Abstract
The need for RF filters to attenuate interference band of frequencies, generated in signal processing circuits is explained with a practical example. The pass band of filters could be positioned in four ways and hence there are four types of filters. The basic characteristics of low pass, high pass, band pass and band reject filters are explained. Integrated filtering circuits and the industrial applications of filters are also explained with examples.
