Frequency Bandwidth Calculator

Find bandwidth from center frequency and quality factor.

Bandwidth (Hz) 2,000

Formula: BW = f₀ ÷ Q

Step-by-step with your numbers:

1. Values used:

2. Center frequency = 100,000 Hz

3. Quality factor = 50

5. Bandwidth = Center frequency / Quality factor = 100,000 / 50 = 2,000Hz

Did we solve your problem today?

Bandwidth is the frequency range a resonant circuit or filter passes around its center.

The math behind it

BW = f₀ ÷ Q. A higher Q gives a narrower, more selective bandwidth.

100 kHz with Q 50 → 2 kHz bandwidth.

Narrow or wide bandwidth?

Narrow for selectivity (tuning), wide for carrying more information.
