I don't mind having to do a bit of tweaking of values myself if anyone has something close to that they can post. Passive L/C combinations only, please. (assume the usual 50R nominal Zs.) Lots of books out there with normalized tables. Go to a technical university library and spend a few hours pouring thru some filter books. You can use Linear Technology's FilterCad to see what sort of filter type and order you need. Then hit the tables and make an LC filter. The best book I have found is "Simplified Modern Filter Design" by Philip Geffe, circa 1963. You can sometimes find this book in a university technical library. It has an excellent treatment of basic filter design and how to go from a low-pass prototype to other filter types. For your particular filter, you might consider a loose-coupled design, also called coupled resonators. Good for Q 10. Your design will just fit into this category if you don't mind some imperfection. This type of design produces nice component values. "Electronic Filter Design Handbook", by Arthur Williams and Fred Taylor (ISBN 0-07-070434-1), page 5-19 has info. Mark |

Thanks, p. -- The BBC: Licensed at public expense to spread lies. Download the freeware filter design software from http://www.nuhertz.com/ Their UI is, uh, colorful, but it seems to work. Pay attention to the source and load impedance. Also, it doesn't like 'engineering' notation (eg: 17.2Meg), so use scientific notation like 17.2e6 instead. The freeware only designs filters to 3rd order, so if you need better than that, either dig it out of a book or buy the software. However, it does both passive and active filters. Its a bargain at twice the price... ;) Regards, Bob Monsen |

Download RFSim99 and let it do it for you. Download Filter Design
from AADE's site and let it do it for you. Download NuHertz's demo version of their filter design software and let it do it for you. There may even be web aplets that will do it for you. And then you can play with configurations and shape factors and the inevitable tradeoffs between complexity and shape factor. Cheers, Tom Paul Burridge wrote in message . ..
