Abstract

A new voltage-mode universal biquad filter is presented which can realize all the five standard filter functions namely lowpass, bandpass, highpass, notch, and allpass employing only one CCII as active element. The new circuit is composed of only one CCII, two capacitors, and three resistors, and realizes five generic filter signals without any inverting-type voltage input signals. This is unlike biquad reported by filter structures which employs more active components and needed an inverting-type voltage input signal to realize allpass signal.
