Description

Block Gyrator It can be used to implement inductance using a capacitor. The main advantage of a gyrator is that an equivalent inductance can be created using a capacitor much smaller in size than a coil. In practice, the gyrator is implemented using an operational amplifier and additional passive elements.

Block Gyrator It is an ideal lossless gyrator described by the following equations:



where

  • — input voltage;

  • — output voltage;

  • — current flowing into the positive input terminal;

  • — current flowing from the positive output terminal;

  • — equivalent gyrator conductivity.

Each of the two circuits connected to the primary and secondary windings must have its own block. Electrical Reference.
