Abstract

A demodulator circuit includes a gyrator circuit forming a derived equivalent inductance which is used in a demodulating circuit. The gyrator circuit has a first operational transconductance amplifier and a second operational transconductance amplifier, wherein a second input terminal of the first operational transconductance amplifier is connected to a first output terminal of the second operational transconductance amplifier. A second output terminal of the first operational transconductance amplifier is connected to a second input terminal of the second operational transconductance amplifier. Both of the second input terminal of the first operational transconductance amplifier and the second input terminal of the second operational transconductance amplifier are grounded via a constant dc voltage. A first output terminal of the first operational transconductance amplifier is connected to a first input terminal of the second operational transconductance amplifier. A capacitor is connected between the first and second output terminals of the first operational transconductance amplifier. A first input terminal of the first operational transconductance amplifier serves as an input t…
