SC resistor, summing integrator and inverting lossy integrator
Short answer
A switched capacitor filter replaces resistors with capacitors and MOS switches, using a two-phase clock. A resistor is simulated by a capacitor C_R switched at frequency f_c, giving R_eq = 1/(f_c C_R). A summing integrator yields V_o = -(f_c/(s C_F))(C1 V1 + C2 V2). An inverting lossy integrator has transfer function T(s) = -(f_c C1/C_F)/(s + f_c C2/C_F).
What is a switched capacitor filter? How resistor, summing integrator and inverting lossy integrator can be realized using switched capacitor filter? Explain with necessary derivations.
Switched capacitor filter
A switched capacitor (SC) filter is an active filter in which every resistor of an active-RC filter is replaced by a capacitor and MOS switches driven by a two-phase non-overlapping clock. The switched capacitor behaves like a resistor , so the filter needs only op-amps, capacitors and switches, all easily built on one MOS chip.
Resistor
Consider a capacitor with two MOS switches driven by non-overlapping clocks and of frequency :
phi1 phi2
V1 ----o/o----+----o/o---- V2

- Phase (left switch closed): charges to ; stored charge .
- Phase (right switch closed): charges/discharges to ; stored charge .
- Charge moved from node 1 to node 2 in one clock period:
- If is much higher than the signal frequency, and are nearly constant over a period, so the average current is
Example: pF at kHz simulates 10 MΩ.
