Abstract
Background: The original filter including grounded or virtual ground capacitors can be synthesized by using the NAM expansion. However, so far the filters including floating capacitor, such as Sallen-Key filter, have not been synthesized by means of the NAM expansion. This is a problem to be researched further.
Methods: By using the adjoint network theory, the Sallen-Key filter including floating capacitor first is turned into a current-mode one, which includes a grounded capacitor and a virtual ground capacitor. Then the node admittance matrix, after derived, is extended by using NAM expansion.
Results: At last, one VDTA Sallen-Key filter is received. It employs single compact VDTA and two grounded capacitors.
Conclusion: A Butterworth VDTA second-order frequency filter based on Sallen-Key topology with fo = 100kHz, HLP = -HBP=1, is designed.
Keywords: Current-mode circuit, sallen-Key topology, Butterworth filter, VDTA, adjoint network theorem, nodal admittance matrix expansion.
