Apparatus and methods for control and calibration of tunable filters
Last updated:
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods for control and calibration of tunable filters are provided. In certain embodiments, a tunable filter includes at least one controllable component (for instance, a controllable inductor or a controllable capacitor) having a value that changes or adjusts a center frequency of the tunable filter. For example, the controllable component can correspond to a controllable inductor or a controllable capacitor of an inductor-capacitor (LC) resonator of the tunable filter. The tunable filter further includes a control circuit implemented with an approximation function for estimating a value of the controllable component for achieving a desired center frequency indicated by a frequency control signal.
