Abstract

Disclosed is a two-terminal active impedance circuit which comprises a transistor having emitter connected to one terminal of the circuit through a resistor, collector and base directly connected to each other, and a capacitor connected between the one terminal and the collector, said base being applied with a bias voltage whereby an imaginary impedance including a negative resistance is provided between the one terminal and other terminal which is connected to the emitter. Active filters having various characteristics are disclosed in which the above impedance circuit are utilized.
