Figure 1610 demonstrated that the higher the corner frequency of a partial filter, the high-
er its Q. Therefore, to avoid the saturation of the individual stages, the filters need to be
placed in the order of rising Q values. The Q values for each filter order are listed (in rising
order) in Section 169, Tables 164 through 1610.
Figures 1612 and 1613 show a first-order low-pass filter in the inverting and in the non-
inverting configuration.
