PART9Active Filter Circuit

Experiment 3 :Band-Pass Filter

Theory

As in fig.9-9, about under 10 is proper for the Q for basic multiple feedback band pass filter. This is called multiple feedback because on more feedback path is added. In other words, the input of OP-Amp is connected to the inverting terminal. The center frequency for this circuit is determined in the formula below.

f_o=1/2πC∙√(1/R3∙(R1+R2)/R1R2)

However, three resistances can be determined simply by the formulae below.

R1=Q/(2πf_o G_o C),R2=Q/(2πf_o (2Q^2-G_o ) ),R3=1/(πf_o C)

When the formulae above are combined, G0 can be calculated as below.

G_o=R3/2R1

Also, the relationship between Q and G0 can be induced.

Q>√(G_o/2)

Generally, after selecting proper value for C, calculate systemically the value needed for 3 resistances which are based on the necessary condition for Q, G0 and f0.

State Variable(Universal) Filter

By combining 3 OP-Amps properly, the outputs of secondary low pass and high pass and band pass filters can be obtained at the same time. This filter is as in fig. 9-10 and is called state variable filter, or universal filter. As seen in the circuit, it is basically composed of one difference amplifier (A1) and two same integrators (A2, A3). The center frequency and cutoff frequency for this filter can be as the formula below.

f_o=f_c=1/2πRC

The Q of the filter is determined by the resistance RA and RB.

R_A=(3Q-1)

The band pass gain to low pass output and high pass output is “1”. The gain of center frequency to band pass output is same as the value of Q.

When this circuit has secondary response to low pass output and high pas output, this circuit does not have optimal performance which can get all three outputs at the same time. To one response among low pass butter worth or high pass butter worth response, the Q should be same as 0.707. Eventually, the band pass response does not come out properly. That is, to the response of the secondary 3dB Chevychev filter, Q is 1.3, which is not a proper response. One among secondary butter worth low pass response, high pass response(Q=0.707) or band pass response of high Q should be designed.

Notch Filter

One advantage of the state variable filter in fig. 9-11 is that it can get low pass output and high pass output at the same time. Therefore, notch filter can be made. This filter is very useful to minimize the existence of Hum of 60Hz in the acoustic signal. What is needed is two input adder circuit that have same gains.
