Abstract

Many electronic systems use active devices like operational amplifiers, operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) that use voltage mode of operations, which have their own advantages and disadvantages. Now-a-days, the current mode of operation plays an important role compared to the voltage mode of operation. In this paper, surveys on various generations of the current conveyors are conducted. From this present study, it has been observed that second generation current conveyor is the most widely used one. The mathematical analysis of the second-generation current conveyors is performed. The simulation results are carried out using Multisim Software. It has been observed that using second generation current conveyors, low power applications can be designed. Some of the applications of the current conveyor are explained with illustrations.

Keywords
