Damping signal is inverted with fourth opamp to make gain and damping as well as frequency independently adjustable. Damping is in range of 0-2, with critical value of 1.414 giving flattest response. For high pass, take output from first opamp; for bandpass, take output from second opamp. Value of input resistor is 10K (10,000 ohms) when gain K is 1.-D.

Full rotation of ganged tuning control R4 tunes circuit from 100 Hz to 10 kHz, with position of switch S1 determining whether circuit passes or rejects frequency to which it is tuned. Maximum selectivity, conesponding to maximum height of pass curve or depth of reject curve and minimum width of either curve, is obtained when R9 is set for maximum gain in FET Q4. If R9 is advanced far enough with switch set to pass, circuit will oscllate and give sine-wave output at tuned frequency.-R.P.Tumer, FET Circuits, Howard W, Sams, Indianapolis, IN, 1977, 2nd Ed., p 71-73.

Circuit using optical Electronics 9803 opamps separates AF input signal into two outputs. Low-pass output contains DC to 10 Hz, and high-pass output has frequency content above 10 Hz to upper frequency limit approaching 10 MHz for opamp used. Dynamic output impedance of both outputs is less than 1 ohm. Both outputs have DC continuity. DC output of high-pass terminal is equal to offset voltage of integrator. DC output of low-pass terminal equals DC input plus offset voltages of both opamps.- Automatic DC Level Shifter, Optical Electronics, Tucson, AZ, Application Tip 10226. (View)
