Novel electronically controllable grounded series/parallel lossy inductor simulator configurations

Keywords: Lossy inductor simulator, electronic tuning, single capacitor, no component matching

Abstract

The objective of this research paper is to propose novel series/parallel Lossy grounded inductor simulation configurations with minimum requirement of active and passive elements. Each presented simulator circuit employs one voltage differencing transconductance amplifier(VDTA) along with single capacitor connected to ground. All the presented simulators are purely resister-free realizations with electronic tuning facility and do not need any requirement of component matching. The performance of presented simulation configurations is also studied under non ideal conditions as well as with the terminal parasitic impedances of VDTA. The behavior of proposed series/parallel R-L impedance simulation circuits is confirmed by some application examples. The theoretical analysis has been validated by running SPICE simulations with TSMC CMOS 0.18 μm process parameters.
