PRODUCTION DATA.
The digital filter receives the modulator output and decimates the data stream. By adjusting the amount of filtering, tradeoffs can be made between resolution and data rate: filter more for higher resolution, filter less for higher data rate.
The digital filter is comprised of three cascaded filter stages: a variable-decimation, fifth-order sinc filter; a fixed-decimation FIR, low-pass filter (LPF) with selectable phase; and a programmable, first-order, high-pass filter (HPF), as shown in Figure 36.
The output can be taken from one of the three filter blocks, as Figure 36 shows. To implement the digital filter completely off-chip, select the filter bypass setting (modulator output). For partial filtering by the ADS1282-SP, select the sinc filter output. For complete on-chip filtering, activate both the sinc and FIR stages. The HPF can then be included to remove DC and low frequencies from the data. Table 4 shows the filter options.
