Abstract :
A 100MHz centre frequency, 10MHz bandwidth 6th order Butterworth bandpass filter using a leap-frog gm-C structure is described. Fully differential Nauta OTAs are used in the design, which include compensation of parasitic output resistance and feed-forward effects to obtain high Q. A mixed-signal, on-chip tuning system based on Dishal´s method is described. The filter and tuning system have been simulated using Mosis 0.18mm BSIM 3v3 models and PSpice
