Integrated Filters for Short Range Wireless and Biomedical Applications [Paperback]

This book describes the design of low-voltage analog integrated filters using current mirrors, one of the most common building blocks both in analog and mixed-signal VLSI circuits, offering the advantages of low-voltage operation, derivation of resistorless topologies and electronic adjustment capability of their frequency characteristics.? Several design examples are described, using current mirrors that fulfill the requirements of modern low-power wireless and biomedical applications, such as universal biquadratic filter topologies, complex filters for Bluetooth/ZigBee low-IF receivers and Wavelet filters for cardiac signal detection. The experimental results from the fabricated chips will also be presented, showing their utility in modern low-voltage low-power portable devices.This book describes the design of low-voltage analog integrated filters using current mirrors, which offer the advantages of low-voltage operation, derivation of resistorless topologies and the capability of electronic adjustment of frequency characteristics.Introduction.- Universe Biquads Using Current Mirrors.- Complex Filters for Short Range Wireless Networks.- Filters for Biomedical Applications.- Electronically Adjustable Current Mirrors.- Conclusions.
