Passive electrical filter design consists of inductors and capacitors in various configurations, and possibly using resistors to discharge capacitors or dampen circuit resonance. In an ideal world, inductors increase impedance with higher frequency, and capacitors decrease impedance with higher frequency, while resistor values do not change. However, this is not the case in real applications. The…
