From: nukeymusic on 2 Aug 2010 10:50 Is it possible to make a passive rc-bandpass filter which has 0dB attenuation in the passband with only 4 components? nukey

It's not a _resonant_ bandpass filter, by any means, but it has a magnitude response that's zero at f = 0, rises to some maximum, then falls to zero as the frequency approaches infinity. -- Tim Wescott Wescott Design Services http://www.wescottdesign.com Do you need to implement control loops in software?

Review your class notes? There's some passive RC filter with not too many components that actually has a bit of voltage gain. It's usefulness is pretty much limited to winning bets in University bars, but it's out there. I can't even remember if it's bandpass, but if it isn't it may have a bandpass cousin. -- Tim Wescott Wescott Design Services http://www.wescottdesign.com Do you need to implement control loops in software?
