This tutorial paper outlines the design procedure and compares the response of three different forms of active band-pass filter circuit, which are designed to meet the same basic filter specification. The paper shows in particular how the response varies with the spread of operational amplifier gain-bandwidth product; this spread exists, in practice, amongst operational amplifiers of any given type.
