High input impedance voltage-mode universal biquadratic filter with one input and five outputs using current conveyors

A new high input impedance voltage-mode universal biquadratic filter with one input terminal and five output terminals is presented. The proposed circuit uses three differential voltage current conveyors (DVCCs), four resistors, and two grounded capacitors. The proposed circuit can realize all the standard filter functions--lowpass, bandpass, highpass, notch, and allpass--simultaneously, without changing the passive elements. The proposed circuit enjoys the features of high input impedance, orthogonal control of resonance angular frequency and quality factor, use of only grounded capacitors, and low active and passive sensitivities.
