Band-Pass FilterA bandpass filter attenuates lower and higher frequencies while medium frequencies are passed through. With a narrow pass band, a resonant peak may occur, depending on the circuit's Q, which is the ratio of the center frequency to the bandwidth of the filter. Circuit Q and the damping coefficient are related by the equation Q = 1 / (2 d). In ratio receivers, resonant LC circuits are used to select a single radio station from a bulk of others at the antenna output. In the past. circuit Q, and therefore, selectivity, could be adjusted by applying positive feedback. In present times, high Q bandpass filters are built with operational amplifiers having multiple feedback networks. This applies especially to low frequency circuits, where bulky inductors and capacitors would be an impending and costly factor.
