HIGH PASS FILTER
In a similar approach, one can derive the transfer function of
a high pass filter. A typical first order high pass filter is shown
below:

Writing the KCL for this circuit :

)

(13)
Solving these two equations to find the transfer function and
using:
(high frequency gain)
and
Which results:
(14)
Looking at the transfer function, it is clear that when f/f
O
is
small, the capacitor is open and hence no signal is getting in
to the amplifier. As the frequency increases the amplifier
starts operating. At f = f
O
the capacitor behaves like a short
circuit and the amplifier will have a constant, high frequency,
gain of H
O
. Figure 6 shows the transfer function of this high
pass filter:

BAND PASS FILTER

FIGURE 7. Bandpass Filter
Combining a low pass filter and a high pass filter will generate
a band pass filter. In this network the input impedance forms
the high pass filter while the feedback impedance forms the
low pass filter. Choosing the corner frequencies so that f
1
<
f
2
, then all the frequencies in between, f
1
≤
f
≤
f
2
, will pass
through the filter while frequencies below f
1
and above f
2
will
be cut off.
The transfer function can be easily calculated using the same
methodology as before.
