Fully-differential frequency filter designing with current active elements using signal-flow graphs method
Štork, Petr ; Jeřábek, Jan (referee) ; Langhammer, Lukáš (advisor)
This master’s thesis deals with designing of fully-differential current-mode frequency filters using signal-flow graphs method. The first part is focused on a general description of frequency filters, its function and division. Active elements that create these frequency filters, such as multi-output current follower (MO-CF), balanced or multi-output transconductance amplifier (BOTA, MOTA) and digitally adjustace current amplifier (DACA) are described in the following part. Next, problems and various techniques of designing such filters are discussed on a theoretic basis. In the remaining part of the thesis there are six circuits of frequency filters described in detail; these connections are then transferred of passive elements to a proposed connections, with the assistance of a so-called reflection. Calculations of passive form are stated, as well as results of simulations, where nondifferential and differential variations of these designed frequency filters are compared. Finaly, it has been selected some variants of designs, which has been manufactured, then measured out and resulet has been compare between each other.

Electronically reconfigurable frequency filters
Gajdoš, Adam ; Langhammer, Lukáš (referee) ; Jeřábek, Jan (advisor)
The aim of the thesis was design of reconnection-less and electronically reconfigurable filters of SISO type with non-traditional active elements. Adjustability of bandwidth or quality factor is also required. First part of the thesis deals with theoretical analysis of filters, their operation modes and design of frequency filters using Signal-flow graph method aswell. Last but not least, electronical reconfiguration of transfer function and parasitic analysis was discussed. Another part describes active elements used in the practical part of thesis. Behaviors and design of active elements using existing circuits (e.g. UCC,EL2082) are described and their transformation into the Signal-flow graph form too. In the practical part five reconnection-less and reconfigurable filters of SISO type was designed using SNAP program. Simulations were done using Orcad program with ideal and real simulation models of active elements. Last part deals with filter design in EAGLE and experimental measurement.

Multifunctional analog frequency filters
Žůrek, Radomil ; Koton, Jaroslav (referee) ; Minarčík, Martin (advisor)
Main topic of this bachelor thesis are the frequency filters and their application. It presents multifunction frequency filter circuits with focus on active circuit elements like current conveyors (GCC), voltage conveyors (GVC) and transconductance amplifiers (OTA), which operate in both voltage and current modes. Then it presents the outcomes of designing 26 second order frequency filters, all operating in both voltage and current modes. It discusses in theory the problematics of M-C graph design, which is graphics-based analogy of voltage and current incidental matrices. Selected circuit designs are examined as examples with their transfer functions determined and results presented as module frequency characteristics. Individual M-C graphs (signal flow graph) are designed for each filter circuit. In conclusion are summarized the characteristics of M-C graphs and their suitable applications.

Design of frequency filters with non-traditional transconductance elements
Gajdoš, Adam ; Vrba, Kamil (referee) ; Jeřábek, Jan (advisor)
The aim of Bachelor’s thesis was to study, design and practically realize controllable frequency filters, working in the current mode, using non-traditional active elements, containing a combination of transconductance amplifiers with current conveyors. Thesis deals in the theoretical part with the basic division of frequency filters, operating modes of circuits and design method of signal flow graphs, which are used for design of the circuits in the practical part. The next section describes all the active elements that are used for circuits realization. In the practical part five circuits are designed with the element VDCC and one circuit with CCTA. Simulation is performed on all circuits using a previously defined model of the real UCC. Last part of thesis describes the design of the PCB and the results of experimental measurements for chosen circuit.

Utilization of signal-flow graphs in design of the fully-differential filters
Žůrek, Radomil ; Kubánek, David (referee) ; Jeřábek, Jan (advisor)
The dissertation deals with the design of fully differential frequency filters using the signal flow graphs. It presents the procedures for designing frequency filters, focusing on the active elements such as multiple-output current followers (MO-CF) and digitally adjustable current amplifiers (DACA), which work in a current mode. It is theoretically discussed the issue of designing the M-C graphs, which are the graphic analogy of voltage and current incidence matrices. There are also presented three designs of 2nd order frequency filter circuits using the indirect method of design by M-C graphs and one circuit design using the direct method. The results of each simulation and measurement are presented in a module frequency characteristics. Finally, there is a summary of M-C graphs characteristics and applicability.
