Title Passive Low Pass Filter Design, Simulation and Analysis
Summary Background
Low pass filters (LPFs) are commonly used to allow low frequency desired signal to pass through while blocking high frequency interfering signals. The commercially available LPFs are usually characterized at known source and termination impedances, such as 50 Ohm. These source and termination impedances can be very different from 50 Ohm in real applications. Therefore, the filter attenuation can be significantly deviated from the data sheet.

Project Scope
In this project, the LPF will be designed and simulated based on the ideal situation with termination impedance of 50 Ohm. A comprehensive study of different source and termination impedance values will be carried out to estimate the filter performance under different operating conditions. The student will acquire the skills of LPF design using SPICE simulation tool to evaluate the performance of LPF in frequency-domain. If time permits, the LPF will be constructed for experimental validation.

Pre-requisite and skills, if any
Familiar with LT-SPICE simulation tool.
