In the past few years, advancements in the field of nano circuit design has\nbecome tougher than the demand. Low power devices have emerged\ntremendously.Both voltage mode aswell as current mode devices have proven\nalternative to each other for satisfying the demand of the growing market. As\nsuch, current conveyors have equitably established their uniqueness as an\nimportant circuit design element. The literature available to us during the few\nyears in the field of analog VLSI design, quotes a huge number of application\nelements based on current conveyors. Likely, in this paper, a new tunable low\npower voltage amplifier based on the translinear circuit scheme of second\ngeneration current controlled current conveyor has been proposed. The modeling\nof the circuit presented in this paper employs the minimum number of passive\nelements. The magnitude of the tuning or the amplitude of the voltage presented\nhere, is being controlled by means of two variable resistors. Current conveyor\nsecond generation translinear circuit scheme is taken into consideration to\nimplement the proposed tunable voltage amplifier. CCCII works on the outlines\nof low power and low voltage design. Tunable voltage amplifiers find use in\nanalog as well as in digital signal processing applications.\n
