A novel design of a fully programmable switched current filter.

In this study, the design of a programmable infinite impulse response switched current (SI) filter is presented. The characteristics of the filter are fully programmable by simply varying the values of out-of-chip DC current sources. The programmable switched current filter mainly consists of SI delay cells and SI multipliers. A high-performance class AB grounded gate SI memory cell is used as a basic building block. Spice simulation results are presented to show the functionality of the programmable filter. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
