Frequency Filters with Current Active Elements
Jeřábek, Jan ; Ondráček,, Oldřich (referee) ; Kolka, Zdeněk (referee) ; Vrba, Kamil (advisor)
This doctoral thesis is focused mainly on research of new current active elements and their applications in frequency filters suitable for current-mode. Work is focused on design of new filtering structures suitable for traditional single-ended signal processing and also on structures suitable for fully-differential applications. The thesis contains three designed general conceptions of KHN-type second-order filters. Adjustability of quality factor and pole frequency is provided by controllable current amplifiers that are placed properly in designed structures. Structures also contain second-generation current conveyors, multiple-output current followers, transconductance amplifiers and their fully-differential equivalents. There are lot of possible solutions that could be obtained from general structures, some of them are presented in the work. The thesis also presents several multifunctional and also single-purpose filtering structures of second-order and two variants of n-th order synthetic elements which are suitable to realize higher order filters both in single ended and fully differential type. In each case, functionality of new solutions is verified by simulations and in several cases also by real measurement.

Popelka, Petr ; Vrba, Kamil (referee) ; Kubánek, David (advisor)
This thesis deals with design and use synthetic circuit elements with higher-order immittance with controlled current sources to implement the frequency filters. Controlled current sources which are derived from the voltage variations are presented. They are current follower, current invertor and current operational amplifier. Low-pass and high-pass filter which are used synthetic elements are simulated on computer. The influence of real properities of active elements and passive elements tolerances on filter functionality is investigated. Selected circuit of frequency filter is realized and measured the frequency characteristic.

Electronically Configurable Transfer Structures
Langhammer, Lukáš ; Hospodka, Jiří (referee) ; Vávra, Jiří (referee) ; Šotner, Roman (advisor)
Práce se zaměřuje na vývoj a výzkum v oblasti elektronicky rekonfigurovatelných přenosových struktur. Primárním cílem je návrh těchto struktur za užití moderních elektronicky řiditelných aktivních prvků. V práci je prezentováno množství elektronicky rekonfigurovatelných filtračních struktur, jež byly vytvořeny za užití různých návrhových metod. Důraz je dále kladen na možnost řídit některý z typických parametrů filtru pomocí řiditelných aktivních prvků. Práce dále obsahuje několik obvodových návrhů aktivních prvků či stavebních bloků s vhodně řešenou elektronickou řiditelností, tak, aby tyto prvky/bloky mohly být dále použity pro návrh elektronicky rekonfigurovatelných filtrů. Správnost návrhu jednotlivých zapojení je podpořena PSpice a Cadence simulacemi s modely na tranzistorové úrovni. Vybraná zapojení jsou dále realizována za pomocí dostupných aktivních prvků a podrobena experimentálnímu měření.

Frequency filters with tunable current amplifier
Jemelík, Lukáš ; Lattenberg, Ivo (referee) ; Jeřábek, Jan (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the designing of active frequency filters of the second – order which are make use of active elements. These filters were designed by means of autonomous circuits. Digitally Controlled Current Amplifier DCCA and Multiple Output Current Follower MO-CF were used as active elements. Designed filters works in current mode. The bachelor thesis is divided into five chapters. In the introductory part there are described general characters of frequency filters, the second part contains the description of the active elements, the third part includes the method of construction high – order filters. In fourth part there are described particular circuitry, their transmission functions and confirmation of their functionality in computer software.

Non-linear Circuits with Controlled Current Sources
Dolák, Jan ; Hanák, Pavel (referee) ; Kubánek, David (advisor)
This thesis treats of problems of nonlinear circuits. In introduction the basic possibilities of solving nonlinear circuits are described. Then the basic information on modern current active elements is mentioned, for example current follower, current operational amplifier and current conveyor. In the next part of this thesis the problem of real characteristics of semiconductor diodes is described, major attention is focused on reverse recovery time. Three various types of circuits with nonlinear elements are described in this masters thesis. The first type of circuits are diode precision rectifiers, the full-wave rectifiers containing voltage operational amplifier are most explored, current follower and other active components are described in previous chapters. Simulations in PSpice were executed for each of these circuits. Then the attention was devoted to increase of maximum working frequence. The minimum necessary amplitude of input signal was also analyzed. In the following part two designs of diode function converters are processed, function converter with voltage operational amplifier and function converter with current follower. For each of the diode function converters designed, simulations were executed to find their real properties. The variety of diode voltage limiters and diode current limiters are the third type of nonlinear circuits described, from which the upper limiter and double limiter are investigated in more detail. Simulations were executed for all limiters and their functionality and problems connected with their usage for limitation of high frequency signals were analyzed. In the last part of the thesis there is described the practical realization of precise rectifier, which showed the best ability to process high frequency signals of all investigated circuits. This circuit was realized so that it is able to operate in current and mixed mode. Measured values of real circuits were compared with values gained from the simulations.

Proposal of the fractal order filtering structures
Uher, Jiří ; Dvořák, Jan (referee) ; Langhammer, Lukáš (advisor)
This thesis deals with the fractional (1+)-order filters. The proposed filters operate in the current-mode. The derivation of the filters has been achieved using a third-order aproximation of the coresponding fractional-order transfer functions. It also describes active elements such as universal current conveyor, current follower and operational transconductance amplifier. In the end of this thesis some new circuit solutions of the fractional-order filter are proposed. Then the proposed filters are realized and experimentally measured.

Pánek, David ; Kubánek, David (referee) ; Langhammer, Lukáš (advisor)
This document is focused on already existing single-ended frequency filters with modern active components working in current mode and their modification into fully-differential ended form. After the modification both versions were compared between each other. The first part informs about problems concerning analogue frequency filters. The second part deals with used active components - MO-CF (Multiple Output Current Follower), BOTA (Balanced transconductance amplifier), UCC (universal current conveyor), VDTA (Voltage differencing transconductance amplifier), CDTA (Current differencing transconductance amplifier) and VDCC (voltage differencing current conveyor). Four circuits have been chosen and transformed into their differential form. Two circuits have been chosen and realised into PCB and then practicaly measured in a laboratory. The last part is a summary of simulations and measured results and check of circuits behavior result.
