Title: To study the frequency response of RC High Pass filter.

Theory:
A high-pass filter (HPF) is an electronic filter that passes signals with
a frequency higher than a certain cutoff frequency and attenuates signals with
frequencies lower than the cutoff frequency
A High Pass Filter is the exact opposite to the low pass filter circuit as the two
components have been interchanged with the filters output signal now being taken from
across the resistor

The transfer function of an RC high pass filter is given by:

𝐻(𝑗𝜔) = 𝑗𝜔𝑅𝐶 / (1 + 𝑗𝜔𝑅𝐶)

Circuit Diagram

The amount of attenuation for each frequency depends on the filter design.
Procedure:
• The circuit setup for the RC high pass filter was prepared by connecting a resistor
and a capacitor in series on experimental board.
• The input signal was generated using a function generator and connected to the
input of the RC high pass filter.
• The output voltage across the filter was measured using an oscilloscope.
• The frequency of the input signal was varied, and the corresponding output
voltage was recorded for each frequency.
• The measurements were taken across a range of frequencies, starting from a high
frequency and gradually decreasing to lower frequencies.
• The experiment was repeated three times to ensure the consistency of the results.

Observations:
The following table presents the measured output voltages across different
frequencies for the RC high pass filter:

130 10.80 9.60 0.889

Graph:
This plot is known as a Bode plot.

The cutoff frequency (fc) of the filter can be determined by finding the frequency at which the
output voltage is reduced by 3 dB (approximately 70.7% of the input voltage). In this
experiment, the cutoff frequency was found to be approximately 1,000 Hz.

Conclusion:
Understanding the frequency response of filters is crucial in various applications, such as audio
processing, signal conditioning, and communications. The RC high pass filter, in particular, finds
widespread use in electronic circuits to suppress low-frequency noise and emphasize higher-
frequency components of a signal.
