Electronic Filter Design Guide

Filters are electronic circuits used to separate signals of different frequencies. There are several types of filters including high pass, low pass, band pass, and band reject filters. A band pass filter allows signals of frequencies within a certain band to pass through, while attenuating signals outside of that band. An active band pass filter can be created using a combination of an active high pass filter and an active low pass filter. Butterworth filters have maximally flat frequency responses and are commonly used in filter design. The design of a Butterworth second order low pass filter involves selecting component values based on the desired cutoff frequency and gain using design graphs.

Design of Butterworth Second order low pass filter


Given : Cutoff frequency, fC and gain. Wanted : Values of all resistors and capacitors.: Steps : Select the value of C from graph, starting with fC Select value of K parameter from graph. Select values of resistors from graph, using k parameter. Check the design with standard values of resistors and capacitors.

Design Example of Butterworth Second order low pass filter


Given : Cutoff frequency, fC = 1000 Hz and gain. = 6. Wanted : Values of all resistors and capacitors.: Steps : starting with fC = 1kHz, from graph, C=0.01 F. Value of K parameter from graph, K =10. Using K = 10, values of resistors from graph are R1 = 6.2K, R2 = 20.7K, R3 = 32K, R4 = 160K and C1 =2C = 0.02 F.

Standard values, R1 = 6.2K, R2 = 20K, R3 = 33K, R4 = 160K


Calculatedesign parameters, using standard values, fc = 976Hz, gain = 5.9.
