Abstract
The small-signal pathological models and equivalent circuits of various CCCIIs are initially developed in this paper. The models are then used in the synthesis of floating gyrators using the CCCIIs. Three different topological types of the floating gyrators, the type I, II and III gyrators, are acquired by the NAM expansion method. The first, employing four CCCIIs, has 96 equivalent realizations, the second, employing two CCCIIs and one BOCCCII, has 32 equivalent realizations, the third, employing one BOCCCII or one BOICCCII and one DOCCCII−, has four equivalent realizations. The analysis and simulation of synthesized circuits show that the used synthesis method is simple, systematic, valid, and powerful.
