Abstract
This thesis presents the theory and the development of seventeen current mode novel circuits through mathematical analysis and testing using simulation techniques (based on a well known software of global fame known as PSpice). The entire work is confined to the circuits of filters and oscillators in current mode, which is the trend not only of today but also of tomorrow. Out of seventeen circuits, thirteen are filter circuits and four are oscillator circuits. The work leads to the development of new and improved filter and oscillator circuits for use in instrumentation, communication and in other areas of analogue signal processing. The circuits were designed with an aim to implement these on integrated circuits in CMOS technology.
