Abstract
A class of two-terminal active networks which simulate low-noise-temperature resistors is disclosed. A single differential-input operational amplifier connected with a feedback resistor in an inverting amplifier configuration comprises the active element of the network. A resistive voltage divider feedback arrangement comprises the remainder of the circuit. Either positive or negative simulated resistors can be obtained with a wide range of equivalent resistance values and effective noise temperatures.
