First find the required order of the maximally flat filter to satisfy the insertion loss specification at 3 GHz. We have that |ω/ωc| − 1 = 0.5; from Figure 8.26 we see that N = 5 will be sufficient.

Then Table 8.3 gives the prototype element values as

g1 = 0.618,

g2 = 1.618,

g3 = 2.000,

g4 = 1.618,

g5 = 0.618.

Using following equations we get

Lk=R0Lkwc

Ck=CkR0wc

Values of LC Component:

C1=0.984pF

L2=6.438nH

C3=3.183pF

L4=6.438nH

C5=0.984pF

Final Filter Representation:
