In the circuit of figure 14, for fc = 3.4kHz and R
i
=
R1 = R2 = R3 = 10kΩ, we obtain:
The attenuation of the filter is 30dB at 6.8kHz and
better than 60dB at 15kHz.
The same method, referring to table 2 and figure
15 is used to design high-pass filter. In this case
the damping factor is found by taking the recipro-
cal of the numbers in table 2. For fc = 5kHz and Ci
= C1 = C2 = C3 = 1nF we obtain:
