The Signal Path - Tutorial on Passive Filters, Data Transmission and Equalization

Tutorial on Passive Filters, Data Transmission and Equalization

February 13, 2012 Shahriar 10 comments

In this episode Shahriar explores the world of filters! Starting from a simple lumped RC filter, he briefly covers the theory before moving onto measurement techniques. The bandwidth of the filter is verified experimentally in the time domain. A more complex RLC band-stop filter is also demonstrated with a tune-able inductor which is measured using an RLC meter. Using a Rigol spectrum analyzer with built in tracking generator and an active probe, the frequency response of the filter is measured. Several other packaged filters are also demonstrated and a microwave band-pass filter is disassembled to reveal its internal construction.

This guy is a very good teacher. I enjoyed this video very much. It's 1:04:40 long (an hour and forty minutes, plus). I watched the first 20 minutes and will go back and watch the rest later...
