Özet

The aim of this paper is proposing an alternative method to Gorski-Popiel Technique in realization of synthetic transformers. A new synthetic floating transformer (FT) circuit is also given. The proposed synthetic transformer circuit uses two current backward transconductance amplifiers (CBTAs), three resistors, and two grounded capacitors. The primary selfinductance, the secondary self-inductance, and the mutual inductance can be independently controlled and can be tuned electronically by changing the biasing current of the employed CBTAs. It has a good sensitivity performance with respect to tracking errors. A band-pass filter is also realized to test the performance of the proposed synthetic transformer circuit. The validity of the proposed synthetic transformer circuit is demonstrated by PSPICE simulations and experimental results.
