L1 3.16.1.1
What is a characteristic of a band pass filter circuit?
A. Allows a selected range of frequencies to pass while frequencies above and below this range
are greatly attenuated.
B. Rejects signals over a narrow frequency range.
C. Passes all frequencies above the cut-off frequency with little or no attenuation.
Ans A

L1 3.16.1.2
What is a characteristic of a low pass filter circuit?
A. Passes AC signals below the specified cut-off frequency, while it rejects the AC signals above
the cut-off frequency.
B. Passes AC signals above the specified cut-off frequency, while it rejects the AC signals below
the cut-off frequency.
C. Allows a selected range of frequencies to pass while frequencies above and below this range
are greatly attenuated.
Ans A

L1 3.16.1.3
What is a characteristic of a high pass filter circuit?
A. Passes AC signals above the specified cut-off frequency, while it rejects the AC signals below
the cut-off frequency.
B. Rejects signals over a narrow frequency range.
C. Passes AC signals below the specified cut-off frequency, while it rejects the AC signals above
the cut-off frequency.
Ans A

L1 3.16.1.4
What is a characteristic of a band stop filter circuit?
A. Allows a selected range of frequencies to pass while frequencies above and below this range
are greatly attenuated.
B. Rejects signals over a narrow frequency range.
C. Passes all frequencies above the cut-off frequency with little or no attenuation.
