Design an active filter 2nd order

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on designing a second-order active filter with specific requirements, including no ripple in the output and a non-linear phase shift being permissible. The filter must allow frequencies from 0 to 5 KHz to pass with a gain of 4 dB, while attenuating other frequencies significantly. A capacitor of 0.01uF is specified due to its availability, and minimizing offset error is emphasized. Participants suggest starting with filter polynomial types, considering attenuation needs, and sketching out the filter design. The design process involves calculations for resistor values based on the desired gain and frequency characteristics.

• No ripple can exist in the output, but non-linear phase shift is allowed.
• The frequency response must be as close as possible to the ideal filter response.
• Signals of frequency 0 ~ 5 KHz are only allowed to pass through the filter with a desired gain of 4dB . Other frequencies should reduce at least 100 times of gain for every 10 times of frequency increase.
• Capacitor of 0.01uF must use in the active filter design due to its high availability in the stock.
• Minimize offset error of your design


how to determine it and i don't know how to start it ?

Start by listing the various choices for filter polynomial type. What are the characteristics of each? Which one(s) have ripple in the passband? Which one(s) don't?

Then look at the attenuation you need to have ("100 times for every 10 times frequency increase") -- what order filter are we talking about now? Is it a LPF, BPF or HPF?

Given all that information, start to sketch out ways to do the active filter... Show us your work.
 
Do you have access to a filter design handbook?
 
no ripple means butterworth, 4 db means this is HPF

fc=1/2pie RC=7957OHM
Apb =4
20logApb=4
Apb-1.585

Rf=Rapb=7957 x 1.585 =12.6kohm

Apb=1+Rf/Rs
1.585=1/(12.6k/Rs)
Rs=21.54kohm


i just know this few steps .if there any mistake
