DESCRIPTION
The LTC
廬
1562 is a low noise, low distortion continuous-time
filter with rail-to-rail inputs and outputs, optimized for a
center frequency (f
O
) of 10kHz to 150kHz. Unlike most
monolithic filters, no clock is needed. Four independent 2nd
order filter blocks can be cascaded in any combination, such
as one 8th order or two 4th order filters. Each block鈥檚
response is programmed with three external resistors for
center frequency, Q and gain, using simple design formulas.
Each 2nd order block provides lowpass and bandpass out-
puts. Highpass response is available if an external capacitor
replaces one of the resistors. Allpass, notch and elliptic
responses can also be realized.
The LTC1562 is designed for applications where dynamic
range is important. For example, by cascading 2nd order
sections in pairs, the user can configure the IC as a dual 4th
order Butterworth lowpass filter with 94dB signal-to-noise
ratio from a single 5V power supply. Low level signals can
exploit the built-in gain capability of the LTC1562. Varying the
gain of a section can achieve a dynamic range as high as
118dB with a
鹵5V
supply.
Other cutoff frequency ranges can be provided upon request.
