Texas Instruments has introduced the updated version of FilterPro design tool. FilterPro v3.0 offers an improved user interface and an accurate and robust filter design engine. The new updates include the ability to adjust passive element tolerances and view response variations; scale passive component values; and view and export filter performance data to Excel. The tool allows designers to create and edit designs easily using the Filter Design Wizard. Users can design multiple feedback, Sallen-Key, low-pass, high-pass, band-pass and band-stop filters using voltage feedback op amps.
The tool supports design file migration from FilterPro v2.0 so that designs created in the prior version can benefit from the functionality of v3.0. It easily generates schematics, views frequency and time responses, and prints professional design reports containing all design data and schematics to help speed time to market. The tool supports Bessell, Butterworth, Chebychev, Gaussian and linear phase filter response types and can be used to design filters from one to ten poles, providing design flexibility. The tool also supports low-pass, high-pass, notch/band-stop, band-pass, and all-pass phase shift/time delay filters to help ease system design.
