Although a variety of applications of the OTRAs have been reported in literature, the pole of the transresistance gain Rm of the OTRA has been usually considered to affect the performance of the circuits due to being parasitic. In this paper, the pole of the OTRA has been used to evolve some simple OTRA-based active-R circuits for realizing a synthetic inductor, single resistance controlled oscillator and low-pass/band-pass filter. The workability of all the proposed circuits has been verified by SPICE simulations and all the new circuits have been found to work as predicted by theory. The exemplary propositions suggest that it is worthwhile to further investigate new circuit designs using OTRA-pole.
