ABSTRACT:
A polar leapfrog filter includes at least one polar network. The polar network comprises a differentiator constituted by an operational amplifier having input and output terminals, and a first integrator formed by a first capacitor for providing negative feedback to the operational amplifier and a first variable transconductance amplifier; and a second integrator formed by a second capacitor for providing negative feedback to the first integrator, and a second variable transconductance amplifier. A differentiator is provided at each of the input and output stages of the filter. In the case where two or more said polar networks are incorporated, an additional differentiator is provided between the polar networks. The total number of all the circuit units constituting the filter is selected to provide odd order and equal order for the filter. The circuit units are connected in such a manner that leapfrog type negative feedback is effected.
