The

is 
a 4-polelow-pas 
filter network that
is controlled by the front 
panel 
FRF-QUENCY  RANCE
switch. The

The basic 
filter 
configuration is 
dlown in Figure 4-5.
Tlle filter 
is corllprised of two active  sec tions 
(lC 
I 
, 
IC2) 
and
aII in]pedance 
converter 
(lC3). 
Lach of the two sections
cortains an operational  anrplilier which 
serves  as a 
voltage-
controllcd voltage 
source.  F ter 
response 
is determined by
the R/C elements  in the input and 
feedback 
networks of
the operatiorEl 
amplifiers. The 
resistive elements 
remain
constant 
wtrile the appropriate values of capacitance 
are
selectcd by nrearrs oI FET

Thc FDT
