This thesis presents the analysis and characterization of a low sensitivity dual feedback active RC bandpass filter. Chapter 2 details the analysis of the network and a method of simplifying the resultant transfer function by a single pole/zero cancellation. Chapter 3 characterizes the simplified transfer function through an analysis of the quality factor and of the center frequency gain as functions of the individual variables of the circuit. It also details sensitivity analyses of these characteristic quantities and a stability analysis. Lastly, chapter 3 presents graphical representations of the equations developed so that they can be used as design tools. It then goes through the details of applying these graphs to an example network. Chapter 4 explains the differences between experimental data and predicted data by discussing some of the nonlinearities neglected in the original analysis. Finally chapter 5 restates the design technique in light of the predominant nonlinearities.
