In this paper a second order log-domain bandpass filter using multiple input translinear elements (MITEs) operating at a 3V supply. We enhance the capabilities of the filter by utilizing programmable MITE structures as well as programmable current sources, which are covered in this paper. The synthesized bandpass filter is implemented and fabricated using these programmable translinear devices (MITEs). Experimental results are shown from circuit fabricated on a 0.5μm nwell CMOS process available through MOSIS.
