122 CHAPTER 5. BASIC OP-AMP APPLICATIONS<br />

This circuit is also a gyrator, i.e. a two voltage controlled current sources,<br />

where the currents have opposite direction. For more details consult [7].<br />

5.9.1 Capacitor to Inductor Converter<br />

If we choose, for example,<br />

then the GIC becomes<br />

Z 1 = Z 2 = R 1 , Z 3 = R 3 , Z 4 = 1<br />

jωC , Z 5 = R 5 ,<br />

Z = jωR 3 R 5 C .<br />

The circuit will behave as an inductor with inductance L = R 3 R 5 C. If<br />

we chose large resistance values R 3 , R 5 and reasonably large capacitance<br />

values C, we can implement very large inductance values practically impossible<br />

to attain using standard inductors.<br />
