A current mode active filter includes a differential amplifier, having two transistors, and a current mirror, having two transistors, connected into a feedback loop. The phase shift of the loop is controlled by one or two grounded capacitors and bias current sources connected to forward bias the base-emitter junctions of the transistors. The frequency of the filter is controlled by varying the dynamic resistances of the base-emitter junctions with the bias current sources. The current mirror increases loop gain, thereby enhancing the Q of the circuit. Improved dynamic range and large-signal performance can be achieved by the addition of two transistors to the current mirror circuit.
