Original Abstract

The presented research introduces a novel approach to modern modular active device and provides various practical application examples tailored for industrial sensing readouts. Straightforward implementation of single active device-based topologies in frequency bands from kHz up to MHz is presented. These applications include: an electronically linearly tunable special band-pass filter that can be easily modified into a voltage-controlled oscillator, a two-port quadratic transformer, an amplitude modulator, and an equalization circuit (which serves as a fractional-order differentiator and integrator). These circuits benefit from high-impedance voltage input and low-impedance output (easily matched to 50 Omega), high processed signal levels (often reaching hundreds of mV), and simplified topologies without redundant passive elements. These features are especially valuable in tunable and configurable solutions for modern communication, sensing, audio, and consumer electronic systems, as well as in modeling various physical and biological systems. The experiments have been provided by simulations and measurements using device VCA824.
