Phase-compensated filter circuit with reduced power consumption

A filter circuit, comprising:

• a plurality of integrator stages, each stage including a voltage-to-current converter to convert an input voltage into a current supplied to an output thereof and a capacitor coupled to the output of the voltage-to-current converter, a voltage charged in the capacitor being supplied to a next stage as an output of each stage;
• a capacitor serving as a feed-forward coupling that couples the output of at least one stage of said plurality of integrator stages to a last output node;
• and
• a voltage-to-current converter having an input thereof coupled to the output of a last stage of said plurality of integrator stages and an output thereof coupled to said last output node,
• wherein the voltage-to-current converter having the output thereof coupled to the last output node is a resistor.
