An automatic-scheme approach to design state-variable biquadratic RC filters with the digital computer is presented. The relatively complex computer program includes a sparse matrix solution technique and an operational amplifier macro-model. However, all the mathematical complexity is transparent to the user. The program is simple to use even for non-specialists.
