Hi,
here's an efficient 3-tap FIR filter that you might
want to consider. The filter's 1st and 3rd coefficients
are both ones. The center coefficient is
-2cos(2*pi*Fn/Fs)
where Fn is the notch location in Hz, and Fs
is the sample rate in Hz.
Good Luck,
[-Rick-]

A high-pass filter should do the trick - don't need a notch normally.

Hi,
thanks a lot for the tips. I will check.

if the latter (digital filter), you can check out the biquad notch filter at
the Audio EQ Cookbook at harmony-central.com .

Be aware that if you have a signal contaminated by AC line noise, that
this line noise often contain harmonics of the 50 Hz (or 60Hz in the
US) as well.
If it sounds like a BUZZ instead of a hum, it has harmonics.

There are infinitely many, though I suppose you can limit yourselves to
analog filters that are practical to construct and digital filters that
fit in your time/memory constraints.
Take a look at the Scientist and Engineer's Guild to DSP over here:
http://www.dspguide.com/pdfbook.htm
Read chapters 14-21. There are examples of exactly what you want to do.

Hi,
I am searching a mathematical solution for a notch filter.
I measured a signal with a ADC and I want to kill one frequency (50Hz)
out of the measurement data.
Does anyone of you know a mathematical function for a notch filter ?
best regards
Oliver
