In this paper a comparison of a sixth-order active
band pass R-filter output response with the output response of a
sixth-order band pass RC-filter at different quality factors (Q = 2, 5,
7, 8 and 10) was carried out at a fixed frequency of 10 KHz. The
architecture used in the design is the multiple feedbacks for both
filter networks. The simulated response characteristics show that both
filters (R- and RC-filters) have their mid-band gains increasing with Q,
while their bandwidths monotonically decreased with Q-values. The
bandwidths are in the range of 22.23 dB to 62.97 dB and –55.49 dB to –50.81
dB (Q = 2 to 10) for R- and RC-filters respectively. At higher
Q-values, R-filter showed better selectivity with a smaller bandwidth
(400 Hz) at the edge of the pass band, when compared to 450 Hz for the
RC-filter. The roll-off rate around –58.9
dB/decade for the R-filter appears to be that of a third-order filter
response, while the RC-filter has its response in the range –106 to –132
dB/decade which is in the neighbourhood of an ideal sixth-order
response (roll-off of 120 db/decade). A shift in the center frequency
with Q was observed for the RC-filter only.
