Introduction to Filters Section 14.1-14.2
Application of Filter Application: Cellphone Center frequency: 900 MHz Bandwidth: 200 KHz Use a filter to remove interference Adjacent interference
Filters • Classification • Low-Pass • High-Pass • Band-Pass • Band-Reject • Implementation • Passive Implementation (R,L, C) • Active Implementation (Op-Amp, R, L, C) • Continuous time and discrete time
Filter Characteristics Not desirable. Alter Frequency content. Must not alter the desired signal! Affect selectivity Sharp Transition in order to attenuate the interference
Low-Pass Example How much attenuation is provided by the filter?
Answer How much attenuation is provided by the filter? 40 dB
High-Pass Filter What filter stopband attenuation is necessary in order to ensure the signal level is 20 dB above the interference?
High-Pass Filter (Solution) What filter stopband attenuation is necessary in order to ensure the signal level is 20 dB above the interference? 60 dB @60 Hz
Replace a resistor with a capacitor! How do you replace a resistor with a switch and a capacitor?
Resistance of a Switched Capacitor Circuit (315A, Murmann, Stanford)
Filter Transfer Function (Increase filter order in order to increase filter selectivity!)
RC Low Pass (Review) A pole: a root of the denomintor 1+sRC=0→S=-RC
Laplace Transform/Fourier Transform (Laplace Transform) Complex s plane (Fourier Transform) -p p=1/(RC) Location of the zero in the left complex plane
Rules of thumb: (applicable to a pole) • Magnitude: • 20 dB drop after the cut-off frequency • 3dB drop at the cut-off frequency • Phase: • -45 deg at the cut-off frequency • 0 degree at one decade prior to the cut-frequency • 90 degrees one decade after the cut-off frequency
RC High Pass Filter (Review) A zero at DC. A pole from the denominator. 1+sRC=0→S=-RC
Laplace Transform/Fourier Transform (Laplace Transform) Complex s plane (Fourier Transform) -p p=1/(RC) Zero at DC. Location of the zero in the left complex plane
Zero at the origin. Thus phase(f=0)=90 degrees. The high pass filter has a cut-off frequency of 100.
RC High Pass Filter (Review) R12=(R1R2)/(R1+R2) A pole and a zero in the left complex plane.
Laplace Transform/Fourier Transform (Low Frequency) (Laplace Transform) Complex s plane (Fourier Transform) -p z=1/(RC) p=1/(R12C) -z Location of the zero in the left complex plane
Laplace Transform/Fourier Transform (High Frequency) (Laplace Transform) Complex s plane (Fourier Transform) -p z=1/(RC) p=1/(R12C) -z Location of the zero in the left complex plane
Stability Question Why the poles must lie in the left half plane?
Answer Recall that the impulse response of a system contains terms such as . If , these terms grow indefinitely with time while oscillating at a frequency of
