Abstract :
A switched-current integrator configuration with greatly improved sensitivity to transistor mismatch is described. Forward-Euler, backward-Euler, and bilinear-z mappings are described, as well as an integrator which responds to the derivative of the input current. An universal integrator configuration which performs an identical algorithm to a well-known switched-capacitor universal integrator is developed. It can be used to translate known switched-capacitor filter topologies into switched-current counterparts, as is demonstrated by the simulation of a sixth-order low-pass filter
