Notch filter is known as band-cut filter or band-reject filter. The fuction of this filter is to remove some frequency portion of a signal. The schematic diagram of this filter circuit, a second order notch filter is depicted in the figure below. The formula is actually complicated, but by taking the R3=R4 and [...]

Using a single supply quad comparator LM339, LM239, LM2901, LM2901V, NCV2901, or MC3302, we can build a square-wave oscillator with simple circuit and formula. Here is the schematic diagram: This circuit is suitable if you need many square-wave oscillators in one circuit, since the quad packaged comparator provide four comparators in one single [...]

The excellent high input impedance, high slew rate, and high voltage qualities of CA3140 op-amp make it suitable for Wien-bridge sine wave oscillator. The basic circuit for Wien-bridge sine wave oscillator is shown in the figure below (the upper part). You can see the formula in the figure, when R1=R2=R, and C1=C2=C, then the formula [...]

Although this circuit use more resistor components than in basic standard three op-amps instrumentation amplifier circuit, this circuit has the benefit of easy gain adjustment with only one control resistor. Because the easy gain adjustment feature, this circuit topology has been used inside a single chip instrumentation amplifier ic. The figure below shows the schematic [...]

The simple low-pass filter is shown in Figure below. The filter has a 20dB/decade roll-off after its corner frequency fc. Its low-pass frequency gain (f->0) is defined by R3/R1. This allows low-frequency gains other than unity to be obtained. R2 should be chosen equal to the parallel combination of R1 and R3 to minimize error [...]
