ACTIVITY: Filter using Op-amps

1. Set up the following circuit and use the values of R and Cs in Figure 1.

Figure 1.

a) Vin(t)=Vm Sin(wt), Vm ≥ 1 V

b) Measure and plot voltage gain as a function of frequency and fill in the following table:

f (Hz) 10 100 1k 10k 100k

Vin (PP)
 Vout (PP)

Av=Vout/Vin

c) Find out the frequency fL that makes Av=0.707.

d) What type of filter is this?

2. Set up the following circuit and use the values of R and Cs in Figure 1.

Figure 2

a) Vin(t)=Vm Sin(wt), Vm ≥ 1 V

b) Measure and plot voltage gain as a function of frequency and fill in the following table:

f (Hz) 10 100 1k 10k 100k

Vin (PP)

Vout (PP)

Av=Vout/Vin

c) Find out the frequency fL that makes Av=0.707.

d) What type of filter is this?

3. Use the circuits in part 1 and two to generate a band-pass filter.

a) Draw your circuit diagram

b) Measure and plot voltage gain as a function of frequency and fill in the following table:

f (Hz) 10 100 1k 10k 100k

Vin (PP)

Vout (PP)

Av=Vout/Vin

c) Find out what is your maximum gain for this band-pass filter. In which frequency or
frequencies will you achieve the maximum gain? Indicate the maximum gain value and
corresponding Vin and Vout.
