Abstract

An improved crystal notch filter is disclosed with a large passband-to-stopband ratio. The filter has individual sections with discrete crystal devices. In one embodiment as a 55 MHz trap, the filter has a passband from about 50 MHz to about 212 MHz with a 1 KHz stop band about a center frequency that may be tuned by means of a laser-trimmed bridging resistor.
