Hi,
Trying to design a 433 MHz filter, BW = 28 MHz... Top -C
The filter is just for learning exercise
The first image (top schematic) is the derived filter from analysis. But simulation got it at 435 MHz, 27.3 MHz bandwidth
The series coupling capacitor are small, so I changed to the bottom schematic which is equivalent.
38.77 nH
The 2nd image, is the schematic on the board.
I did not want to "add" capacitors to get a single value so used 1 capacitor (s parameters) then adjusted the inductor values.
The major concern, is what the prototype is saying.
Which is the 3rd image. Shows the response on board and response from the schematic from 2nd image.
Please how can I do it better? and for a given frequency for a filter, what inductor value (/impedance) to use?
If you have the first schematic to build, how will you do it?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
