Title :
A voltage-tuned gyrator
Abstract :
A gyrator circuit is constructed such that the conversion factor of the gyrator, and hence the resonant frequency of a tuned circuit, is a function of the transconductances of the bipolar transistors. The circuit allows the resonant frequency to be varied over several octaves by means of an accurately predetermined voltage-frequency relationship.
