ABSTRACT:
A transverse form analog finite impulse response filter. The filter has an input and an output. A first set of passive delay elements connected in serial to the input, and a second set of passive delay elements are connected in serial to the output. Transconductors are connected in parallel with the first plurality of passive delay elements and the second plurality of passive delay elements. A set of buffer amplifiers is connected to the passive delay elements in the first set of passive delay elements and in the set of passive delay elements. The buffer amplifiers cause a reduction in loss in the passive delay elements.
