Switched-capacitor filters

Abstract

A novel technique for building active filters using switched-capacitor (SC) circuits is proposed. Principles of operation, methods of control, analysis, and design of a typical SC filter are presented. To assess its effectiveness, the technique is used to control input current harmonics in a phase-controlled converter. It is shown that a wide range of harmonics can be controlled using a single filter.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
