Low Pass Filter

Circuit:


Analysis:

The left part of the circuit is simply the voltage adder, this time I added a sine wave of 1 Hz with a sine wave of 100 Hz. The goal is to filter away the 100 Hz signal.

The low pass filter I used is a simple RC filter. Denote the voltage of the opamp output to be Vs

1dVoutdt=I=VsVout1

Set Vs=eiωt and Vout=H(ω)eiωt, we get:

H(ω)iωeiωt=eiωtH(ω)eiωt
H(ω)iω=1H(ω)
H(ω)=11+iω

Note that ω is in the denominator, meaning for large ω, the frequency response has a very small gain, so it is effectively removed. Also note that we have some phase shift because the frequency response is complex.
