Abstract
This paper presents a new realization of synthetic transformer using off the shelf active blocks. This proposed transformer is designed using operational transconductance amplifier (OTA), voltage differencing current conveyor (VDCC), resistor and capacitor. Use of VDCC helps to utilizes benefits of both voltage differencing unit and current conveyor. The working of proposed circuit is verified through simulations in LTSPICE using TSMC 180nm process characteristics. The proposed circuit offers the feature of adjusting primary and secondary self-inductances and mutual inductance independently. The bias current of the VDCC is used to control the primary and secondary self-inductance and mutual inductance of synthetic transformer.
Keywords: Synthetic transformer, mutually coupled circuit, OTA, VDCC
