Abstract :
A new floating resistor consisting entirely of MOS devices in saturation has been developed. Linearity within ±0.04% is achieved through nonlinearity cancellation via current mirrors over an applied voltage range of ±1 V. The frequency response exceeds 10 MHz, and the resistors are expected to be useful in implementing integrated circuit active RC filters
