7.1.2 Low-Pass Filter Configurations

When receiving low-level signals, limiting the bandwidth of the incoming signals into the system is often required. Figure 7-2 shows how the simplest way to accomplish this limiting is to place an RC filter at the noninverting pin of the amplifier.

Equation 1. V O U T V I N = 1 + R F R G × 1 1 + s R 1 C 1

If more attenuation at higher frequencies is required, a multiple-pole filter is required. Figure 7-3 shows a common implementation of a second-order filter called a Sallen-Key filter. When designing this type of filter, choose an amplifier with a bandwidth that is approximately an order of magnitude larger than the desired filter bandwidth. See Active Low-pass Filter Design for more detailed active-filter design information.

Assuming R1 = R2 = R and C1 = C2 = C, use Equation 2 to set the bandwidth of the filter.

Equation 2. f 3 d B = 1 2 π R C

The Q-factor of a filter controls the amount of peaking of the small-signal frequency response and the settling time of the pulse response. Set Q to 0.707 to provide a Butterworth response with a maximally-flat pass-band. Choose the ratio of RF and RG to obtain the desired Q value as shown in Equation 3.

Equation 3. R F R G = 2 - 1 Q
