Abstract

See full text

An integrated biquadratic, continuous-time filter section includes a plurality of operational transconductance amplifiers (OTAs). Simutaneously changing a transconductance (GM) of each of the OTAs is provided by adjusting a differential voltage applied to a plurality of differential transistor pairs of each OTA. Each of the OTAs include a plurality of current sources and a common mode feedback circuit for controlling a common mode output voltage level. Changing the transconductance of the OTA is independent of the common mode voltage level control.
