LOW NOISE PARAMETRIC EQUALIZER
The circuit in Figure 69 is a reciprocal parametric equalizer
yielding ±20 dB of cut or boost with variable bandwidth and
frequency. The frequency control range is 6.9:1, with the geometric
mean center frequency conveniently occurring at the midpoint
of the potentiometer setting. The center frequency is equal to
48 Hz/Ct, where Ct is the value of C1 and C2 in microfarads.
The bandwidth control adjusts the Q from 0.9 to about 11. The
overall noise is setting dependent, but with all controls centered,
it is about −104 dBV in a 20 kHz bandwidth. Such a low noise
level can obviate the need for a bypass switch in many applications.
