Antoniou Inductance-Simulation Circuit

The Antoniou Inductance-Simulation Circuit Derivation

Exactly how does the Inductance-Simulation Circuit work like an induc-
tor? We can start by asking, how should it work?. From an electrical circuit
point of view, what properties make an inductor an inductor?
The key is how it works in terms of an electrical circuit! As we know, an
inductor can be described by referring to two domains of energy: electrical
and magnetic. In this case, we are not trying to use the magnetic elds the
inductor creates; we only care about current to voltage relationship in the
circuit that the inductor used in. This would be a dierent conversation if we
were trying to use the inductor as a transformer, or in any other application
that uses an inductors magnetic eld.
The current to voltage relationship of the inductor is
v(t) = L
di(t)
dt
(1)
+
v
i
To make things clear, this equation is our goal. We want to make a
circuit that has this relationship at the terminals. If we achieve this, then
we are simulating an inductor.
We will use the Antoniou Inductance-Simulation Circuit as our prime
example.

The point is that we should be able to use this circuit in place of an
inductor. While it may or may not be obvious, we dont particularly care
whats going on inside the Antoniou Circuit as long as the terminal relation-
ship (the relationship between V
1
and I
1
) is the same as an inductor.
i.e. if we can show that
V
1
(t) = L
1
dI
1
(t)
dt
. (2)
Before we go any further, I would like to express the terminal relation-
ship of an inductor in a slightly dierent fashion by applying the Laplace
transform. We can say that current to voltage relationship of the inductor is
V (s)
I(s)
= Ls (3)
So now if we show that the Antoniou Circuit has a terminal relationship
of
V
1
(s)
I
1
(s)
= L
1
s (4)
then it simulates the inductor.
How would we begin to show the terminal relationship of the Antoniou Cir-
cuit?

The concept is simple: using very basic theorems in all the right places
and some algebra, we must get the relationship between V
1
and I
1
.
Lets start with something simple, what are the voltages at the input
terminals of the IDEAL op-amps?

From the ideal op-amp model we know that the voltage at the + and -
terminal of an op-amp is the same. Knowing this we can say that:
V
1 I

R

R

C

R
10

At this point we can apply Ohms Law (V = IR) to nd the current

passing through R

,

How much current is passing through the positive terminal of A
1
? By the
assumptions of an ideal op-amp, we know its zero. From this, we know how
much current is passing through C
9
.

Now that we know the current passing through C
9
, can we nd out the
voltage across C
9
?
Recall, the terminal relationship of a capacitor is:
4
i(t) = C
dv(t)
dt
. (5)
+
v
i
Here we will apply the Laplace transform to this terminal relationship
and get:
I(s) = CsV (s) (6)
or (7)
V (s) =
I(s)
Cs
(8)
At this point we know enough to nd out the voltage across C
9
, and the
voltage at the node between R
9
and C
9
. Knowing the current going through
C
9
, we know the voltage across C
9
is
V

(10)
And the voltage at the node between R
9
and C
9
is the voltage across C
9
plus the voltage across R
10
which is
V
C

+ V

At this point you may realize that we now know the voltage across R

Implementing Ohms Law, we also know the current:

At this point we go back to basics. We know that no current goes through
the input terminals of the op-amps. Thus, we know that no current goes to
the negative terminal of A
2
and no current goes into the negative terminal
of A
1
. Therefore, all the current from R
9
has nowhere to go except directly
through R
8
.

Knowing the current going through R

allows us to know the voltage

From here we know the current going through R

Now, we nally have the terminal relationship of the Antoniou Inductance-
Simulation Circuit. Lets backtrack for a second and recall what our goal
was... We wanted a circuit that had the same terminal relationship as an
inductor.
v(t) = L
di(t)
dt
(21)
+
v
i
V (s)
I(s)
= sL (22)
In our case
