In this paper, a current-mode analog variable finite-impulse-response (FIR) filter with variable tap coefficient circuits is proposed for frequency selective wireless personal area network(WPAN) system or terminals. From the circuit simulation the operation of the 7-tap FIR filter is confirmed. The 0.0625-step tap coefficient circuit is designed and fabricated with $0.8[{\mu}m]$ CMOS technology. The proposed FIR filter has a variable length of taps and variable coefficients, so it has a potential for being used to frequency selective WPAN system or frequency selective wireless communication terminals.
