Summary :

Continuous-time high-frequency active filters suitable for monolithic implementation by standard low cost bipolar process are presented. Balanced NIC's are used to cancel out the loss of passive RC integrators, thus realizing active loss-less integrators with good high-frequency performance. Two types of balanced integrators are proposed and their quality factors are analyzed. The proposed NIC-integrators are used to realize tunable active filters capable of low-voltage operation and without the drawbacks of the NIC-gyrator filters. As an example of application of the NIC-integrators to leapfrog simulation of RLC ladders a second-order 1 MHz bandpass filter was designed, computer simulated and laboratory tested showing good results.
