Abstract :
In this brief, a novel hybrid inductor is proposed. The circuit is a hybrid of an operational amplifier and a current conveyor with three passive elements, and offers advantages over conventional current conveyor implementations in its ability to produce high quality factor inductors. Experimental and PSPICE simulation results are presented which verify the theoretical derivations.
