Sallen–Key topology filters are second-order active filters whose simplicity makes them a popular choice for general filtering applications. In this Demonstration, Bode plots are produced for single-stage low-pass and high-pass filters or a combination of these filters, up to 10 stages each.

For higher-order filters, the transfer funtions 1 and 2 are raised to the order of the filter. For a high-pass (low-pass) filter, set the order of the low-pass (high-pass) filter to "0".
