Abstract

Two floating inductance (FI) circuits are presented which employ a canonical number of passive components (namely, only two resistors and a capacitor) as well as canonical number of active elements (only two CFOAs) and realize single-resistance-tunable inductance value, without requiring any component-matching or cancellation constraints. The workability of the proposed circuits and their applications has been confirmed by hardware implementation and SPICE simulations based on AD844-type CFOAs.
