rfckt.lchighpasspi

Highpass pi filter

expand all in page

Description

Use the rfckt.lchighpasspi object to create a two-port highpass pi filter as a network of inductors and capacitors as shown in this figure..

2-port LC highpass pi network

In the diagram, [L1, L2, L3, ...] is the value of the 'L' object property, and [C1, C2, C3, ...] is the value of the 'C' object property.

Note

lcladder is recommended over rfckt.lchighpasspi because it enables you to:

  • Create a two-port highpass pi filter.

  • Convert an rffilter object to an LC ladder filter.

  • Build a circuit object with a highpass pi filter.

  • Model a two-port highpass pi filter element in an RF chain created using an rfbudget object or the RF Budget Analyzer app, and then export this element to RF Blockset™ or to rfsystem System object™ for circuit envelope analysis.

Creation

Syntax

h = rfckt.lchighpasspi
h = rfckt.lchighpasspi('Property1',value1,'Property2',value2,...)

Description

h = rfckt.lchighpasspi returns an LC highpass pi network object whose properties all have their default values.

example

h = rfckt.lchighpasspi('Property1',value1,'Property2',value2,...) sets properties using one or more name-value pairs. You can specify multiple name-value pairs. Enclose each property name in a quote

Properties

expand all

Computed S-parameters, noise figure, OIP3, and group delay values, specified as rfdata.data object. The values are computed over the specified frequency range. By default, this property is empty.

Data Types: function_handle

Capacitance value from source to load of all capacitors in the network, specified as a positive vector in farads. The default value is [0.1188e-5, 0.1188e-5].

Data Types: double

Inductance value from source to load of all inductors in the network, specified as a positive vector in henries. The default value is [2.2363e-9].

Data Types: double

Object name, specified as a 1-by-N character array. This is a read-only property.

Data Types: char

Number of ports, specified as a positive integer. This is a read-only property. The default value is 2.

Data Types: double
