A comprehensive tutorial on active filter design analysis and design procedures. This book covers: Basic systems classifications together with filter transmission and approximations; Operational amplifiers, including bipolar and MOS integrators; Definitions of sensitivity and statistical sensitivity measures; Continuous-time second-order active sections; Higher-order filter design; Switched capacitor filters.
Originally published in 1981, Modern Filter Design remains a classic statement of the principles underlying the analysis and design of active RC and switched capacitor filters. Among other topics, the authors discuss the design of continuous-time, second order active sections (biquads), various measures of sensitivity, and the basic properties and classification of continuous-time and sampled data systems, together with filter transfer functions and approximations.
