  • Abstract
    We present a section of a second-order low distortion continuous-time filter employing MOSFETs operating in weak inversion. The idea is based upon the recently proposed log-domain filter approach used in bipolar technology. Measured results from a test chip fabricated in 0.8 μ BiCMOS process are presented. Chip power consumption is 1 μW and the tuneable frequency range is 100 Hz-10 kHz
