Abstract
A system and method for filter tuning are presented. The system comprises means for adjusting the components of a filter by coarse adjustments such that the filter is set with an initial cutoff frequency of adequate accuracy to satisfy the requirements of the filter application, and means for adjusting the components of the filter by fine adjustments such that the filter is set to maintain the accuracy of the initial cutoff frequency in response to cutoff frequency drift. The method comprises the steps of adjusting the components of a filter by coarse adjustments such that the filter is set with an initial cutoff frequency of adequate accuracy to satisfy the requirements of the filter application, and adjusting the components of the filter by fine adjustments such that the filter is set to maintain the accuracy of the initial cutoff frequency in response to cutoff frequency drift.
