专利汇可以提供Tuneable microelectronic active band-pass filter专利检索,专利查询,专利分析的服务。并且A microelectronic or integrated circuit active band-pass filter uses only resistors, capacitors, and active devices, is stable and has filter characteristics equivalent to an LC band-pass filter. A known band-pass amplifier comprises an operational amplifier and a negative feedback tuneable RC band reject network, such as a twin-T or bridged-T notch filter, or parallel high- and low-pass filters. To this is added a positive feedback circuit including an adjustable attenuator (for Q control) and a series feedback capacitor, and also a series input capacitor, that are effectively tuned to resonance at the band reject network center frequency. The positive feedback circuit thus has inductive characteristics at the passband frequencies, with resulting Q enhancement. The pass bandwidth and center frequency or high- and low-pass frequencies are tuneable independently and electronically by preferably fabricating the attenuator and band reject network in distributed RC form using insulated gate field effect transistors.,下面是Tuneable microelectronic active band-pass filter专利的具体信息内容。
