  1. Sallen and Key Second order RC low pass filter (Link)
  1. This filter adds positive feedback to a C1 of the previous circuit via a non-inverting OPAMP. This allows the filter to have any damping ratio.  The Butterworth condition for a second-order filter is . The gain at the cutoff frequency will be -3dB.
