Learn how to calculate its transfer function G(jw) Learn the filter constant time () definition Learn how to calculate the RC low-pass filter output for any sinusoidal input. Learn how to realize an RC low pass filter with a C.A.D. tool Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G. Marconi” - Forlì RC low pass filter schematic The first order passive RC low pass filter is made of only two components: R VI(jw) stimulus or input sinusoidal voltage C VO(jw) output sinusoidal voltage VI and VO can be represented by the corresponding vector quantities: VI=VIej I, VO= VOej O Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G. Marconi” - Forlì Transfer function calculation (1/2) The RC low pass filter can be easily seen as a simple impedance divider with Z1=R and Z2=1/jwC Z1=R VI(jw) Z2=1/jwC VO(jw) The impedance divider formula provides: VO/VI=Z2/(Z1+Z2). VO/VI is the transfer function G(jw) of the RC filter. Hence it is: G(jw)=Z2/(Z1+Z2) Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G. Marconi” - Forlì Transfer function calculation (2/2) Let’s substitute Z1=R and Z2=1/jwC in G(jw) expression 1 1 1 1 jwC G ( jw ) 1 jwC 1 jwRC 1 R R jwC jwC R.C= [s] is defined as the time constant of the low-pass filter. Hence: 1 1 G ( jw ) 1 jw 1 j 2 f Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G.

Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G. Marconi” - Forlì LTspiceIV CAD tool Download free from: http://www.linear.com/designtools/software CAD tools: schematic implementation and real time simulation needed to decrease electronic circuit time to market. English language prerequisite for most CAD tools. Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G. Marconi” - Forlì Lesson 2: RC low pass filter frequency response graphical representation (2h) Lesson 2 Targets: Learn the graphical method to calculate any filter output. Learn the low-pass filter cutoff frequency (fC) definition, its bandwidth (Bw) and the relationship between fC and . Learn how to read and draw first-order low pass filters amplitude diagrams in logarithmic scale. Learn how to design an RC low-pass filter for a given bandwidth and/or fC. Learn how to draw the amplitude and phase diagrams of first-order RC low-pass filters with MS-excel. Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G. Marconi” - Forlì The graphical approach to the calculation of filter output Lesson 1 result: the filter output voltage can be derived by the knowledge of the input voltage and the analitycal calculation of the filter transfer function G(jw) – both amplitude and phase. Disadvantages of the analitycal approach: - two calculations (amplitude and phase) for each input frequency. - G(jw) analitycal expression depends on filter topology. New graphical approach: two plots, namely |G(jw)| vs. f and G(jw) vs. f are associated to each filter. The calculation of the output voltage does not need G(jw) value calculation because the values of amplitude and phase of G(jw) at the given frequency can be simply read from the two given plots of the filter. Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G. Marconi” - Forlì Amplitude and Phase diagrams G(jw) vs. f is the filter phase diagram* Amplitude diagram 1 0,9 0,8 0,7 0,6 0,5 0,4 0,3 0,2 0,1 0 Phase diagram 0 -15 -30 .

VI is easily calculated, since |G(jw)| is the value read from the plot in step 2). Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G. Marconi” - Forlì Output amplitude calculation with graphical method (2/2) Case 1): VI=1,5V I=00 f=100Hz From the filter amplitude diagram at f=100Hz we read |G(jw)| =0,8. Hence the output voltage amplitude at f=100Hz is VO=0,8*1,5V=1,2V Case 2): VI=1,5V I=00 f=1KHz From the filter amplitude diagram at f=1KHz we read |G(jw)| =0,18. Hence the output voltage amplitude at f=1KHz is VO=0,18*1,5V=0,27V Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G.

Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G. Marconi” - Forlì Output phase calculation with graphical method (2/2) Case 1): VI=1,5V I=00 f=100Hz From the filter phase diagram at f=100Hz we read G(jw)=-350. Hence the output voltage phase at f=100Hz is O=-350+0=350 Case 2): VI=1,5V I=00 f=1KHz From the filter phase diagram at f=1KHz we read G(jw)=-810. Hence the output voltage phase at f=1KHz is O=-810+0=-810 Graphical method advantages: - no need to calculate amplitude and phase: they are simply read from the plots. - it is a general approach valid for all kind of filters: it is only needed the knowledge of the amplitude and phase plots. Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G.

On the contrary, all input signals with f> fC are “cut”, i.e. the filter output has an amplitude significantly lower than the input. 2) The filter band B is defined as the range of input frequencies for which the filter attenuation is 0,7. In practice B=[0, fC]. The bandwidth is the width of B=fC-0=fC 3) The relationship between fC and is: 1 1 f C 2 2 R C Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G.

The filter introduces a maximum phase shift (a delay) of –900. All input signals with frequencies within the filter pass band [0, fC] are delayed less than 45/(360*f)=0,125/f. Input signals with frequencies outside the filter pass band are delayed more than 0,125*f, with a maximum delay of 0,25/f corresponding to the maximum phase shift of –900.

The same considerations hold for the phase plot. 1000000 900000 800000 700000 600000 500000 400000 300000 200000 100000 0,1 1000000 100000 10000 1000 100 10 1 0,1 frequency Amplitude diagram 1 0,9 0,8 0,7 0,6 0,5 0,4 0,3 0,2 0,1 0 Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G.

Marconi” - Forlì Pros and cons of simulation Simulation advantages: Fast time to market: you do not need to wait physical implementation of the circuit to know its behavior No hand calculations no human error, no interconnection errors Simulation drawbacks: If components models are not accurate the circuit can exhibit unexpected behavior Parasitic components are not included and are circuit layout dependent difficult to predict. That’s what differentiates the good from the bad designer. The Pros are exceedingly better than the Cons: that’s why simulation is ALWAYS used to prototype new designs. Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G. Marconi” - Forlì Lesson 4: An introduction to active filters and simulation examples (2h) Lesson 4 Targets: Learn the main differences between RC passive and active filters. Learn the schematics of low-pass and high-pass RC active filters. Learn the amplitude and phase diagrams of active filters.

Marconi” - Forlì Limits of passive filters The main limits of passive filters are: 1) the frequency response of the filter is dependent on the RL load. In particular, the maximum amplitude of the filter when connected to a load is <1 and load dependent. fC value is load dependent too. 2) the maximum amplitude of a passive filter is =1 (no signal gain) even when not connected to any RL load. Active filters are able to provide both a frequency response independent of any RL load and a signal gain >1. They are obtained adding an active component such as an OP.AMP. (OPerational AMPlifier) to a passive filter. Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G.

The phone signal doesn’t disturb the ADSL signal because of the high-pass filter embedded in the ADSL module. The ADSL signal doesn’t disturb the phone signal because of the low-pass filter inserted just before the phone receiver. Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G.

A cross-over filter is placed before each speaker so that the speaker can be reached only by the frequency components of the input audio signal it is able to reproduce. Cross-over filters are typically 2nd or 3rd order low-pass or high-pass filters. Istituto Tecnico Industriale Statale “G. Marconi” - Forlì Higher order filters. In practical applications 2nd or higher order filters are typically used because of their higher selectivity: |G(jw)| [dB] 0dB Note: the order of a filter is equal to the number of reactive -20dB components in its schematic (i.e. the -40dB number of poles of its -60dB transfer function). fC 10fC 100fC 1000fC 1st f (log) order: -20dB/dec 2nd order: -40dB/dec 3rd order: -60dB/dec Low-pass filter attenuation at f=10*fC is: 1st order 0.1 2nd order 0.01 3rd order 0.001 The higher the order of the filter the better its ability to select only the frequencies within its pass band B.
