Texas Instruments UAF42 Universal Active Filter Datasheet
The UAF42 is a universal active filter that can be configured for low‑pass, high‑pass, band‑pass, and band‑reject applications. It uses a classic state‑variable architecture with on‑chip 1000 pF capacitors trimmed to ±0.5 %.
The datasheet includes absolute maximum ratings, electrical characteristics, ordering and packaging information, and design equations for filter implementation. It also describes a DOS‑compatible design program that assists in calculating component values for various filter types.
