Abstract :
This paper introduces a novel floating gyrator circuit. The circuit is based on two differential pair stages used as voltage controlled current sources (VCCS). In order to characterize the component, an accurate passive model is extracted by means of a technique based on symbolic analysis. A prototype has been designed using the Philips ED02AH PHEMT foundry process to validate the proposed model
