3rd order Multiple feedback High-pass Filter Design Tool

This page is a web calculator that design a 3rd order Multiple feedback high-pass filter. Use this utility to simulate the Transfer Function for filters at a given frequency, damping ratio ζ or values of R and C. The response of the filter is displayed on graphs, showing Bode diagram, Nyquist diagram, Impulse response and Step response.

Calculate the R and C values for the Multiple feedback filter at a given frequency and damping ratio ζ

Vi→ →Vo
※ 3rd order filters are usually made from combinations of 1st and 2nd order filters following the equivalent block diagram.


Equivalent block diagram:
