(a) Find
the center frequency, fL, f
H, and Bandwidth.
Then,
Q=fcenteral /Bandwidth
(b) Make a Plot!
(Remember Logarithmic s
cale. So, you can see the c
hange of the response by
increasing the frequency
by factor of 10^n.
(c) You will see the clippin
g of the output voltage.!

Gain = sqrt(1/2) = 3dB

DB: 20log10[V1/V0]
(b) What is the maximum ou
tput voltage to avoid clipping
(c) Check

the filter res

ponse and determin
e the slope of the res
ponse above 10 kHz.
