Is this transfer function impossible with a low-pass Sallen-key filter?
I was given this transfer function and instructed to use a Sallen-key cascaded with a 1st order filter to achieve it.
$$H(s)=\frac{628^3}{(s+628)(s^2+628s+628^2)}$$
The first order transfer function ...

Why is the cutoff frequency of this highpass filter with formula different from LTspice?
I used this online tool to play around and design a Sallen-Key low pass filter with a cutoff frequency of 0.3Hz. When I now put the resulting values for R1, R2, C1 and C2 in the formula I get exactly ...

Why does this potentiometer in an op-amp feedback path cause noise when adjusted?
I have placed a dual-gang 100k potentiometer in the feedback path of two op-amps that work as a Sallen-Key filters. This controls gain but also the Q factor of the filter (somewhat demonstrated on ...

Sallen-Key - how opamp input bias current changes cutoff frequency?
As in the title: what exactly is the impact of input bias current in Sallen-Key topology, for example the one below:
I read that it can matter significantly, however I did not find anything more on ...

Input impedance of low pass filter on LTspice must be constant in it's pass band?
I have single supplied sallen-key filter more that have nice 3MHz flat LPF response.
I tried to compute the resistance directly by dividing the input voltage by input current which is the voltage and ...
