Abstract

In this paper, a novel fully differential second-generation current conveyor (FDCCII) is presented. The proposed block is useful in mixed-mode applications where fully differential signal processing is required. Furthermore, the FDCCII can be used to realize MOSFET-C filters. The circuit has a bandwidth of about 10 MHz under heavy capacitive loads and can operate from low supply voltages down to ±1.5 V
