op amp circuit

Jun 06, 2005 5 Replies

I require a Single Op-Amp Bandpass Filter circuit with a gain of 100X and the frequency range is 0.1 Hz to 45 Hz.



I found a circuit in the following website:

According to specs, the Q factor must be greater than the square root of half the gain. But as you can see my requirements do not meet with this condition. Hence, please help me out here.



Thanks.



I think you should think in terms of a dual opamp and a 10X high pass filter (2 or 3 poles) followed by a 10X low pass filter (2 or 3 poles).

You might download a free copy of this little filter design aid to play around with variations.

This circuit will do what you want,but requires a big capacitor on the input. If you use a dual opamp like the NE5532 you need the same space but can reduce the cap by a factor of 100 or more. The noise will go up tho.

A frequency range of 450:1 is way too large for a simple bandpass filter. You should have separate low-pass and high-pass stages for this.

Home of DaqGen, the FREEWARE signal generator

that page doesnt give the single op amp sallen key bandpass filter, wich u might look at as an alternative, the one shown is a multiple feedback type.

try this calculator ....
