ABSTRACT:
An active low-pass filter suitable as a 90.degree. phase shifter circuit is provided which requires few external components when formed as an IC. The current resulting from the input signal outputted from a first impedance element is amplified by a first current amplifier, and the resulting output current is converted by a first converting means to a voltage, which is supplied via a second impedance element to a second current amplifier; the output current of the second current amplifier is converted by a second converting means to a voltage, which is outputted as a filter output, while the current corresponding to the output voltage of the second converting means is negatively fed back into the inputs of the first and second current amplifiers; furthermore, at least the current amplification factor of the first current amplifier is made controllable, thereby permitting the cut-off frequency to be varied arbitrarily.
