Notch filter
 A special band stop filter used to reject a single frequency
 Normally used to suppress the A.C power line noise
 Quality factor = fo/f

Peak filter
 A special band pass filter used to enhance a single frequency
 Quality factor = fo/f
 Ab is normally -3 db

Comb Filter
 ‘DFD IIR Comb design.vi’ can be used to design notch/peak comb
filter
 ‘Filter type’ specifies the type of notch or peak comb filter
 Df represents f

Task
1. Design and implement a notch filter to remove the 200Hz tone
from ‘Notch_Noise(200Hz)’
2. Assign a DIP switch on the DSP kit which when turned ON
implements the filtering
3. Design a comb filter to remove the noise from
‘Comb_Noise(100Hz).wav’. Show the magnitude response of the
filter and spectrum of the audio signal
