Abstract :
Two new general immittance converter (GIC) JFET configurations for the realization of voltage-controlled impedances (VCI´s) are proposed. Compared with previously reported structures, the circuits exhibit wide dynamic range and low distortion properties that are frequency independent, even for nonresistive VCI´s. We consider the influence of op-amp frequency dependent gain and derive conditions for obtaining high Q-factor inductances and capacitances. We also present computed and experimental results for several voltage-controlled GIC-type biquads that are built based on the proposed circuits
