1 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,000 All right. Let's get moving. 2 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,000 Good morning. 3 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:24,000 Today, if everything works out, we have some fun for you guys. 4 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:28,000 I hope it works out. We'll see. 5 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:34,000 What I am going to do today is a very major application of the 6 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:39,000 frequency response and the frequency domain analysis of 7 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,000 circuits. And this application area is 8 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:47,000 called filters. The area of filters often times 9 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:52,000 demands a full course or a couple of full courses all by 10 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:56,000 itself. And filters are incredibly 11 00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:00,000 useful. They're used in virtually every 12 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,000 electronic device in some form or another. 13 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:08,000 They're used in radio tuners. We will show you a demo of that 14 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,000 today. They're also used in your cell 15 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,000 phones. Every single cell phone has a 16 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,000 set of filters. So, for example, 17 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:20,000 how do you pick a conversation? You pick a conversation by 18 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:25,000 picking a certain frequency and grabbing data from there. 19 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:31,000 They are also in wide area network wireless transmitters. 20 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,000 Do we have an access point here? 21 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:37,000 I don't see one, but you've seen wireless access 22 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:41,000 points. Again, there they have filters 23 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,000 in them. So, virtually every single 24 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:49,000 electronic device contains a filter at some point or another. 25 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:54,000 And so, today we will look at this major, major application of 26 00:01:54,000 --> 00:02:01,000 frequency domain analysis. Before we get into that, 27 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:09,000 I'd like to do a bit of review. The readings for today 28 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:18,000 correspond to Chapter 14.4.2, 14.5 and 15.2 in the course 29 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,000 notes. All right. 30 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:30,000 Let's start with the review. We looked at this circuit last 31 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,000 Friday -- 32 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:46,000 -- where I said that for our analysis, we are going to focus 33 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,000 on this small, small region of the playground. 34 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:55,000 And what's special about this region of our playground is that 35 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:59,000 I am going to focus on sinusoidal inputs. 36 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,000 And, second, I am going to focus on the 37 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:05,000 steady state response. How does the response look like 38 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,000 if I wait a long, long time? 39 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:12,000 And then we said that the full blown time domain analysis was 40 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,000 hard. This was, remember, 41 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,000 the agonizing approach? And then I taught you the 42 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:21,000 impedance approach in the last lecture, which was blindingly 43 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,000 simple. And, in that impedance 44 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:28,000 approach, what we said we would do is -- 45 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:32,000 I will apply the approach right now and in seconds derive the 46 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,000 result for you. But the basic idea was we said 47 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:39,000 what we are going to do is assume that we are going to 48 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,000 apply inputs of the form Vi e to the j omega t. 49 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:47,000 Wherever you see a capital and a small, there is an implicate e 50 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:51,000 to the j omega t next to it. I'm not showing you that. 51 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:55,000 And what I showed last time, and the class before that was 52 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:59,000 once you find out the amplitude -- 53 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,000 Once you find out the multiplier that multiplies e to 54 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,000 the j omega t, it's a complex number, 55 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,000 you have all the information you need. 56 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,000 And once you have this, you can find out the time 57 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,000 domain response by simply taking the modulus of that, 58 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:19,000 or the amplitude and the phase of that to get the angle. 59 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,000 And that gives you the time domain response. 60 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:27,000 So, our focus has been on these quantities. 61 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:31,000 The impedance method says what I am going to do is replace each 62 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,000 of these by impedances. And then the corresponding 63 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,000 impedance model looks like this. 64 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,000 Instead of R, I replace that with ZR. 65 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:51,000 And instead of the capacitor, I am going to replace that with 66 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,000 ZC. And this is my Vc. 67 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:59,000 ZR is simply R and ZC was going to be one divided by sC where s 68 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:04,000 was simply a shorthand notation for j omega. 69 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,000 Based on this, once I converted all my 70 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:12,000 elements into impedances, I can go ahead and apply all 71 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:16,000 the good-old linear analysis techniques. 72 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:20,000 I will discuss a bunch of them today. 73 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:24,000 As an example, I could analyze this using my 74 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,000 simple voltage divider relationship. 75 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:34,000 Vc is simply ZC divided by ZC plus ZR times Vi. 76 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:40,000 And that, in turn, is, well, let's say I divide 77 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:47,000 this by Vi so I can get the response relation, 78 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:55,000 is ZC divided by ZC plus ZR. And ZC I know to be one by j 79 00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:01,000 omega C, plus R. And multiplying throughout by j 80 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:10,000 omega C, I get one divided by one plus j omega CR. 81 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,000 It's incredibly simple. This is simply called the 82 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:19,000 frequency response. And it's a transfer function 83 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:24,000 representing the relationship between the output complex 84 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:30,000 amplitude with the input. We can also plot this. 85 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,000 Notice that in our entire analysis we have not only 86 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:37,000 assumed sinusoidal input, but we're also saying that let 87 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,000 us look at this only in the steady state. 88 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:44,000 So, we will wait for time to be really, really large, 89 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,000 and then look at the response. And so, therefore, 90 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:52,000 we will plot the response not as a function of time, 91 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:56,000 but rather we are going to plot the response as a function of 92 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,000 omega. What we are going to say is I 93 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:03,000 am going to input a sinusoid and my output is going to be some 94 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,000 other sinusoid. And since I'm waiting for a 95 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,000 long time to look at the output, time doesn't make sense 96 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,000 anymore. Rather, my free variable is 97 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,000 going to be my frequency, so I am going to change the 98 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,000 frequency of the input that I apply. 99 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,000 And so, I am going to plot this as a function of omega. 100 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,000 This represents a completely complimentary view of circuits, 101 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,000 the time domain view and then there is a frequency domain 102 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:31,000 view. The frequency domain view says 103 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:37,000 how did this circuit behave as I apply sinusoids of differing 104 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:42,000 frequencies? I can plot that relationship in 105 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:47,000 a graph like this, and this relationship is simply 106 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:51,000 given by a parameter edge the transfer function, 107 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:56,000 it's a function of omega. And I can also plot the 108 00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:02,000 absolute value of that. And let's take a look at what 109 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,000 it looks like. So, I can look at functions 110 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,000 like this and very quickly plot the response. 111 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:13,000 I am going to do a whole bunch of plots just by staring at 112 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,000 circuits and staring at expressions like this. 113 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,000 And you will see a number of them today. 114 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,000 First of all, the way you plot these is look 115 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:27,000 for the values where omega is very small and when omega is 116 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:31,000 very large. When omega is very, 117 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:36,000 very small this term goes away. And so, for very small values 118 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,000 of omega the output is simply one. 119 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,000 Vc by Vi is simply one. This part goes away. 120 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:46,000 What happens when omega is very, very large? 121 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:50,000 When omega is really large, this part dominates, 122 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:54,000 is much greater than one. If I ignore one in relation to 123 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:59,000 this guy and take the absolute value of that then I simply get 124 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:05,000 one divided by omega CR when omega is very large. 125 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:10,000 So, when omega is very large, I get a decay of the form one 126 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,000 over omega CR. I know the value for small 127 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:18,000 omega, and it looks like this for very large omega. 128 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:23,000 And, if you plot it out, this is how it's going to look 129 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:27,000 like. Let's stare at this form for a 130 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:32,000 little while longer. And let's plot some properties 131 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,000 off it. First of all, 132 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:40,000 you notice something else. When omega CR equals one then, 133 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:44,000 in other words, when omega equals one by RC, 134 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:49,000 notice that the output is given by one plus j. 135 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:55,000 And the absolute value of that is simply one divided the square 136 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,000 root of two. So, in other words, 137 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:04,000 when omega is one by RC -- When omega is one by CR then 138 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:10,000 the output is one by square root two times its value when omega 139 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:14,000 is very, very small. So, that is one little piece of 140 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,000 information. If you look at the form of 141 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:23,000 this, I would like you to stare at it for a few minutes and try 142 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:28,000 to understand what this represents. 143 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:32,000 This says that for very low frequencies the response is 144 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:36,000 virtually the same as the input in amplitude. 145 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,000 In other words, if I apply some very low 146 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:44,000 frequency sinusoid of some amplitude then the output 147 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:48,000 amplitude is going to be same as that amplitude. 148 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:52,000 And that's a one. Now, it also says when I apply 149 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:56,000 a very high frequency, at very high frequencies it 150 00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:01,000 decays. So, this graph which says I am 151 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:06,000 going to pass low frequencies without any attenuation, 152 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:12,000 without hammering it, but I am going to clobber high 153 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:18,000 frequencies and give you a very low amplitude signal at the 154 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:24,000 output but pass through, almost without attenuation, 155 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:30,000 the input at low frequencies. And so this is an example of 156 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:36,000 what is called a low pass filter or LPF. 157 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:41,000 What this is saying is that this little circuit here acts 158 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:47,000 like a low pass filter. It's a low pass filter because 159 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:52,000 it passes low frequencies without attenuation but kills 160 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:56,000 high frequencies. If I take some music, 161 00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:02,000 and you will do experiments with this in lab. 162 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,000 When is lab three? People are doing lab three 163 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,000 right now, right? Lab three is going on right now 164 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,000 and early next week as well. And, in lab three, 165 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,000 you will play with looking at the response to music of 166 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:17,000 different types of filters. If apply some music here, 167 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,000 you will see that the output will pass low frequencies but 168 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,000 really attenuate high frequencies. 169 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:26,000 You will hear a lot of the low sounding base and so on but 170 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:30,000 attenuate a lot of the high frequencies. 171 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,000 All right. The other thing that I 172 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:38,000 encourage you to do is Websim has built in pages for a large 173 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:43,000 number of such circuits. You can go in there and play 174 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:48,000 with the values of RC, or L for that matter, 175 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:53,000 for a variety of circuits. And, if you click on frequency 176 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:59,000 response, you actually get both the amplitude response and the 177 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:04,000 phase as well. You can play with various 178 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:09,000 values of RLC and see how the frequency response looks like 179 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,000 for each of the circuits. As a next step, 180 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:17,000 what I would like to do is just give you a sense of how 181 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:21,000 impedances combine. This won't be very surprising 182 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:27,000 given that they behave just like resistors, but it's good to go 183 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:32,000 through it nonetheless. Suppose, just to build some 184 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:37,000 insight, suppose I had two resistors in series. 185 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,000 All right. R1 and R2. 186 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:44,000 And this was my A and B terminals respectively. 187 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:50,000 And let's say the complex amplitude of the voltage was Vab 188 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,000 across this. Then I could relate, 189 00:13:53,000 --> 00:14:01,000 let's say Iab was the current, I can relate these resistances. 190 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:05,000 Or, I could relate Vab and Iab as follows. 191 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:10,000 Simply Vab divided by Iab equals R1 plus R2. 192 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:15,000 I know that. And the same thing applies to R 193 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:20,000 viewed as an impedance. It's still impedance R, 194 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:27,000 and so this one still goes ahead and applies. 195 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:34,000 The second thing I can try is the circuit of this form. 196 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:40,000 A, B, and I have an R1 and an L in this case. 197 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:46,000 And what I can do is, in the impedance model, 198 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:53,000 I can view this as an impedance of value j omega L. 199 00:14:53,000 --> 00:15:02,000 And I can also combine them to get the impedance between A and 200 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:06,000 B. Much as I got a resistance 201 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:11,000 between A and B, I can get an impedance between 202 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:18,000 A and B as Vab divided by Iab. And that will be given by ZR1 203 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:23,000 plus ZL, and that is simply R1 plus j omega L. 204 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:30,000 Similarly, I can do an even more complicated circuit. 205 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:36,000 So, resistance. And here I have a capacitor in 206 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:43,000 series with the resistance, and then I apply inductor to 207 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,000 it. This is A, B, 208 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,000 Iab and plus, minus Vab. 209 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:57,000 And let me call this R1 and let me call this R2 and this is C 210 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:02,000 and L. I can go about combining these 211 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:08,000 in much the same manner that I combine my resistances in the 212 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:13,000 series parallel simplifications. I can define an impedance Zab 213 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:19,000 between the A and B terminals as ZR1 plus Z of this combination, 214 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:25,000 impedance of this combination, which is simply impedance of C 215 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:30,000 and that of R2 in parallel with each other. 216 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:34,000 I get Zc in parallel with ZR2. Notice that this notation 217 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:38,000 simply says that look at the impedance of the capacitor in 218 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:41,000 parallel with a resistor. And then, finally, 219 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:45,000 I add to that the series impedance of the inductor ZL. 220 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:49,000 Exactly as you would have done for resistances, 221 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:53,000 if all of these resistances you would have said R of this piece 222 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:57,000 plus the R of the parallel combination plus the R of 223 00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:03,000 whatever was here. This time around we have 224 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:08,000 impedances. And replacing this with the 225 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:15,000 values, this is R1. I know for ZL it's j omega L. 226 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:21,000 And so, for ZL, parallel ZR2 it is given by 227 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:29,000 ZCZR2 divided by ZC plus ZR2, which is simply R1 here and j 228 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:35,000 omega L. And let me just substitute the 229 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:40,000 values here. I know that ZR2 is simply R2, 230 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:46,000 ZC is one by j omega C, and then one by j omega C plus 231 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,000 R2. And I can go ahead and simplify 232 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:54,000 that further and get my impedance Zab. 233 00:17:54,000 --> 00:18:00,000 Notice how simple analysis has become. 234 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,000 Using this technique, using the impedance method 235 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:07,000 we've managed to convert our analysis from solving 236 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:11,000 differential equations to going back to algebra. 237 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:15,000 A large part of what we do in circuits is see how we can get 238 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:20,000 back to really simple algebra and try to be clever about how 239 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,000 we do things. So, this is as far as analysis 240 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,000 is concerned. In the next five minutes, 241 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:31,000 I want to give you some insight into how you can build different 242 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:34,000 kinds of impedances. 243 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,000 And I won't go into too much detail but give some insight 244 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:50,000 into how you can get a sense for the kind of filters you want to 245 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,000 design. Or, at the very least, 246 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,000 given a filter, how can you very quickly get 247 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,000 some insight into what kind of filter it is, 248 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,000 how it performs, what its frequency response is 249 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:05,000 and so on. And, this time around, 250 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:09,000 this piece of intuition will be in honor of Umans. 251 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:14,000 And back to our Bend it Like Beckham series, 252 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,000 I call this "Unleash it like Umans". 253 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:23,000 What experts in the field do is they don't go about sitting 254 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:28,000 around writing differential equations, but rather use a lot 255 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:34,000 of insight into how to solve these things. 256 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:39,000 And so in honor of Umans, I will label this unleash it 257 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:43,000 like Umans. Let's get some insight into how 258 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,000 the response of various elements look like. 259 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:51,000 Let's take, for example, I have some impedance Z. 260 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:56,000 Let's say this could be a resistor, it could be an 261 00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:01,000 inductor or it could be a capacitor. 262 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:05,000 Let's take a look at what the frequency response of just these 263 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,000 elements look like. In other words, 264 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,000 what are the frequency dependents of Z itself? 265 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:14,000 Let me just plot the impedance of each of these elements as a 266 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,000 function of frequency. Let me just take the absolute 267 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:21,000 value of their impedance. Notice that it's a complex 268 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,000 number. For the inductor it's j omega 269 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,000 L. And let me take the absolute 270 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:30,000 value omega L in that case and plot it for you. 271 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,000 And use that to develop some insight. 272 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:38,000 Let's do a simple case first. If Z is a resistance of value R 273 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:43,000 then no matter what the frequency my value is going to 274 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,000 be R. If I have an inductor of value 275 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:51,000 L then the impedance is going to look like j omega L, 276 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:55,000 and so I am going to omega L for that. 277 00:20:55,000 --> 00:21:00,000 And the dependence of that simply says that for low omega 278 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:06,000 the impedance is very small. For omega zero the impedance is 279 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,000 zero and it increases linearly with omega. 280 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,000 So, it's omega L for the inductor. 281 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:16,000 Impedance increases linerally as I increase the frequency. 282 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:20,000 What about for the capacitor? For the capacitor, 283 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,000 the impedance is one divided by j omega C. 284 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:27,000 And so, therefore, I get the dependence being 285 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:33,000 related to omega C. Which says that for very high 286 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:38,000 frequencies impedance is very low, but for very low 287 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:45,000 frequencies the impedance is very high and I get a behavior 288 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:49,000 pattern that looks something like this. 289 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:54,000 It goes as one by omega C. As omega is very large, 290 00:21:54,000 --> 00:22:00,000 my impedance is very small. If omega is very small, 291 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,000 my impedance goes towards that of an open circuit. 292 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,000 This is not surprising. You've known this before, 293 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,000 right? That a capacitor behaves like 294 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,000 an open circuit for DC. An inductor behaves like a 295 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,000 short circuit for DC. Notice that zero frequency here 296 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,000 corresponds to DC. The capacitor looks like an 297 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,000 open circuit for DC, very high impedance. 298 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,000 The inductor looks like a short circuit for DC, 299 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:27,000 very low impedance. And the opposite is true at 300 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:31,000 very high frequencies. While R is a constant 301 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,000 throughout. Let's use this to build some 302 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,000 insight into how our circuits might look. 303 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,000 Let me do this example. 304 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:51,000 Let's say I have a Vi and I measure the response across the 305 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,000 resistor. 306 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:05,000 So, I measure Vr divided by Vi and take the absolute value and 307 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,000 take a look at how it's going to look like. 308 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:13,000 I want you to stare at this for me and help me with what the 309 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:18,000 response is going to look like. Let's take incredibly high 310 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,000 frequencies. At very high frequencies, 311 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:26,000 this has a very high frequency, what do the capacitor look like 312 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:32,000 to very high frequencies? Is it an open or is it a short? 313 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,000 A short circuit. At very high frequencies the 314 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:38,000 capacitor looks like a short circuit. 315 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,000 Then Vi simply appears across the resistor, 316 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:45,000 which means that at very high frequencies the output is very 317 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:49,000 close to the input. At very low frequencies what 318 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,000 happens? At very low frequencies the 319 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,000 capacitor looks like an open circuit. 320 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:58,000 If this looks like an open circuit then very little voltage 321 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:03,000 will drop across this resistor here because most of it is going 322 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:09,000 to drop across the capacitor. What is going to happen is, 323 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:13,000 for very low values, I am going to be looking at 324 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:17,000 something out here. And, because of that, 325 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:23,000 my response looks like this. And this is of a different form 326 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:27,000 than the one you saw earlier. In this case, 327 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:32,000 I pass high frequencies but attenuate low frequencies. 328 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:36,000 Not surprisingly, this is called a high pass 329 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,000 filter. 330 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,000 You need to begin to be able to think about capacitors and 331 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:51,000 inductors in terms of their high and low frequency properties. 332 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:55,000 And, if you develop that intuition, once you develop the 333 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:59,000 intuition about capacitors and inductors and their frequency 334 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,000 relationship, that will be a big step forward 335 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,000 in 002. If you get that insight, 336 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,000 you will go a long way in terms of knowing how to tackle 337 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,000 problems and being able to quickly sketch responses. 338 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,000 Yes. 339 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,000 In the case of, if we get something like j 340 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:30,000 omega L, what you can do is take the limit as omega goes to zero. 341 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,000 If it is omega L then notice that it is going to start 342 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:36,000 linear. And, on the other hand, 343 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,000 if when you get very high frequencies, for example, 344 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:43,000 if you get one by something omega C then this is a 345 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:47,000 hyperbolic relationship, so it is going to go ahead 346 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,000 looking like this. So, you can take a look at a 347 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:55,000 lot of these functions at their very low values and see how they 348 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:59,000 look like at that point. All right. 349 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:02,000 The next one I would like to draw for you is something that 350 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:03,000 looks like this. 351 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:12,000 Let's say, for example, I have an inductor L and a 352 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:16,000 resistor R and I want to see what that looks like. 353 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:20,000 In this particular example, I have H, take the absolute 354 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,000 value. So, what is this going to look 355 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:27,000 like? I am going to look at the value 356 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:32,000 across the resistor here. Here what I am going to find is 357 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:36,000 that at very low frequencies this guy is a short circuit. 358 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:40,000 Since this guy is a short circuit, all the voltage drops 359 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:44,000 across the resistor so it's going to look like this. 360 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:49,000 And, at very high frequencies, what I am going to find is that 361 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:52,000 the inductor is going to appear like an open circuit. 362 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:56,000 And so, therefore, all the voltage is going to 363 00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:00,000 pretty much drop across the inductor. 364 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,000 It will be R divided by something plus omega L. 365 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:08,000 So, at high frequencies this guy is going to taper off to 366 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,000 zero and is going to look like this. 367 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,000 And this is back to my low pass filter. 368 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,000 Just to go back to a question asked earlier, 369 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,000 how do you know what this looks like? 370 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:25,000 I can very quickly write down the expression for H of j omega. 371 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:32,000 This is simply going to be R divided by R plus if this is VR. 372 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:36,000 VR is simply R divided by one by j omega C. 373 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:41,000 I multiply it out by j omega C in the numerator and the 374 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:45,000 denominator. I'm going to find j omega C 375 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:49,000 here and I am going to get one by j omega C here. 376 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:55,000 And what is going to happen with something like this is that 377 00:27:55,000 --> 00:28:02,000 as omega becomes very small then I am going to ignore this. 378 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:07,000 When omega becomes very small, I can ignore this with respect 379 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:12,000 to one, and I get R j omega C. Given that, is what I've drawn 380 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:16,000 here correct or wrong? This goes away with respect to 381 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:19,000 one. I am left with R j omega C, 382 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,000 right? For very low frequencies. 383 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:26,000 Given what I have drawn here, is that correct or is that 384 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:30,000 wrong? Well, it's hard to say. 385 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:36,000 For very, very low frequencies it starts out being linear 386 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:40,000 because it's an omega relationship, 387 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:47,000 and then it goes up like this and then goes out there. 388 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:54,000 Let me go onto another example. Let me do another example here 389 00:28:54,000 --> 00:29:01,000 which is something like -- I need to make sure I don't 390 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:05,000 make a mistake here. If I get R j omega C by R j 391 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:09,000 omega C, you know what, this ends up being a first 392 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,000 order system, and so is going to look like 393 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,000 this. I blew it there. 394 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:19,000 Back to this system here. If I have an L and an R and I 395 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:23,000 look at this equation to look at what happens across L, 396 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:29,000 you can plot that again. And for very low frequencies it 397 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:34,000 is going to be zero amplitude here and for very high 398 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:38,000 frequencies this is going to be an open circuit, 399 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:43,000 and so the response is going to look something like this. 400 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:48,000 That's going to end up being your high pass filter. 401 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:53,000 As another example, I would like to do a series RLC 402 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:55,000 circuit -- 403 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:14,000 -- and try to get you some sense of what that output looks 404 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,000 like. Let's use our intuition and 405 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:22,000 first write down what this looks like and then go and do some 406 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:26,000 math and see if the math corresponds to what our 407 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:31,000 intuition tells us. I want to plot Vr with respect 408 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,000 to Vi. I want to plot it there. 409 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:38,000 For something like this, what happens at very low 410 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,000 frequencies? We are just looking to get 411 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:46,000 very, very crudely what this graph is going to look like. 412 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:51,000 Very, very crudely what this graph is going to look like. 413 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:55,000 Given that I am taking the voltage across VR, 414 00:30:55,000 --> 00:31:00,000 what happens at very low frequencies? 415 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:05,000 At incredibly low frequencies, the inductor looks like a short 416 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:09,000 circuit, but the capacitor looks like open circuit. 417 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:14,000 An open circuit in series with a short circuit that ends up 418 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:18,000 looking like an open circuit. And so, therefore, 419 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:23,000 all my voltage falls across VR. Now, what happens at very high 420 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,000 frequencies? At very high frequencies the 421 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:32,000 capacitor looks like a short. But the inductor looks like an 422 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:36,000 open circuit now for very high frequencies, correct? 423 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,000 Just remember, capacitor is short for high 424 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:42,000 frequencies inductor open for high frequencies. 425 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:46,000 So, this ends up having a very high impedance. 426 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:50,000 At very high frequencies this guy has a very high impedance. 427 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:54,000 And, because of that, for a high value of frequency, 428 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:59,000 I end up going in that manner. This behavior has the effect of 429 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:04,000 the capacitor here. And for very high frequencies I 430 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:10,000 get the effect of the inductor. And so this means that I have 431 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:14,000 very low values for low frequencies, very low values for 432 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:18,000 high frequencies. And, as the frequency 433 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,000 increases, I do something like this. 434 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:25,000 I keep building up, then the inductor begins to 435 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:30,000 play a role, and then I taper off again. 436 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:36,000 This kind of a filter where I kill low and high frequencies 437 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:42,000 and pass intermediate frequencies is called a band 438 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:46,000 pass filter, BPF. This means that it passes 439 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:53,000 frequencies in some band. Let's get some more insight on 440 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:57,000 this by writing down the equations. 441 00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:02,000 So, Vr divided by Vi is simply R. 442 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:10,000 Using the impedance relation it is R divided by j omega L plus 443 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:18,000 one divided by j omega C plus R. I am going to use this equation 444 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:26,000 later, so let me stash it away on my stack and put a little 445 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:31,000 notation there. I am going to multiply 446 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:38,000 throughout by j omega C. And what I end up getting is j 447 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:44,000 omega RC divided by one plus R j omega RC, and then here, 448 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:51,000 I get j times j is minus one, so I get minus omega squared. 449 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:59,000 Let me rewrite it this way. I get minus omega squared. 450 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:04,000 So, j j is minus one, omega times omega is omega 451 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:10,000 squared, and then I get an LC. That's what I end up getting. 452 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:16,000 And if I take the absolute value here, I end up getting, 453 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:23,000 back to your complex algebra, the square root of this real 454 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:29,000 value squared plus imaginary value squared. 455 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:34,000 So, one minus omega squared LC plus omega RC squared. 456 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:38,000 This is from, you can look it up in your 457 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:42,000 complex algebra appendix in the course notes. 458 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:47,000 It's simply omega RC here, then square of the real value 459 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:54,000 plus the square of the imaginary value, and take the square root 460 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,000 of that. By staring at this, 461 00:34:56,000 --> 00:35:04,000 you can notice that you realize a really important property. 462 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:08,000 When omega equals LC. I'm sorry. 463 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:14,000 When omega equals one divided by LC, what happens? 464 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:21,000 Sorry, square root of LC. When omega is one divided by 465 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:30,000 square root of LC then omega squared times LC becomes one. 466 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:34,000 When this is true then this becomes one, and one and one 467 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,000 cancel out. And, not only that, 468 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:41,000 when these cancel out, these two cancel out at that 469 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:47,000 point, so I end up getting a one, which means that when omega 470 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:52,000 equals omega nought equals one by square root of LC and I end 471 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:58,000 up getting a value that is one. It's pretty amazing. 472 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:01,000 Which means that if I drive this at omega nought, 473 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:06,000 if my sinusoid has a frequency omega nought where omega nought 474 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:11,000 is one by square root of LC, if I'm sitting here and this is 475 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:16,000 a black box on the right-hand side, and I drive this at a 476 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:20,000 frequency omega nought equals one divided by square root of 477 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:24,000 LC, what does this entire circuit look like to me? 478 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:29,000 I'm sitting there, the black box here. 479 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:33,000 I'm driving it at omega nought equals one by square root of LC 480 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,000 at that frequency. What does that circuit look 481 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:36,000 like? Yes. It looks like a resistor. It's pretty amazing. 482 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,000 It means that even though I have an L and a C here, 483 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:47,000 if I happen to drive this at omega nought then the circuit 484 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:51,000 looks purely resistive and it seems to give me the same input 485 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:54,000 appearing at the output. In other words, 486 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:58,000 the effect of these two cancels out. 487 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:02,000 And that aspect is called driving the circuit at its 488 00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:05,000 resonance point. Resonance is when you're 489 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:10,000 driving the circuit at omega nought equals one by a square 490 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,000 root of LC. 491 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:27,000 I will very quickly sketch for you a couple of other ways of 492 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:32,000 looking at circuits. Supposing I looked at this 493 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:37,000 value here, Vlc, I looked at the value across 494 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:43,000 the inductor and the capacitor, what will the frequency 495 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:48,000 response look like? I am looking at the voltage 496 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:53,000 across the inductor and the capacitor in series. 497 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:57,000 Let's see. Let's go back to our usual 498 00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:01,000 mantra. Think about Steve Umans when 499 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,000 you do this. What would he do? 500 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:07,000 He would say ah-ha, at very low frequencies the 501 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,000 capacitor is going to look like an open circuit. 502 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:14,000 In my voltage divider, I am measuring the voltage 503 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:18,000 across an open circuit, so the entire Vi must drop 504 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,000 across the inductor and capacitor. 505 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:25,000 Similarly, at very high frequencies the inductor looks 506 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:30,000 like an open circuit now, so it looks like this. 507 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:35,000 At very high frequencies inductor is an open circuit. 508 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:42,000 And, again, I'm looking at the voltage divider across the near 509 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:47,000 infinite resistance, impedance, so I get a high 510 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:52,000 value here as well. Well, in the middle the value 511 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:56,000 dips and I get something like this. 512 00:38:56,000 --> 00:39:02,000 So, this thing is called a band stop filter. 513 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:07,000 Here I can nail any specific frequency, as long as the 514 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:12,000 frequency falls in roughly that regime. 515 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:15,000 Yet another example. 516 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:23,000 The reason I'm working on so many examples is that to 517 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:27,000 experts, a large part of what they do is look at a circuit and 518 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:30,000 boom, give a rough form of how it looks like. 519 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:33,000 That can get you half the way there in most of what you're 520 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:37,000 going to do. How did this look like? 521 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:43,000 If I take the voltage Vo versus Vi, let's take a look. 522 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:49,000 At very low frequencies, the inductor looks like a short 523 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:54,000 circuit, correct? I am talking the voltage across 524 00:39:54,000 --> 00:40:00,000 a short circuit, so it looks like this. 525 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:04,000 At very high frequencies, I am taking a voltage across a 526 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:09,000 parallel combination, but the capacitor is now a 527 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:12,000 short circuit. So, that looks like a 528 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:16,000 capacitor. This looks like an inductor out 529 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:20,000 here and this is a capacitor holding sway here. 530 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:25,000 And so, somewhere in the middle it goes up and comes down like 531 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:30,000 that. So, it's a band pass filter. 532 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,000 What is amazing is that you can take fairly complicated 533 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:36,000 circuits, and just by doing a quick analysis of what happens 534 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:39,000 at very low frequencies, what happens at very high 535 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:42,000 frequencies, you can roughly sketch the response. 536 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,000 And then what you should do, in addition to that, 537 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:48,000 is if it's a second order circuit, just assume that it's 538 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:51,000 going to do something interesting at its resonance 539 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,000 frequency, at omega nought equals one by square root of LC. 540 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:57,000 Something interesting is going to happen. 541 00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:01,000 Check it out. And for circuits that are first 542 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:05,000 order, RC or RL, the important number is the 543 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:09,000 time constant RC. Usually, when you're driving it 544 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,000 at one by RC, omega equals one by RC then 545 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:17,000 what happens is that you often times end up getting a value 546 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:22,000 that is one by square root two times the input value in the 547 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:26,000 circuits we looked at here. Next, what I am going to do is 548 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:32,000 talk about a major, major application of filters. 549 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:41,000 And that is an AM receiver. Let me do Radios 101 for 30 550 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:48,000 seconds. These guys have an antenna. 551 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:57,000 You take a ground here. You pick up a signal at your 552 00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:02,000 antenna. There is an implied ground as 553 00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:03,000 well. And what you do, 554 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:07,000 as a first step, is you begin processing the 555 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:10,000 signal now. What we place right there is a 556 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,000 little filter that looks like this. 557 00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:16,000 It is a inductor and a capacitor in parallel. 558 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:20,000 And this capacitor is really your tuner that you can tune to 559 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:24,000 radio frequencies. And then what you have here is 560 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:30,000 a bunch of other processing and end up with your speaker. 561 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:36,000 And the processing that happens here is you have a demodulator, 562 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:42,000 you have an amplifier and a bunch of other things that let's 563 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:48,000 not worry about them for now. What we do here is the antenna 564 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:51,000 picks up a signal. So, in some sense, 565 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:56,000 this part of the circuit here is your source. 566 00:42:56,000 --> 00:43:03,000 I could replace it with its Thevenin equivalent as follows. 567 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:13,000 So, the front end of your radio looks like a Vi, 568 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:17,000 R, L and a C. Where have you seen this 569 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,000 before? Right there. 570 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:26,000 That's the front end of radios. Let me tell you why I need a 571 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:31,000 band pass filter in a radio out here. 572 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:35,000 The way life works is as follows. 573 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:41,000 I have my frequency. Let me do this not in radians 574 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:48,000 but in kilohertz for now, and let me plot your radio 575 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:52,000 signal strength. In the Boston area, 576 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:59,000 the signals go between 540 kilohertz and they go all the 577 00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:06,000 way to 1600 kilohertz. In some areas we have begun to 578 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:10,000 use the 1700 extra band as well for some new stations. 579 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:13,000 This is the frequency range of interest. 580 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:17,000 If you look at your radio tuner, you will see 540 581 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:22,000 kilohertz all the way up to 1600 and you can tune your AM radio. 582 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:27,000 The way it works is that each station is given 10 kilohertz of 583 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:31,000 spectrum here. And so, this is at 1000 584 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:36,000 kilohertz, 1010 kilohertz and so on. 585 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:43,000 And each station transmits its signal in plus or minus 5 586 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:50,000 kilohertz around that point. And this station transmits it 587 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:57,000 here and this station transmits it here and so on. 588 00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:02,000 This is 1030. This guy is WBZ News Radio 589 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:06,000 1030, for those of you who listen to it. 590 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:12,000 What happens is that at 10 kilohertz, each station gets 10 591 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:18,000 kilohertz, and so WBZ transmits in the 10 kilohertz around 1030. 592 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:23,000 Notice that each of these signals transmitted by radio 593 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:28,000 stations happen within small bands. 594 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:31,000 Now, you will learn a lot more about modulation and how do you 595 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:34,000 get a signal to go in a small band and all that stuff. 596 00:45:34,000 --> 00:00:06,003 You will learn about that in 597 00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:39,000 For now, don't worry about how I did all of this. 598 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,000 How do you listen to that station? 599 00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:44,000 The way you listen to that station is you put a low pass 600 00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:47,000 filter here. You put a low pass filter that 601 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:49,000 does the following. Let's say I want to hear WBZ 602 00:17:10,000 --> 00:45:51,000 If I can arrange to have the 603 00:45:56,000 --> 00:46:00,000 If I pass this entire signal through that filter. 604 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:04,000 And if I arrange to have the omega nought of my filter at 605 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:11,000 omega nought at 1030 then this is the response of my filter. 606 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:17,000 And I am going to pick out this guy and cut out everything else. 607 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:20,000 I am just going to get this. 608 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:42,000 Let's listen to the station for some time. 609 00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:55,000 So, you can see I can tune to the station WBUL.
