A plot of the magnitude |Zeq|

Plot |VO| by substituting 10 |VO|
different values of f from
0 to 1 kHz with = 2f.

We note that:
1. At low frequencies,
the capacitor is open
0 250 500 750 1000
so VO = 0. Frequency (Hz)
2. At high frequencies, the inductor acts as an
open circuit so again, VO = 0.

This is an example of a frequency-dependent


network and we have shown that its performance
is caused by the reactive elements in the circuit.

The Semilog Plot
In the previous example, much of the variation
in the low frequencies is difficult to see. A
standard technique to get a more meaningful
graph is to plot the frequency on a log axis,
expanding the low-frequency portions.

Electric Filters
Networks consisting of inductors and/or capacitors
that are used to pass signals at certain frequencies
and block signals at other frequencies are called
electric filters.
There are several types of filters:
(1) A low-pass filter will block a sinusoid whose
frequency is higher than a cutoff value.
(2) A high-pass filter will block a sinusoid whose
frequency is lower than a cutoff value.
(3) A band-pass (band-reject / notch) filter will
pass (block) any sinusoid whose frequency
falls within a specified range.

Active Filters
Thr filters we have discussed so far used inductors
and/or capacitors only and are called passive
filters. A drawback of passive filters is that it
cannot generate a voltage gain greater than one.
Also, inductors are generally bulky and are not
readily available in precise values.

Filters utilizing operational amplifiers are called


active filters. They are more commonly used in
practice as they can amplify the signal (GV() > 1)
and only use resistors and capacitors to generate
the primary filter types.

the constant source is also valid for the sinusoidal

Example: In an undergraduate laboratory class,
you were asked to implement a high-pass filter with
a cut-off frequency at 4.8 kHz and a maximum gain
of 20. When you went to get the components, you
learned that there are only three capacitor values
available: 33 mF, 33 F and 33 nF. Determine the
capacitor and resistor values to use.

The cut-off frequency in rad/sec is


C = 2fC = 2(4.8x103) = 30.16x103 rad/sec
Determine the corresponding resistor value
required by substituting the available capacitors:
1 or 1
c = R1 =

At C = 33 mF: R1 = 1
30.16(10 )33(10-3 )

At C = 33 F: R1 = 1
At C = 33 nF: R1 = 1 k
Going through the components, we find that only
the 1k resistor is available. Choose C = 33 nF
and R1= 1 k. Finally, get R2 value:

R2 = R1x(required gain) = 20 k
