Abstract :
In this paper, relationship between the IIP3 of the doubly-terminated ladder low-pass Gm-C filter and the IIP3 of the transconductors employed in the filter is derived. It was found that the IIP3 of the Gm-C filter IIP3 is about 1.2 dBV higher than the IIP3 of the transconductors. Simulation results are found to be in excellent agreement with the analytical results.
