About this manual

This document presents two methods for simplifying the design of multiple order all-pole bandpass filters. The first method involves cascading non-identical 2nd order sections to create Butterworth and Chebyshev responses, while the second method uses identical 2nd order sections to achieve high Q factors with simpler hardware.

Frequently asked questions

What is the minimum number of resistors required per section for a switched capacitor filter operating in Mode 1?

Only three resistors are required per section when using Mode 1 operation.

What clock frequency accuracy ratio does a typical non-A part design with 1% tolerance resistors achieve?

The clock to center frequency ratio accuracy is better than 1%.

What gain error occurs at the signal frequency if lower cost LTC filters with +0.8% tolerance are used?

The gain error at 150Hz will be 1+ 1.8%.
