a high pass filter is shown in Figure 5.36. The frequency domain input–output voltage
relationship of a high pass op-amp filter is

in
where the time constant of the first-order filter = RC. Notice that the only difference

between the low pass and high pass filter is the placement of the resistor and capacitor in
the (+) input terminal.
Similarly, the input–output voltage relationship can be derived for the high pass filter.
Notice that the location of the resistor and capacitor on the circuit is swapped compared to
the low pass filter. Following a similar derivation process, it is straightforward to derive the
input–output voltage relationship.

pass filter, the filter passes the frequency content above this frequency and attenuates the
frequency content below that frequency. The low pass filter does the opposite.
Band Pass Filter Op-Amp A band pass filter passes a selected narrow band of
frequencies, and suppresses the rest (Figure 5.36). The design parameters of the filter are
to select the frequency band to pass: center frequency and the width around that frequency,
w and Δw . It can be realized by a low pass and high pass filter in series.

Band Reject Filter Op-Amp A band reject filter passes all frequencies except a
selected narrow band of frequencies (Figure 5.36). This is also called a notch filter, and
basically does the opposite of the band pass filter. The design parameters of a notch filter are
to select the center frequency and the width of the frequency around the center frequency
that will be suppressed, w and Δw . It can be realized by a low pass and high pass filter in

Instrumentation Op-Amp An instrumentation op-amp is used to amplify small
sensor signals in noisy environments (Figure 5.37). It is a modified version of the differential
op-amp with improved performance characteristics (i.e., higher input impedance, easy
adjustment of gain). The instrumentation amplifier has a higher CMRR (common mode
