TL;DR: In this paper, a bandwidth and wavelength programmable silicon double microring optical filter that can be automatically, accurately, and repeatably set to an optimal Butterworth shape for maximum passband flatness is presented.
Abstract: We demonstrate a bandwidth and wavelength programmable silicon double microring optical filter that can be automatically, accurately, and repeatably set to an optimal Butterworth shape for maximum passband flatness. The algorithm uses a critical coupling condition to set the Butterworth shapes, followed by bandwidth tuning using a calibration dataset for the coupling coefficients. Silicon microrings with independently tunable phase shifts and coupling coefficients were designed for and fabricated at a foundry to demonstrate the method. Fabrication variations and thermal crosstalk are also compensated automatically.

TL;DR: In this paper, an UHF third order bandpass filter based on an high-Q active inductor (AI) is described and measurement results, performed on a prototype board, are presented and compared with software simulations.
Abstract: In this article, an UHF third order bandpass filter based on an high-Q active inductor (AI) is described and measurement results, performed on a prototype board, are presented and compared with software simulations. The designed AI includes a passive variable phase- and amplitude-compensating network and a highly linear inverting amplifier, forming a gyrator-C architecture that gives to the filter also frequency and amplitude tuneability proprieties. The fabricated Butterworth filter has a center frequency of 600 MHz and a measured noise figure of 11 dB with a 5 dBm 1-dB compression point and a 82 dB dynamic range. All passive components values have been chosen to allow the circuit to be completely integrated in a standard IC design. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

21 May 2006TL;DR: An active inductor based bandpass radio-frequency filter circuit topology is presented that achieves a wide tuning range and is designed, simulated, and laid out in a 0.18mum CMOS process.
Abstract: An active inductor based bandpass radio-frequency (RF) filter circuit topology is presented that achieves a wide tuning range. Based on the proposed structure, a prototype 2/sup th/-order filter is designed, simulated, and laid out in a 0.18/spl mu/m CMOS process. The center frequency of the filter can be tuned from 880MHz to 3.72GHz. The quality factor of the filter can also be tuned. The filter, including the input and output buffers, consumes between 12 to 26mW from a 1.8V supply and occupies a chip area of 115/spl mu/m /spl times/ 70/spl mu/m.

TL;DR: A novel miniaturised dual-mode bandpass filter with multi-arc resonators is proposed, which can be reduced significantly by using the microstrip dual- mode resonator consisting ofmulti-arcs and insertion loss and spurious response suppression are improved.
Abstract: A novel miniaturised dual-mode bandpass filter with multi-arc resonators is proposed. The size of the dual-mode filter can be reduced significantly by using the microstrip dual-mode resonator consisting of multi-arcs; meanwhile insertion loss and spurious response suppression are improved. A prototype filter is designed and implemented at 3.6 GHz with 2.8% fractional bandwidth, which shows a low passband insertion loss of 1.02 dB and a wide stopband with rejection better than 20 dB up to about 8.5 GHz.
