Hi JB your spec might give filter designers the shivers !! There are a
couple of other parameters that would help, though they might seem
unimportant. How fast do you want it to roll-off below 1kHz ...like how far
down should 500Hz be. As a rough guide I think you get 6db/octave per pole
on a simple filter and this determines how many sections you need to meet
your requirement. Also if it is designed at 600 ohms it may have strange
"wind-it-youself" inductor and capacitor values. It is often easier to
design for a given inductor and match it at input and output with capacitor
taps or transformers( there are now several experts squirming I am sure )
You also, in theory, need to quote the acceptable ripple allowed in the pass
band, this is also tied in with the ultimate attenuation in the stop-band.
You have to play the percentages.
I am lazy and do it by cut and try on a network analysis program, sometimes
getting the values from the disc with Wes Haywards book "Intro to RF
Design". That way I get useable filters out of standard Toko coils and a
little paralleling of the caps. Well I call it the "amateur approach" !!
