Example
@ High frequencies, Zi ≈ 500 Ω
@ Low frequencies, Zi ≈ 30 kΩ
so
Rd = 30 kΩ - Rs = 30 kΩ - 500 Ω = 29.5 kΩ
fc = 1/(2πCdRd) Cd = 1/(2πfcRd)

25
An electronic filter is a circuit that can be designed to
modify, reshape or reject all unwanted frequencies of an
electrical signal and accept/pass only those signals
wanted by the circuits designer.
