Lab of Instrumentation Lab Report 3 High Pass Filter: Submitted To Engr. Ali Raza by Maha Rauf 2014-EE-494

This document summarizes a lab report on designing and testing a high pass filter circuit. The objectives were to calculate and plot the frequency response of an RC high pass filter using an op-amp. Key steps included: [1] Constructing the filter circuit with a resistor, capacitor, function generator and oscilloscope; [2] Gradually increasing the input frequency and measuring the output; [3] Plotting the frequency response and calculating the cut-off frequency; [4] Adding an op-amp to amplify the signal; and [5] Verifying the gain of the amplifier circuit matches theoretical calculations. The results showed the filter passes high frequencies above the cut-off while attenuating lower frequencies, and

Procedure:

 Connected the function generator and oscilloscope as shown in fig.2


 Frequency of 50Hz and 7V input was set.
 Used auto set and measure buttons to observe at oscilloscope
 Gradually increased the frequency and observe the output against it
 Used the recorded values to plot the frequency response
 Calculated the cut off frequency considering the R and C
 Re constructed the circuit by connecting LM741 op amp.
 Calculated the gain of the amplifier circuit.

Cut off frequency:

𝑓𝑐 = = = 268 𝐻𝑧
2𝜋𝑅𝐶 2𝜋(27Ω)(22𝜇𝐹)

Gain of amplifier:
𝑅𝑓 1𝑘Ω
𝐴𝑣 = 1 + 𝑅𝑖 = 1 + 1𝑘Ω = 2

At cut off frequency:


𝑉𝑜 9.8
= = 1.4
𝑉𝑖 7

That is 70.7 % of Av.

Observations:

In this lab it was found that

 Cut off frequency is always below the maximum gain value and is -3dB and the response
curve for first order circuit increases by a factor of 20db/decade
 The closed loop bandwidth of the amplifier determines the highest frequency and above
cut off point all frequencies are considered to be band pass with filter having a constant
gain of AF
 As the frequency increases the gain of the active high pass filter increases from 0 Hz to
20db/decade (cut off point)
 Gain is never greater than unity i-e amplitude of output signal is never greater than input
which makes the passive filter less prior choice.
 The active RC filter is just same as the passive Rc filter plus additional band pass
frequencies that in fact are just amplifying the output which makes them greater than
input or unity gain. So it makes them preferable

CONCLUSION
It is concluded that the passive filters have always output amplitude less then input and so the
gain is always less than unity to compensate this amplifying elements are induced which makes it
an active filter which indeed passive filter plus band pass amplified signals
