Abstract
A high-pass filter in particular for high-frequency applications and of the type comprising at least one input terminal (IN) and at least one output terminal (OUT) between which is defined a transfer function (FdT) and is inserted a biquadratic cell (18) incorporating a series of transconductance stages (2, 3, 4, 5) comprises a generator circuit (29) of variable currents (i.sub.K1, i.sub.K2) connected between a pair of stages (2, 3) of the biquadratic cell (18) and a voltage reference (GND). Said generator allows introduction of programmable zeroes in the transfer function (FdT) of the filter (20).
