cLow more, the stabilization time that its rank respond more is also long more, yet, because the mode of analog filter, 3dB frequency f are adopted in the realization of high pass filter more
cLow more, realize that cost is high more, so in the real system, high pass filter 3dB frequency f
cGenerally about 10kHz.
