Abstract
Developments in integrated continous time filters are reviewed. For completeness, well-established techiques are included in the discussion; however, emphasis is placed on emerging techiques, ideas that are at the experimental stage, and promising ideas that, although not recent, have yet to be adopted on a large scale.
