Introduction:

A phase-shifting circuit is often employed to correct an undesirable phase shift already


present in a circuit or to produce special desired effects. An RC circuit is suitable for this
purpose because its capacitor causes the circuit current to lead the applied voltage. Two
commonly used RC circuits are (RL circuits or any reactive circuits could also serve the
same purpose.) In the circuit current I leads the applied voltage by some phase angle
where depending on the values of R and C. If then the total impedance is and the phase
shift is given by

Working:

Intuitively, the phase shifter uses a first-order low-pass filter to create a phase shift and
negative feedback to compensate for non-unity gain. The result is an all-pass filter that
has input-to-output quadrature (i.e., quarter-wavelength, or 90, phase shift) at =
1/(RC) (i.e., f = 1/(2RC)).
1. Node A forms a low-pass filter (LPF) with transfer function1

HLPF(s) =

1
sRC+1

and so VA(s) = Vin(s)HLPF(s).

2. Because the op. amp. (OA) has negative feedback, VB(s) _ VA(s) (i.e., node B
matches node A ).So the current into node B is

3. The current into node A does not go into the OA, and so it goes across the feedback
resistor and sets up the output. The output at node C must then be

So the transfer function of the system is H(s) , (1 sRC)/(1 + sRC). For any ,
|H(j)| = 1 and H(j) = arctan(RC) arctan(RC) = 2 arctan(RC),
which is double the LPF phase shift HLPF(j) = arctan(RC). Note that
0 if = 0 (i.e., open capacitor follower with no shift at DC),
H(j)

/2 = 90 if = 1 /RC (i.e., quadrature 90 shift at LPF corner),


= 180 as (i.e., short capacitor inverting amplifier at AC).

This circuit is an all-pass filter; it provides frequency-dependent phase shift with unity gain.

phase then varies reversely.
