The Chebychev Filter Calculator. Nice to bookmark.
« on: July 10, 2025, 1949 UTC »
I came across this bookmark, after forgetting about it for the last few years, and it does get you into the ballpark in calculating L & C values for a Chebychev Filter.  http://www.calculatoredge.com/electronics/ch%20pi%20low%20pass.htm  Get those harmonics and spurs under control.
The best two statements of advice that I've ever gotten are from my brother-in-law in the early 1990's. 1st one, when I bought a used '89 Olds Cutless, my bro-in-law said, "Congratulations!!! You've just bought a deficit!". The other, was on a work environment, " No matter where you go, it's going to be f***'ed -up!". No truer words have been spoken.

'It's better to give than receive' so why Rx when you can Tx!

Better?

Actually, yes. I prefer the one you posted. More topology choices and variable termination impedances wins me over. I see it used a lot in professional areas too.
I don't STRETCH the truth.
