Abstract:
The second order Sallen-Key low-pass filter structures (so called biquads) in the voltage and the current mode have one common disadvantage. This is a decreasing of the attenuation at high frequencies, because active elements exhibit losses of the amplification. While some solutions for the voltage mode circuits have been already published, but this problem was not satisfactorily solved for circuits working in the current mode. Therefore, this article presents one of the possible solutions of this problem for circuits working in the current mode derived by graph method.
