A transconductance filter (200) comprises multiple stages of a transconductor (110,120,130) having an input and an output, and a switch (260,265,270) coupled between the output and the voltage source. The switch is operatively responsive to the control signal for coupling and decoupling the voltage source directly to the output of the transconductor at least prior to the time the filter is required to filter the input voltage signal. The voltage source is within a predetermined input voltage range of the transconductor defined by a region in which a transconductance of the transconductor is substantially constant and positive.
