Differential 1st Order Lowpass Filter
Maximum –3dB frequency (f3dB) 2MHz
Stopband attenuation: –6dB at 2 f3dB and 14dB at 5 f3dB
Example: The specied –3dB frequency is 1MHz Gain = 4
1. Using f3dB = 1000kHz, C11abs = 400pF
2. Nearest standard 5% value to 400pF is 390pF and C11
= C12 = 390pF
3. Using f3dB = 1000kHz, C11 = 390pF and Gain = 4, R21
= R22 = 412
Ω and R11 = R12 = 102Ω (nearest 1%
value)
Differential 2nd Order Butterworth Lowpass Filter
Maximum –3dB frequency (f3dB) 1MHz
Stopband attenuation: –12dB at 2 f3dB and –28dB at 5 f3dB
