Abstract

A negative capacitance converter is used in combination with a buffer circuit to form an electrical shunt circuit. The negative capacitance converter and the buffer circuit, together, minimize or eliminate oscillations of a negative impedance generated by the electrical shunt circuit. Additionally, a specific configuration of the negative capacitance converter is used to provide optimum stability. The buffer circuit includes a Riordan-type circuit, with the negative capacitance converter being substituted for one of the impedance elements of the Riordan-type circuit. Resistors are used to replace the other impedance elements of the Riordan-type circuit. An additional capacitor is placed across one of the operational amplifiers of the Riordan-type circuit, in order to provide additional stability.
