1. DESIGN OF A SECOND ORDER ACTIVE LOW PASS FILTER
AIM: To plot the frequency response of Butterworth LPF (Second order) and find the high cut-
off frequency.
APPARATUS: Bread Board Function Generator CRO Probes Connecting Wires 741 Op-amp,
Resistors, Capacitors
THEORY: Filters are classified as follows: Based on components used in the circuit
• Active filters – Use active elements like transistor or op-amp(provides gain) in addition to
passive elements
• Passive filters – Use only passive elements like resistors, capacitors and inductors, hence
no gain here. Based on frequency range
➢ Low pass filter(LPF) – Allows low frequencies
➢ High pass filter(HPF) – Allows high frequencies
➢ Band pass filter(BPF) – Allows band of frequencies
➢ Band reject filter(BRF) – Rejects band of frequencies
All pass filter – Allows all frequencies but with a phase shift Active Filter is often a frequency –
selective circuit that passes a specified band of frequencies and blocks or attenuates signals of
frequencies outside this band. These Active Filters are most extensively used in the field of
communications and signal processing. They are employed in one form or another in almost all
sophisticated electronic systems such as Radio, Television, Telephone, Radar, Space Satellites,
and Bio-Medical Equipment. Active Filters employ transistors or Op – Amps in addition to that of
resistors and capacitors. Active filters have the following advantages over passive filters. (1)
Flexible gain and frequency adjustment. (2) No loading problem (because of high input
impedance and low output impedance) and (3) Active filters are more economical than passive
filters. A Second – Order Low – Pass Butterworth filter uses RC networks for filtering. Note that
the op-amp is used in the non-inverting configuration; hence it does not load down the RC
network. Resistors R1 and RF determine the gain of the filter.
The gain magnitude equation of the Low – Pass filter can be obtained by converting equation into
its equivalent polar form, as follows.

The operation of the low – pass filter can be verified from the gain magnitude equation.
Thus the Low – Pass filter has a constant gain AF from 0 Hz to the almost high cut-off frequency,
fH, it has the gain 0.707AF at exactly fH, and after fH it decreases at a constant rate with an
increase in frequency. The gain decreases 40 dB (= 20 log 102) each time the frequency is
increased by 10. Hence the rate at which the gain rolls off after fH is 40 dB/decade. The
frequency f = fH is called the cut-off frequency because the gain of the filter at this frequency is
down by 3 dB (=20log 0.707) from 0 Hz. Other equivalent terms for cut-off frequency are -3dB
frequency, break frequency, or corner frequency. DESIGN:
1. Choose a value for the high cut-off frequency, fH(1 KHz)
2. To simplify the design calculations, set R2=R3=R and C2=C3=C. Then choose a value of
C≤1μF(0.0047 μF)
3. Calculate the value of R using the equation
4. Finally, because of the equal resistor (R2=R3) and capacitor (C2=C3) values, the pass band
voltage gain of the second-order low-pass filter has to be equal to 1.586. That
is, Rf = 0.586R1. This gain is necessary to generate Butterworth response. Hence choose a value
of R1≤100KΩ (33 KΩ) and calculate the value of Rf.

2. DESIGN OF A SECOND ORDER ACTIVE HIGH PASS FILTER
AIM: To plot the frequency response of Butterworth HPF (Second order) and find the low cut-off
frequency.
APPARATUS: Bread Board Function Generator CRO Probes Connecting Wires 741 Op-amp,
Resistors, Capacitors
THEORY: Second Order High Pass Filter consists of RC networks for filtering. Second Order
High Pass filter can be constructed from a Second Order Low Pass filter simply by interchanging
frequency determining components R & C . Op-Amp is used in the non – inverting configuration.
Resistor R1 and RF determine the gain of the Filter. The voltage gain magnitude equation of the
second order High-pass filter is
where f = Operating (input) frequency.
This is the frequency at which the magnitude of the gain is 0.707 times its pass band value.
Obviously, all frequencies higher than fL are Pass Band frequencies, with the highest frequency
determined by the closed-loop bandwidth of the OP-Amp. The operation of the high–pass filter
can be verified from the gain magnitude equation.

For example, in the first order High – Pass filter the gain rolls – off or increases at the rate of
20dB/decade in stop band, that is for input signal frequency lesser than Low cut-off frequency (fL
) ; For Second – Order High Pass filter the roll–off rate is 40dB / decade. High Pass filter has
constant gain AF, after the Low cut-off frequency onwards (fL).
DESIGN: Follow the same procedure as given for low-pass filter.
