2. Butterworth (Active Lowpass, Active Higehpass, Active Bandpass, Active Bandstop)
3. Bessel (Active Lowpass, Active Higehpass, Active Bandpass, Active Bandstop)
4. Elliptic(Cauer) (Active Lowpass, Active Higehpass, Active Bandpass, Active Bandstop)
5. Ideal (Active Lowpass, Active Higehpass, Active Bandpass, Active Bandstop)

Design Steps

Step  1:   Evoke filter designer from Tools menu of Schematic Editor.

Step  2:   Select the required filter and set the parameters .

Step   3:   After setting the parameters click on Calculate Parameters Button. Component parameters values are automatically calculated depending up on the output frequency.

Step   4:   Click on Import Diagram button. The Diagram of the filter will get tagged to the cursor, place the diagram in the required position on the work sheet.

To check the functionality

Step   1:  From Tools| Instruments| Set Reference Points, Keep AC IN + and AC IN - on input and ground node. Similarly AC OUT + and    AC OUT – on out put and ground mode.

Step  2:   Keep wave form markers on input and output nodes from Tools| Instruments| Set Wave form Contents |Voltage waveform.

Step   3:  Enable either Mixed Mode Simulation or EDSpice Simulation from preference.

Step   4:  Preprocess the Circuit.

Step   5:  Set the parameters for the AC Sweep analysis.

 
Step   6:  Execute the Analysis and observe the waveform.
