I might have mentioned that, whereas the poles of a Butterworth lie equally spaced on a semicircle, those of a Chebychev Type I lie on a semiellipse (the semidiameter on the real axis is shortened) but are otherwise similarly arrayed; that a Butterworth's transfer function has only one variable term (that, in the denominator) and the exponent of that term is the order of the filter; and ... But I'm not writing that treatise, am I? Jerry -- Engineering is the art of making what you want from things you can get. �����������������������������������������������������������������������

I don't know. Are you? Nevertheless, it's always fun to read stuff from people who are capable of presenting complicated stuff in both succinct, comprehensable and precise ways. Rune Rune
