Regarding DC removal filter. - neelufar.2005 - 07:17 31-07-07
Hello, Currently I am searching about DC removal filter, I could understand that we can use an FIR high pass filter to remove the DC. Can any one please help me to get a document which gives the specifications required to design a FIR high pass for DC removal. It is very urgent. Please help me in this regard. Thanks, Neelufar.

The FIR with impulse response h = [1 -1] removes DC.

An FIR will be costly because the number of taps is proportional to the lowest significant period and the sharpness of the transition. Frequencies close to DC need lots of taps. Only a need for strict phase linearity down to near the cutoff justify an FIR. Any high-pass filter removes DC. The simplest is IIR.

It is usually a good idea to remove most of the DC in the analogue domain, so it doesn't eat up the range of the ADC. However, a final digital DC elimination is typically needed, too. Steve

It was a provocation aimed at the OP to extract more information about the filter requirements. BTW, what makes you sure?

Not if there's any offset in the converter. At least some bipolar converters are offset unipolar devices with the MSB inverted to convert offset binary to two's complement. If the offset isn't perfect, that's equivalent to DC injection. There other way for the fault to arise in the converter. After all, the signal is only digital after the converter has digitized it. The converter's front end is analog. Jerry -- Engineering is the art of making what you want from things you can get. ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

As far as I know, there's no low-computation linear-phase way to remove (attenuate) DC. If you have some sort of "neat" way to do so, we'd sure like to hear more about your method. Thanks, [-Rick-]
