(Not required, but for fun)

 Fun application
 Any wave or signal can be made up of tons of sinusoidal signals composed of different frequencies and
 amplitudes. The program below creates a square wave from n-number of input signals. Play around with 
 the number of input signals to see the effect of adding more and more input signals.

To run this program you will need to edit the code and use your summing op amp function.

   MT240_15_1_1 Active Filter

  Objective: Design a an active, low-pass filter using an op-amp

  Commands: none

  Background: While designing your crossover network you realized that
  the bass speaker's (low pass) amplifier has broken. You then decide to
  build the low pass filter and amplifier as one unit using an op-amp. 
  You decide to get fancy and use a variable capacitor so that you can
  change the corner frequency.


  Exercise: You decide to have design according to the topology shown in
  the image below.
  a) Design your circuit to have a max gain of 10.
  b) Your variable capacitor can assume values within the range: C = 1e-8:1e-7:1e-6;
  c) For every capacitor value calculate the transfer function |H(jw)| as a 
     a function of frequency using w(rads/sec) = 0:5*2*pi:3e5*2*pi;
  d) Create a bode plot of the results obtained in part c. Plot them all on
     the same graph.
  d) What value should the capacitor be if you want a corner frequency of
     about 140 Hz?
  e) What affect does the size of the capacitor have on the bandwidth?
