Development and Characterization of First Order Wide Bandpass Active Filter (BPAF)

Abstract

Unwanted signals in electrical systems frequently overpower the desired signal. In an attempt to increase the ratio, the desired signals are amplified proportionately to the undesired ones. Frequency selective circuits, often known as filters, can be used to separate desired signals from undesirable ones as signals can be identified by their frequency characteristics. Analog filters are available in both active and passive varieties, each having unique properties. A first order band pass active filter is developed and characterized in this study. The Operational Amplifier (OP AMP 741) is the active element in this case. With the Band Width (BW), Cut-off Frequencies (FL and FH), Center Frequency (FC), and Quality factor (Q) provided, the Transfer Function (TF) equation is generated and defined.
