I am trying to scale an existing front end receiver (butterworth
bandpass) filter to a different frequency range. Unfortunately, it has
a transformer in the original design, so I'm stuck. I also don't know
how to handle the load presented by the active front end component
other than it's probably not significantly reactive.

The existing filter is for a 7 Mhz receiver, I'd like to have a
similar filter design for 50 to 200 Khz.

The filter components and transformer winding details are in the
document at:

The input chip is an FST3126, spec sheet is at:

The spec for the T30-2 transformer core is at:

http://partsandkits.com/T30-2.htm

I have aade filter design software, but it isn't allowing me to plug
in the transformer into the design page of the software....so, I need
to know it's equivalent circuit I think.

The transformer winding details are on page 4 of the document and the
schematic of the front end is page 9. Ultimately, I need new values
for L1, L2, C20, C21 and C22.

If someone can give me a reasonable guess as to the equivalent circuit
of the transformer and the IC (U5), I can do the rest of the job
myself using the aade filter software.

Thanks,
