Fundamental Frequency Limitations in Current-mode Sallen-key Filters

چکیده
Single-amplifier filter biquads and especially Sallen-Key filters are widely used to build higher-order filter cascades. This paper investigates high-frequency current amplifier non-idealities and their effects on all-pole Sallen-Key filter biquads. It is shown that a non-ideal current amplifier input causes parasitic zeros in the filter transfer function, and thus imposes fundamental limitations on the realisable pole frequency. Design equations are given, providing compensation for the amplifier’s port impedances and its phase lag, by predistortion of the component values. It is also shown how design specifications for a current-amplifier can be derived from the filter specification, minimising the amplifier’s power dissipation. Finally, a video-frequency lowpass filter is discussed.

A 0.18μm CMOS DDCCII for Portable LV-LP Filters
In this paper a current mode very low voltage (LV) (1 V) and low power (LP) (21 μW) differential difference second generation current conveyor (CCII) is presented. The circuit is developed by applying the current sensing technique to a fully balanced version of a differential difference amplifier (DDA) so to design a suitable LV LP integrated version of the so-called differential difference CCI...
متن کاملMinimizing Component-Variation Sensitivity in Single Op Amp Filters - AN738
By delving a little more deeply into the Sallen-Key filter's component sensitivities, we discover a "sweet spot" in the mathematical analysis that allows the design of simple, single op amp filters whose performance rivals that of more complicated filters. This approach has been useful in extending the utility of Sallen-Key filters. Dozens of filter topologies have been devised over the years, ...
متن کاملCorrection of the Attenuation of the Low-pass Biquad in the Current Mode Based on Prototype in Voltage Mode
The second order Sallen-Key low-pass filter structures have one disadvantage in the voltage and current mode, it is a decreasing of the attenuation in the stopband. This fact is caused by losses of the amplification factor of active elements at high frequencies. Some solutions of this problem had been already published for circuits working in the voltage mode. This article presents one of the p...

The design procedure of low-sensitivity, low-pass (LP) 2-and 3-order class-4 Sallen and Key active resistance-capacitance (RC) allpole filters, using impedance tapering, has already been published [1]. In this paper desensitization using impedance tapering is applied to HP and BP 2-order filters. It is shown that HP filters have dual properties to LP filters in the sense of sensitivity. Among v...
متن کاملImplementation of Sallen-Key and Multi-Feedback (MFB) Architecture for Higher Order Butterworth Filters
Filter design specifications can be manifest in all manner of necessity, whether they are high-pass, low-pass, band-pass, or stop-band filters. In addition, the parameters for such filters are defined for a very specific application. A design for a lowpass filter with a pass-band of 2k Hz and a stop-band of 4k will be discussed. The further properties of the filter are to allow for a 48 dB drop...
