The proposed circuit realizes current-mode low pass, high pass and band pass filter functions simultaneously with a single current source at the input. The band reject and all pass filters can also be obtained from the proposed circuit without any extra hardware. The proposed circuit employs three passive grounded elements and two CFTAs. Linear electronic control of natural frequency ω0 is available in the proposed circuit. The quality factor can be independently adjusted through grounded resistor. The proposed circuit employs two grounded capacitors and a grounded resistor along with two CFTAs. The grounded resistor can be replaced by an OTA based circuit for linear electronic control of quality factor Q0. The circuit exhibits low active and passive sensitivities for ω0 and Q0. Simulation results are obtained using PSPICE software which is in conformity with the theoretical findings.展开更多

The proposed circuit provides electronic control of ω0 and independent condition of oscillation (CO). It is found that the oscillator works very satisfactorily and pure sinusoidal waveforms are available at the outputs. The PSPICE simulation confirms the theoretical results. The proposed oscillator circuit employs only two VDTAs, along with two grounded capacitor and single grounded resistor. The circuit exhibits low active and passive sensitivities for ω0. Simulation results are obtained by using PSPICE software with TSMC CMOS 0.18 um process parameters.展开更多

The FIA technique involves the complete analysis including sampling and washing. The flow injection analysis is an analytical method for the measurement of the chemical oxygen demand by using the photochemical column. This method uses a bulky setup and takes 10 minutes to 15 minutes to get the output result which is a tedious and time consuming job. If the conventional method is continuously used for a long time then it is stable only for 15 days. The purpose of this paper is to propose a new floating gate photo catalytic sensor (FGPCS) approach which has low power consumption and more user-friendly, and it is fast in operation by the modeling and optimization of sensor used for water quality monitoring. The proposed model operates under sub-threshold conditions which are appreciated in large integrated system design. The results of simulation are found to be fairly in agreement with the theoretical predictions. The results exhibit near linear variations of parameters of interest with appreciably reduced response time.展开更多
