In an RC low-pass filter, the output voltage is taken across the resistor and the output lags the input voltage.
In an RL low-pass filter, the output voltage is taken across the inductor and the output lags the input.
A band-stop filter passes frequencies between its lower and upper critical frequencies and rejects all others.
A band-pass filter rejects all frequencies within a band between a lower and an upper critical frequency and passes all others.
The bandwidth of a resonant filter is determined by the quality factor (Q) of the circuit and the resonant frequency.
The output voltage is 63.3% of its maximum at the critical frequencies.
In an RC high-pass filter, the output is taken across the resistor and the output leads the input.
