Abstract
A leapfrog filter comprising a first and a second integrator each consisting of an operational amplifier and integrating capacitor. The leapfrog filter includes differential amplifier which is arranged to differentially supply current to the first and second integrators through a first and a second current source circuit respectively; and a third current source circuit for adjusting the sum of currents supplied to the first and second current source circuits, wherein characteristics such as the center frequency f.sub.o and quality factor Q of the leapfrog filter are controlled by adjusting the respective current values.
