VARIABLE Q FILTER
ZXF36L01
DESCRIPTION
The ZXF36L01 is a versatile analog high Q bandpass
filter. The device contains two sections:
1 Variable Q bandpass filter.
2 Mixer block.
The basic filter section requires 2 resistors and 2
capacitors to set the centre frequency. The filter
operates up to a frequency of 150kHz. Two external
resistors control filter Q Factor. The Q can be varied up
to 50.
The mixer is includedto extend thefrequency range up
to 700kHz and to permit the centre frequency to be
tuned. The local oscillator can be any waveform,
making microprocessor control convenient.

Gain at fo describes the peak gain of
the notch pass filter. This gain is
defined by the value of Q Factor.
The curve shows Q Factor over
frequency for a fixed loop gain
(Rf/Ri).
