Abstract :
With the growing interest in current-mode analogue circuits, this paper introduce an implementation of the second generation current conveyor using CMOS transistors and bipolar junction transistors in order to take the advantages of each one. Circuit details are given and simulation results are shown. The proposed circuit is suitable for implementation using a 0.8 μm BiCMOS process technology. Results indicate that the bandwidth for both the voltage mode and the current mode operation exceed 1 GHz
