Abstract :
This paper presents general first and second order switched-current building blocks. The circuits can be easily implemented in standard CMOS technology without the need of a capacitance layer. The circuits can be used to realize almost any transfer function with high accuracy. A sixth-order cascade Chebyshev band-pass filter was realized using the proposed building blocks and simulated using HSPICE. The simulation results were very favorable
