1. An active inductor circuit, comprising:

  • a field-effect transistor having a first source/drain adapted for connection with a first voltage source;

    a capacitor coupled between the first voltage source and a gate of the field-effect transistor;

    a resistor coupled between a second source/drain of the field-effect transistor and the gate of the field-effect transistor; and

    a current source coupled between the gate of the field-effect transistor and a second voltage source, a voltage headroom of the active inductor circuit being controlled as a function of at least one of a magnitude of current generated by the current source and a resistance of the resistor.
