A broadband tunable microwave floating active inductor is proposed. Its application in the microwave active filter is presented. The design technique is to replace the passive inductor in the conventional LC ladder filter by the proposed floating active inductor. These active filters can, therefore, be implemented in full MMIC form. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
