Higher Order Filter Design
• When two (or more) filters are cascaded in
series, the total transfer function is the
product of the individual transfer functions
• HTOTAL(s) = H1(s) H2(s)

Higher Order Filter Design
• In filter design, a term known “Butterworth
Polynomials” has been formulated to aid the process
of the design
• These polynomials is useful to determine the required
values of resistors related to filter gain
• The list of “Butterworth Polynomials” is given in
table in the next slide
Higher Order Filter Design
Higher Order Filter Design
• In higher order filter design, the Sallen & Key
configuration is normally used
• The Sallen and Key configuration realises a two-pole
filter section using a single op-amp
• Synthesis by sections creates higher order filters by
cascading first and second order sections
• Under ideal assumptions, the order of the sections is
irrelevant
• Practically, dynamic range considerations decide the
order of the sections
Higher Order Filter Design
• To get the highest maximum input signal range:
• Sections with the largest damping ratio (lowest Q) should come
first
• Resonant sections with low damping ratios come last, possibly
susceptible to noise
• To get the lowest output noise:
• Highest gain sections (i.e. most resonant) should come first
• Subsequent sections attenuate noise
• What is the best order ?
• It depends on the required specification
Higher Order Filter Design
• Example 1: Design a 2nd order HPF with cut-off
frequency of 200Hz
• Solve for components related to frequency first. Let
C1 = C2 = C and R1 = R2 = R
• 𝑓 =
1
2𝜋𝑅𝐶
= 200
• Assume a value either R or C, then calculate another
component. Let say assume 𝐶 = 2.2𝜇𝐹, thus
• 𝑅 =

2𝜋 200 2.2𝜇
= 361 Ω
