RC Network

An RC network is an electrical network which is constructed using a resistor and capacitor in parallel, and acts as an effective high-pass filter. Its cutoff frequency is calculated using the following:

1/(2*π*R*C)

Where:
π is about 3.1415926, although 3.14 is fine,
C is the capacitor value, and
R is the source impedance.
