Problem \#1-Transfer Functions for Filter Circuits: For the two circuits given above, determine: a) The transfer function in terms of the given circuit parameters ( R,L,C, etc.). b) Identify any breakpoint frequencies* (?cl?,?c2?…) in terms of the transfer function circuit parameters. *note that breakpoint frequencies are a more general term for cut-point or resonance frequency for higher-order filter circuits. Dimensionless groups that define breakpoint frequencies include: ?c?=1/RC,?c?=L/R,(?c?)2=1/LC c) Write both transfer functions in terms of the breakpoint frequencies you defined in part b.
Problem \#2-Determine Gain and Phase: For the two transfer functions from Problem \#1, determine: a) The Gain in terms of frequency ratios (?/?i?). e) The Phase in terms of frequency ratios (?/?c?). f) Evaluate Limit(Gain) as ??0 and ??? for both circuits. Based on your results, determine the filter types (low-pass, high-pass, band-pass, or band-stop) for circuits A and B.
a) For filter circuit A, you want to design the lower breakpoint frequency to be 3.2 Hz, and the upper breakpoint frequency to be 8 Hz. You have a capacitor with capacitance of 5 milliFarads. Determine the values of: i) the resistor (Ohms) and ii) the inductor (milli-Henrys) b) For filter circuit B, you want to design the breakpoint frequency to be 8 Hz, and the maximum value of gain (at any frequency) to be 5. You have a capacitor with a capacitance of 5 milli-Farads. Determine the values of: i) the input resistor, R/?(Ohms), ii) the feedback resistor, R2?(Ohms) Problem \#4-Graphing the Circuit Performance: For both filter circuits, use Excel, Matlab, Python, etc. to compute and plot the Gain and Phase from a frequency range from 0.1 Hz to 100 Hz. a) Plot the Gain in Decibels of power using a log10? scale for frequency (Hz) for filters A \& B. b) Plot the Phase in Degrees using a log10? scale for frequency (Hz) for filters A \& B.
