CIM a Current Inverting Metamutator and Its Application to Universal Filters Among Others

Abstract

A new kind of metamutator namely Current Inverting Metamutator, its realizations using different types of active blocks and some of its applications are given in this paper. As a classical application of the metamutator simulation of a memristor and, as an original application, several schemes realizing universal filters are proposed. The post-layout characteristics of both applications, using TSMC 0.13 mu m process parameters with +/- 0.75 V power supply voltage, are presented to confirm the theoretical analysis.
