Notch Filter Circuit

The most common Notch filter design is the twin-T notch filter network. In its basic form, the twin-T is also called a parallel-T configuration. It consists of two RC branches in the form of two tee sections connected in parallel.

How does twin T notch filter work?

The Q factor for this passive filter design is about . 25; to get a larger Q factor, an active design is necessary. The Twin-T design works by phase shifting the input 180 degrees out of phase in the legs of the circuit and adding them again at the output to cancel at the desired frequency.

What is the purpose of a notch filter?

Notch filters are used to remove a single frequency or a narrow band of frequencies. In audio systems, a notch filter can be used to remove interfering frequencies such as powerline hum. Notch filters can also be used to remove a specific interfering frequency in radio receivers and software-defined radio.

What is notch filter 50hz?

This new type of digital notch filter can be used for suppression of 50 Hz noise in the ECG. The filter is simple to design and easy to implement on most 8-bit microprocessors. It has a high execution speed, low analogue to digital noise, low recursive noise and good frequency response with no overshoot or ringing.
