Voltage-Mode Multifunction Filters Employing a Single DVCC and Grounded Capacitors

In this paper, two novel voltage-mode (VM) single-input-three-output (SITO) second-order multifunction analog filters for simultaneously realizing low-pass, bandpass, and high-pass responses from the same topology are proposed. They employ a single dual-output differential voltage current conveyor (DVCC), two grounded capacitors, and three resistors. Both of the proposed filters offer the following two important features: the simultaneous realization of low-pass, bandpass, and high-pass responses and the use of a minimum number of grounded capacitors and a single DVCC. The nonideal gain effects of the developed structures are examined. To show the performance of the proposed VM filters, computer simulation results using the SPICE program, together with ideal ones, are drawn.
