62. What is the order of a low-pass Butterworth filter that has a -3dB bandwidth of 500Hz and an attenuation of 40dB at 1000Hz?

A. 4
B. 5
C. 6
D. 7

Answer: D

Given Ωc=1000π and Ωs=2000π

For an attenuation of 40dB, δ2=0.01.

We know that

N=\(\frac{log⁡[(\frac{1}{δ_2^2})-1]}{2log⁡[\frac{Ω_s}{Ω_s}]}\)

Thus by substituting the corresponding values in the above equation, we get N=6.64
