Analysis and realization of a switched fractional-order-capacitor integrator

摘要

Using fractional calculus, we analyze a classical switched-capacitor integrator when a fractional-order capacitor is employed in the feed-forward path. We show that using of a fractional-order capacitor, significantly large time constants can be realized with capacitances in the feedback path much smaller in value when compared with a conventional switched-capacitor integrator. Simulations and experimental results using a commercial super-capacitor with fractional-order characteristics confirmed via impedance spectroscopy are provided.
