This article presents, in a simplified manner, a design method for active filters intended for those who are not filter specialists. By following the described five-step approach, a circuit designer who has some knowledge of passive filters will (without having to learn a whole new technology) be able to design active filters just as easily as he now handles conventional passive filters. Starting with the filter specification, it is shown sequentially how to realize a network that meets the prescribed requirements. Configurations and element values are given for the low-pass (LP), bandpass (BP), high-pass (HP), all-pass (AP), and band-elimination (BE), second-order active filter building blocks.
