CIRCUIT STRUCTURE FOR SYNTHESIZING TIME - CONTINUAL FILTERS

This invention relates to a circuit structure of the feedforward type with programmable zeroes, particularly for synthesizing time-continual filters. This structure comprises a pair of amplification cells interconnected at least one interconnection node and connected between a first signal input of a first cell and an output terminal of the second cell, each cell comprising a pair of transistors which have a conduction terminal in common and have the other conduction terminals coupled respectively to a first voltage reference through respective bias members. The structure further comprises a circuit leg connecting a node of the first cell to the output terminal and comprising a transistor which has a control terminal connected to the node of the first cell, a first conduction terminal connected to the output terminal, and a second conduction terminal coupled to a second voltage reference through a capacitor. Thus, a released "zero" can be introduced in the right semiplane of the pole-zero complex plane to improve the flattening of group gain.
