  1. Frequency selective networks There are man frequency selective networks, the most common two networks are the series and parallel resonant circuits 1

  2. Series resonant circuit • In this kind of circuits, at the resonant frequency the inductor and capacitors has equal impedances with opposite signs • At the resonant frequency vO will be in phase with vi • The quality factor for this circuit is given by 2

  3. Series resonant circuit • The quality factor gives an indication of the bandwidth of the circuit • Narrower bandwidth means that the circuit has a larger quality factor as shown in the Figure 3-dB f2 3 f1

  4. Series resonant circuit • The quality factor is defined according to the following equation • The bandwidth is defined as the difference between f1 and f2 • At these two particular frequencies the signal amplitude is less by 3 dB as indicated by the figure in slide 3 4

  5. Series resonant circuit example Example: Design a filter to couple a voltage source, with negligible source impedance, to a 50 ohm load resistance. The specifications are that the filter center frequency be 5 MHz and the bandwidth be 100 kHz Solution From the quality factor we find that 5

  6. Series resonant circuit example Solution The capacitance value can be found from 6

  7. Series resonant circuit • The circuit gain at any frequency can be determined from • The attenuation at any harmonic can be found from 7

  8. Series resonant circuit example Example: A series tuned circuit is to be used to filter out harmonics of a waveform. What must be the minimum Q for the amplitude of the fifth harmonic to be 40 dB below the amplitude of the fundamental frequency Solution 40 dB corresponds to a voltage ratio of 100:1, n=5 This means that Q=20.83 8

  9. Parallel resonant circuit • In parallel resonant circuit two susceptances are added in parallel, so that the admittance, instead of impedance is a minimum at fO 9

  10. Parallel resonant circuit • In practical life the inductor usually has a finite resistance, therefore a more accurate model for the parallel resonant circuit is shown below 10

  11. Impedance matching and harmonic filtering using reactive networks • Reactive networks can be used to match impedances over a narrow frequency range • These networks can also be used to filter out some harmonics 11

  12. Impedance matching • The input impedance of the two networks shown in the next slide are equal provided • If we take the real and imaginary parts and equate them we get the following 12

  13. Impedance matching • The previous equations can be rewritten as 13

  14. Impedance matching 14

  15. Impedance matching and harmonic filtering using reactive networks Example: The input impedance of a transistor amplifier is equal to 10 Ω in series with 0.2 μH. Design a matching network so that the input impedance is 50 Ω at 20 MHz Solution: At 20 MHz the inductive reactance of a 0.2 μH inductor is 25.1 Ω. The combined impedance of the circuit became 10+j25.1 Ω. To do the impedance transformation we can use the equation 15

  16. Impedance matching and harmonic filtering using reactive networks Solution: Or in order to convert the real part of the impedance to 50 Ω, the imaginary part became Xs=20 Ω. In order to convert the 25.1 Ω to 20 Ω a series reactance of -j5.1Ω must be added to the circuit. 17

  17. Impedance matching and harmonic filtering using reactive networks Solution: Now Xp can be found from if a reactance of –j25 is added in parallel with the circuit as shown in the figure of the next slide then input impedance became exactly 50 Ω The –j25 reactance results from the impedance of a capacitor 318 pF 18

  19. Impedance matching and harmonic filtering using reactive networks Example: Design a lossless matching network to couple the impedance shown in the fig. below to a 50 Ω source impedance at 20 MHz 20

  20. Impedance matching and harmonic filtering using reactive networks solution: Since the series to parallel transformation always results in a parallel resistance larger than 50 Ω, there is no series reactance that will directly transform the 100 Ω resistor to a parallel equivalent of 50 Ω The matching circuit can be solved based on the following equation 21

  21. Impedance matching and harmonic filtering using reactive networks Solution: The input impedance of the circuit is This can be brought to 50 Ω only by adding a –j50Ω reactance in series with the above mentioned circuit. The completed solution will similar to the one shown in the next circuit 22
