Courses / Module

• Explain conceptually what resonance and bandwidth mean in the context of RLC networks.
• List and draw the frequency specifications of the four basic types of filters.
• Draw a bode plot of a network function.
• Design and build a passive filter based on a Butterworth response.
• Use RLC circuits to modulate bandwidth and resonance as needed.
