Introduction:
This laboratory studies the use of passive components to create filters to separate portions of time-dependent waveform. Filters are an essential tool in our complex world of mixed signals — both electronic and otherwise. Passive components (resistors, capacitors, and inductors) have long served as filter components for everything from selecting radio stations to filtering out electrical noise.
OBJECTIVES : (1) Calculate and measure cutoff frequency for series RC and RL filters. (2) Design simple RC low-pass & high pass filter. (3) Design simple RL low-pass & high pass filter. (4) Bode plots for series filters.
LAB DISCUSSIONS:
Frequency Response The frequency response of a circuit is the variation in its behavior with change in signal frequency. Transfer Function The transfer function of a circuit is the frequency dependent ratio of a phasor output y () (an element voltage or current) to a phasor input X () (source voltage or current). Bode Plots Bode plots are semi-log plots of the magnitude (in decibels) and phase (in degrees) of a transfer function versus frequency.
Cutoff Frequency The frequency at which gain becomes 0.707 times of the maximum gain is called cutoff frequency. It is also called the half power frequency because at this frequency the average power delivered by the circuit is one half the maximum average power.
Filter A filter is a circuit that is designed to pass signals with desired frequencies and reject or attenuate others.
Passive Filters Elements used in passive filters are resistors, capacitors and inductors. The gain of passive filters is unity. Low Pass Filter A low pass filter passes low frequencies and rejects high frequencies.

TASK 1: RC Low Pass Filter:
Set up the circuit. Use the function generator FGEN for the supply voltage vin 10 VP-P.
Connect channels 1 and 2 of the oscilloscope to measure V s and V out simultaneously.
Vary the frequency from 500 Hz to 10 kHz in steps , and record the indicated value. With each frequency change, make sure that V in is still 10V pp.
For RC Circuit C=2.2nF R=15kohm Frequency=60-60KHz
For RL Circuit L=1mH R=38Ohms Frequency=60-60KHz
