Design of an RLC Band Reject Filter<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

(a) Circuit Diagram & Component Values<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The standard form of a parallel RLC band reject (notch) filter is shown in the referenced figure. The circuit consists of a resistor RR, inductor LL, and capacitor CC connected in parallel, with the output voltage taken across this parallel combination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given data:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Center angular frequency<\/strong>: \u03c90=25 krad\/s=25,000 rad\/s\\omega_0 = 25 \\text{ krad\/s} = 25,000 \\text{ rad\/s}<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Capacitance<\/strong>: C=200 nF=200\u00d710\u22129 FC = 200 \\text{ nF} = 200 \\times 10^{-9} \\text{ F}<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Quality Factor<\/strong>: Q=2.5Q = 2.5<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
    Step 1: Compute the Inductor LL<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

    The resonance frequency formula for an RLC circuit is: \u03c90=1LC\\omega_0 = \\frac{1}{\\sqrt{LC}}<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Solving for LL: L=1\u03c902CL = \\frac{1}{\\omega_0^2 C} L=1(25,000)2\u00d7200\u00d710\u22129L = \\frac{1}{(25,000)^2 \\times 200 \\times 10^{-9}} L=1625\u00d7106\u00d7200\u00d710\u22129L = \\frac{1}{625 \\times 10^6 \\times 200 \\times 10^{-9}} L=1125L = \\frac{1}{125} L=8 mHL = 8 \\text{ mH}<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Step 2: Compute the Resistance RR<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

    The quality factor QQ for a parallel RLC circuit is given by: Q=R\u03c90LQ = \\frac{R}{\\omega_0 L}<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Solving for RR: R=Q\u00d7\u03c90LR = Q \\times \\omega_0 L R=2.5\u00d7(25,000)\u00d7(8\u00d710\u22123)R = 2.5 \\times (25,000) \\times (8 \\times 10^{-3}) R=2.5\u00d7200R = 2.5 \\times 200 R=500 \u03a9R = 500 \\ \\Omega<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    So, the values of the components are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • R = 500 \u03a9<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • L = 8 mH<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • C = 200 nF<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      The circuit consists of these components in parallel, with the output voltage measured across them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n\n\n\n

      (b) Bandwidth & Cutoff Frequencies Calculation<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      The bandwidth BWBW is given by: BW=\u03c90QBW = \\frac{\\omega_0}{Q} BW=25,0002.5BW = \\frac{25,000}{2.5} BW=10,000 rad\/sBW = 10,000 \\text{ rad\/s}<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The cutoff frequencies are: \u03c91=\u03c90\u2212BW2\\omega_1 = \\omega_0 – \\frac{BW}{2} \u03c91=25,000\u221210,0002\\omega_1 = 25,000 – \\frac{10,000}{2} \u03c91=25,000\u22125,000\\omega_1 = 25,000 – 5,000 \u03c91=20,000 rad\/s\\omega_1 = 20,000 \\text{ rad\/s} \u03c92=\u03c90+BW2\\omega_2 = \\omega_0 + \\frac{BW}{2} \u03c92=25,000+5,000\\omega_2 = 25,000 + 5,000 \u03c92=30,000 rad\/s\\omega_2 = 30,000 \\text{ rad\/s}<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Final answers:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Bandwidth<\/strong>: 10,000 rad\/s<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Cutoff frequencies<\/strong>: \u03c91=20,000\\omega_1 = 20,000 rad\/s, \u03c92=30,000\\omega_2 = 30,000 rad\/s<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Explanation (300 Words)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        A band reject filter<\/strong> (also called a notch filter<\/strong>) is designed to block a narrow frequency range while allowing signals outside this range to pass. This circuit is commonly used to suppress unwanted noise or interference, such as removing a specific frequency in audio processing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        For this design, we use a parallel RLC circuit<\/strong>, where the inductor (LL), capacitor (CC), and resistor (RR) form a resonant network. At the resonant frequency, the impedance is maximized, causing attenuation of the signal at that frequency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        The given center frequency<\/strong> is 25 krad\/s, and the quality factor (Q)<\/strong> is 2.5, which determines the sharpness of the rejection band. The capacitance is provided as 200 nF<\/strong>, so we compute the required inductor (L = 8 mH)<\/strong> and resistor (R = 500 \u03a9)<\/strong> to achieve the desired response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        The bandwidth (BW)<\/strong> is found using the relation BW=\u03c90QBW = \\frac{\\omega_0}{Q}, giving 10,000 rad\/s. The cutoff frequencies<\/strong>, marking the points where attenuation begins, are found as 20,000 rad\/s<\/strong> and 30,000 rad\/s<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        This design ensures that signals around 25 krad\/s<\/strong> are strongly attenuated while those outside the 20\u201330 krad\/s range pass through. Applications include eliminating power line noise (e.g., 60 Hz hum) in audio systems or suppressing interference in communication systems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
