Abstract
Abstract An active filter for electronic circuits comprising a single frequency bandpass filter including two stages each comprising a differential input high performance operational amplifier with the output of a second stage being connected in feedback relationship to one input of the first stage and the output of the first stage being interconnected with one input of the second stage. The output of the filter circuit is taken from the output of the first stage of the amplifier and the input to the filter circuit is the negative input of the first stage of the amplifier.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
206 words
A bandpass filter circuit having a signal input terminal and a signal output terminal comprising: at least first and second differential input amplifier stages, said signal input terminal being electrically connected to one differential input of said first amplifier stage and said signal output terminal being connected to an output of said first amplifier stage, first capacitive feedback means electrically interconnected between the output of said first amplifier stage and said one differential input of said first amplifier stage, second capacitive feedback means electrically interconnected between the output of said second amplifier stage and one input of the said second amplifier stage and adapted to pass signals thereto, first adjustable resistor means interconnecting the output of said first amplifier stage to ground and second adjustable resistor means interconnecting the output of said second amplifier stage to ground, circuit means connecting the output of said second amplifier stage to a second input of said first amplifier stage through part of said second adjustable resistor means and circuit means electrically connecting said one input of said second amplifier stage to the output of said first amplifier stage via part of said first adjustable resistor means, and means connecting the second input of said second amplifier stage to ground.
