    Abstract: A low-pass filter having a notch frequency due to a resonance between a mutual inductance of inductive elements and a capacitance. An exemplary low-pass filter generally includes a first inductive element having a first terminal and a second terminal, the first terminal being coupled to the input port, and a second inductive element having a first terminal and a second terminal, the first terminal of the second inductive element being coupled to the second terminal of the first inductive element and the second terminal of the second inductive element being coupled to the output port. The filter also includes a shunt capacitive element coupled to the second terminal of the first inductive element, wherein a mutual inductance between the first inductive element and the second inductive element and a capacitance of the shunt capacitive element are configured to have a resonance providing a notch frequency for the low-pass filter.
