| Abstract: | The Z Copy‐Controlled Gain‐Current Differencing Buffered Amplifier (ZC‐CG‐CDBA) is introduced in the paper. In addition to the well‐known CDBA, the input Current Differencing Unit (CDU) is modified and completed by special circuits. Analogously to the conventional CDBA, the z terminal is internally connected to the input of voltage buffer. The current gain from the difference input p, n to the output z can be controlled electronically or by an external device. In addition, an independent high‐impedance output zc is available, providing difference current Ip?In. In the paper, the extension of application range of the ZC‐CG‐CDBA compared with the conventional CDBA is referred to. The novel circuit element is assembled from commercial integrated circuits and its principle is verified experimentally on a universal second‐order filter. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
