30. Filters

Various low-pass and high-pass RC and RL filters can be constructed to your taste. The Pasco Waveform Analyzer has tunable low, high, and band-pass filters built into its circuitry so the harmonics of a square, sawtooth, or other complex waveform as from the Fourier Synthesizer, can be analyzed.
