Step 6: Review the resistor and capacitor values.
It is desirable to keep the capacitor values suffi-
ciently large to minimize the effects of stray capac-
itance. It may be necessary to adjust the capacitor
values chosen in Step 4 to achieve this require-
ment. Also verify that R1 is larger than the mini-
mum required input impedance.

Step 7: The resistor values calculated in Step 5
are generally not standard values. Select standard
values which are nearest the calculated values.
This should not create a large change in the filter
characteristics since metal film resistors are avail-
able in approximately 2.5% increments which al-
lows for component selection near the calculated
values. However, it is advisable to calculate the ac-
tual filter parameters, using the selected values,
using the equations in Step 5.

Step 8: The conversion from the singled-ended cir-
cuit to the differential circuit requires duplicating
the values of R

Step 1: The required pass band gain, H

o

, is -1 for

this example.

Step 2: Minimum input impedance is 10 k

Ω.

Step 3: Select a Butterworth response with a cor-
ner frequency of 50kHz. (A two-pole Butterworth

with a corner frequency of 50 kHz attenuates the
signal at 20 kHz by approximately 0.1 dB and has
nearly ideal phase linearity within the audio band.)

Step 6: Review the filter component values and fil-

negate stray capacitance effects.

nearest the calculated values.
