3-F-046: Filters and IF Amplifiers

3-46F1: What is the primary purpose of the final IF amplifier stage in a receiver?

Gain.

Dynamic response.

Noise figure performance.

Bypass undesired signals.



3-46F2: What factors should be considered when selecting an intermediate frequency?

Image rejection and selectivity.

Cross-modulation distortion and interference.

Interference to other services.

Noise figure and distortion.



3-46F3: What is the primary purpose of the first IF amplifier stage in a receiver?

Selectivity.

Noise figure performance.

Tune out cross-modulation distortion.

Dynamic response.



3-46F4: What parameter must be selected when designing an audio filter using an op-amp?

Bandpass characteristics.

Desired current gain.

Temperature coefficient.

Output-offset overshoot.



3-46F5: What are the distinguishing features of a Chebyshev filter?

It allows ripple in the passband.

It has a maximally flat response over its passband.

It only requires inductors.

A filter whose product of the series- and shunt-element impedances is a constant for all frequencies.



3-46F6: When would it be more desirable to use an m-derived filter over a constant-k filter?

When you need more attenuation at a certain frequency that is too close to the cut-off frequency for a constant-k filter.

When the response must be maximally flat at one frequency.

When the number of components must be minimized.

When high power levels must be filtered.
