f0= 1/2π√LC.
R0 = pQ.
where p is the characteristic resistance, equal to the reactance of the coil and
capacitor. It is more convenient to calculate it by the formula
p = √L / C.
Since the capacitor usually introduces almost no losses, the quality factor of
the circuit is equal to the quality factor of the coil. It is easier to determine the
resonant frequency and quality factor experimentally by assembling the
cascade according to the above scheme. You will need a signal generator that
creates an input voltage Uin, and some kind of output meter with high internal
resistance, best of all an oscilloscope. It will serve to register the voltage Uout.
Uout = Uin/(R1+r0).
Having measured the voltages at the input and output, it is now easy to
calculate the resonant impedance, and then the quality factor of the circuit.
Another way to measure the quality factor is to measure the loop bandwidth
2Δf, where Δf is the oscillator frequency deviation at which Uout falls to 0,7 of
the resonant value. The quality factor is related to the bandwidth by a simple
formula
Q = f0/2Δf.
In this case, it must be borne in mind that it is not the intrinsic (constructive)
quality factor of the circuit Q0 that will be measured, but a slightly smaller
value - the quality factor of the circuit shunted by the resistor R1. Therefore,
the resistance of the resistor in this experiment should be chosen as large as
possible. Often the resistor is replaced with a small capacitor, in practice it is
enough to bring the generator probe to the upper (according to the diagram)
output of the circuit.
R1 = R0(n1/n0)2,
where n1 is the number of turns from the "ground" to the tap: n0 is the total
number of turns of the coil (the connection of the parts of the coil is assumed
to be strong) In the second case
R1 = R0C12/(C1 +C2)2.
If R2 is not infinite, then first you need to take it into account by calculating the
new R0 (reduced by parallel connection of R2), and then calculate the input
matching. The parameters of a narrow bandpass filter can be significantly
improved, including two, three or more circuits. The connection between them
can be inductive or external capacitive. The mutual inductance coefficient is
chosen to be Q times less than the inductance of the coils, and the
capacitance of the coupling capacitors is Q times less than the loop
capacitances, and Q is determined from the required bandwidth of the filter. If
O is much less than the constructive quality factor of the coils, the losses in
the filter are small. The input and output of the filter are loaded with resistors
R = pQ.
The signal to the circuit can be applied not only in parallel, as described
above, but also in series, as in Fig. 41. In this case, if it is necessary to obtain
a sharp resonance curve, the resistance R2, as before, must be chosen as
much as possible, and R1, on the contrary, as little as possible. With a small
internal resistance of the generator, such a circuit has a large voltage transfer
coefficient at the resonant frequency, equal to Q in the limit. At the lowest
frequencies, the transfer coefficient tends not to zero, as in the filters already
considered, but to one.
A very interesting case is when in the filter according to the scheme of Fig. 41,
select the resistances at the input and output equal to the characteristic, i.e.
R1 \u2d RXNUMX \uXNUMXd p.
In the filter passband 0 ... f0, the transfer coefficient is often assumed to be
equal to one, considering the input voltage not the generator EMF, but the
voltage between the upper output of the resistor R1 according to the circuit
and the common wire. Moreover, the resistor R1 can be the internal
resistance of the generator. The generator, as it were, "sees" the load
resistance R2 through a filter transparent in the passband and gives maximum
power at R1 = R2.
It is also possible to further "build up" the order of the filters. For example, in
Fig. 44 shows how a two-link low-pass filter of the fifth order is made up of two
U-shaped links.
The HPF is constructed in a similar way, only the coils are replaced by
capacitors, and the capacitors are replaced by coils. Broadband bandpass
filters are obtained by cascading a low-pass filter and a high-pass filter,
preferably with an isolating amplifier stage between them.
Question for self-test. Using the formulas in this chapter, derive the
calculation formulas for the inductance and capacitance of the L-shaped link
of the low-pass filter. Calculate the LPF according to fig. 44 for a radio
amateur heterodyne receiver. The filter cutoff frequency is 2,7 kHz and the
characteristic impedance is 1,6 kΩ.
Draw a filter circuit with the designation of the element ratings and plot its
frequency response on a logarithmic scale.
In the practical manufacture of the filter, the number of turns of the coil is
calculated using the information presented in Chapter 5. In this case, it is
advisable to use ferrite rings, which provide a good quality factor of the coil
and are little susceptible to interference from extraneous fields. Somewhat
worse in both respects are magnetic circuits made of W-shaped steel plates,
for example, from transformers previously used in portable transistor
receivers.
For example, let's calculate the number of coil turns on a K16x8x4 ferrite ring
made of 2000NM grade ferrite. Let's use the formula L=μμ0N2/l. Substituting
into it the values μ = 2000, μ0 = 4π-10-7rH/M,S=16 10-6M2, l=38 10-3M, we get
L -10-6N2 or N - 103L Substituting the value L = 0,19 H, we get N = 430 turns.
It should be noted that, contrary to popular belief, such simple filters are rather
uncritical to the spread of the parameters of their elements, in any case,
deviations of ± 5% have practically little effect on the shape of the frequency
response. Calculations can also be carried out with appropriate accuracy. The
source and load resistances of the filter are even less critical, and deviations
of up to ± 25% are acceptable here.
