Study Notes

Filter Types and Characteristics

  • Low-pass filters allow low frequencies to pass and attenuate high frequencies.

Low-Pass Filter Characteristics

  • The amplitude-frequency characteristic is flat from 0 to fC (corner frequency).
  • Frequency components above fC are greatly attenuated.

High-Pass Filter Characteristics

  • The amplitude-frequency characteristic is flat from a certain frequency ~ ∞.
  • The primary function of a high-pass filter is to allow frequency components above the corner frequency to pass through without attenuation.

Band-Pass Filter Characteristics

  • The defining characteristic of a band-pass filter is that it allows frequency components within a specific frequency range to pass through.
  • The amplitude-frequency characteristic becomes flat within a specific frequency range.

Band Stop Filter Characteristics

  • The primary function of a band stop filter is to attenuate frequency components within a specific frequency range.
  • The amplitude-frequency characteristic is flat outside of the specific frequency range.

Filter Functions

  • The primary function of a low-pass filter is to allow low-frequency components to pass through and attenuate high-frequency components.
  • The function of a band stop filter is to attenuate frequency components within a specific frequency range.
  • There is no filter type that allows all frequencies to pass through without attenuation.
