MF10
Universal Monolithic Dual Switched Capacitor Filter
General Description
The MF10 consists of 2 independent and extremely easy to
use, general purpose CMOS active filter building blocks.
Each block, together with an external clock and 3 to 4
resistors, can produce various 2nd order functions. Each
building block has 3 output pins. One of the outputs can be
configured to perform either an allpass, highpass or a notch
function; the remaining 2 output pins perform lowpass and
bandpass functions. The center frequency of the lowpass
and bandpass 2nd order functions can be either directly
dependent on the clock frequency, or they can depend on
both clock frequency and external resistor ratios. The center
frequency of the notch and allpass functions is directly dependent on the clock frequency, while the highpass center
frequency depends on both resistor ratio and clock. Up to 4th
order functions can be performed by cascading the two 2nd
order building blocks of the MF10; higher than 4th order
functions can be obtained by cascading MF10 packages.
Any of the classical filter configurations (such as Butterworth, Bessel, Cauer and Chebyshev) can be formed.
For pin-compatible device with improved performance refer
to LMF100 datasheet.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. DC and AC electrical specifications do not apply when operating
the device beyond its specified operating conditions.
Note 2: When the input voltage (VIN) at any pin exceeds the power supply rails (VIN < V− or VIN > V+) the absolute value of current at that pin should be limited
to 5 mA or less. The 20 mA package input current limits the number of pins that can exceed the power supply boundaries with a 5 mA current limit to four.
Note 3: The maximum power dissipation must be derated at elevated temperatures and is dictated by TJMAX, θJA, and the ambient temperature, TA. The maximum
allowable power dissipation at any temperature is PD = (TJMAX − TA)/θJA or the number given in the Absolute Maximum Ratings, whichever is lower. For this device,
TJMAX = 125˚C, and the typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the MF10ACN/CCN when board mounted is 55˚C/W. For the MF10AJ/CCJ, this number
increases to 95˚C/W and for the MF10ACWM/CCWM this number is 66˚C/W.
Note 4: The accuracy of the Q value is a function of the center frequency (fO). This is illustrated in the curves under the heading “Typical Performance
Characteristics”.
Note 5: VOS1, VOS2, and VOS3 refer to the internal offsets as discussed in the Applications Information Section 3.4.
Note 6: For ± 5V supplies the dynamic range is referenced to 2.82V rms (4V peak) where the wideband noise over a 20 kHz bandwidth is typically 200 µV rms for
the MF10 with a 50:1 CLK ratio and 280 µV rms for the MF10 with a 100:1 CLK ratio.
Note 7: The short circuit source current is measured by forcing the output that is being tested to its maximum positive voltage swing and then shorting that output
to the negative supply. The short circuit sink current is measured by forcing the output that is being tested to its maximum negative voltage swing and then shorting
that output to the positive supply. These are the worst case conditions.
Note 8: Typicals are at 25˚C and represent most likely parametric norm.
Note 9: Tested limits are guaranteed to National’s AOQL (Average Outgoing Quality Level).
Note 10: Design limits are guaranteed but not 100% tested. These limits are not used to calculate outgoing quality levels.
Note 11: Human body model, 100 pF discharged through a 1.5 kΩ resistor.

Pin Descriptions
LP(1,20), BP(2,19), N/AP/HP(3,18)
The second order lowpass, bandpass
and notch/allpass/highpass outputs.
These outputs can typically sink 1.5 mA
and source 3 mA. Each output typically
swings to within 1V of each supply.
INV(4,17)
The inverting input of the summing
op-amp of each filter. These are high
impedance inputs, but the non-inverting
input is internally tied to AGND, making
INVA and INVB behave like summing
junctions (low impedance, current
inputs).
S1(5,16)
S1 is a signal input pin used in the
allpass filter configurations (see modes
4 and 5). The pin should be driven with
a source impedance of less than 1 kΩ.
If S1 is not driven with a signal it should
be tied to AGND (mid-supply).
SA/B(6)
This pin activates a switch that connects one of the inputs of each filter’s
second summer to either AGND (SA/B
tied to V−) or to the lowpass (LP) output
(SA/B tied to V+). This offers the flexibility needed for configuring the filter in its
various modes of operation.
VA+(7),VD+(8)
Analog positive supply and digital positive supply. These pins are internally
connected through the IC substrate and
therefore VA+ and VD+ should be derived from the same power supply
source. They have been brought out
separately so they can be bypassed by
separate capacitors, if desired. They
can be externally tied together and bypassed by a single capacitor.
VA−(14), VD−(13)
Analog and digital negative supplies.
The same comments as for VA+ and
VD+ apply here.
LSh(9)
Level shift pin; it accommodates various clock levels with dual or single supply operation. With dual ± 5V supplies,
the MF10 can be driven with CMOS
clock levels ( ± 5V) and the LSh pin
should be tied to the system ground. If
the same supplies as above are used
CLKA(10),
50/100/CL(12)
AGND(15)
but only TTL clock levels, derived from
0V to +5V supply, are available, the
LSh pin should be tied to the system
ground. For single supply operation (0V
and +10V) the VA−, VD−pins should be
connected to the system ground, the
AGND pin should be biased at +5V and
the LSh pin should also be tied to the
system ground for TTL clock levels.
LSh should be biased at +5V for CMOS
clock levels in 10V single-supply
applications.
CLKB(11)
Clock inputs for each switched capacitor filter building block. They should
both be of the same level (TTL or
CMOS). The level shift (LSh) pin description discusses how to accommodate their levels. The duty cycle of the
clock should be close to 50% especially
when clock frequencies above 200 kHz
are used. This allows the maximum
time for the internal op-amps to settle,
which yields optimum filter operation.
By tying this pin high a 50:1
clock-to-filter-center-frequency ratio is
obtained. Tying this pin at mid-supplies
(i.e. analog ground with dual supplies)
allows the filter to operate at a 100:1
clock-to-center-frequency ratio. When
the pin is tied low (i.e., negative supply
with dual supplies), a simple current
limiting circuit is triggered to limit the
overall supply current down to about
2.5 mA. The filtering action is then
aborted.
This is the analog ground pin. This pin
should be connected to the system
ground for dual supply operation or biased to mid-supply for single supply
operation. For a further discussion of
mid-supply biasing techniques see the
Applications Information (Section 3.2).
For optimum filter performance a
“clean” ground must be provided.

1). The value of Q determines the shape of the 2nd order
filter responses as shown in Figure 6.
QZ: the quality factor of the second order complex zero pair,
if any. QZ is related to the allpass characteristic, which is
written:
fCLK: the frequency of the external clock signal applied to pin
10 or 11.
fO: center frequency of the second order function complex
pole pair. fO is measured at the bandpass outputs of the
MF10, and is the frequency of maximum bandpass gain.

fnotch: the frequency of minimum (ideally zero) gain at the
notch outputs.
fz: the center frequency of the second order complex zero
pair, if any. If fz is different from fO and if QZ is high, it can be
observed as the frequency of a notch at the allpass output.

2.0 Modes of Operation
The MF10 is a switched capacitor (sampled data) filter. To
fully describe its transfer functions, a time domain approach
is appropriate. Since this is cumbersome, and since the
MF10 closely approximates continuous filters, the following
discussion is based on the well known frequency domain.
Each MF10 can produce a full 2nd order function. See Table
1 for a summary of the characteristics of the various modes.
MODE 1: Notch 1, Bandpass, Lowpass Outputs:
fnotch = fO (See Figure 7)
= quality factor of the complex pole pair
BW = the −3 dB bandwidth of the bandpass output.
Circuit dynamics:
fO = center frequency of the complex pole pair
MODE 1a: Non-Inverting BP, LP (See Figure 8)
fnotch = center frequency of the imaginary zero pair = fO.
Note: VIN should be driven from a low impedance ( < 1 kΩ) source.

MF10
3.0 Applications Information
The MF10 is a general-purpose dual second-order state
variable filter whose center frequency is proportional to the
frequency of the square wave applied to the clock input
(fCLK). By connecting pin 12 to the appropriate DC voltage,
the filter center frequency fO can be made equal to either
fCLK/100 or fCLK/50. fO can be very accurately set (within
± 6%) by using a crystal clock oscillator, or can be easily
varied over a wide frequency range by adjusting the clock
frequency. If desired, the fCLK/fO ratio can be altered by
external resistors as in Figures 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15. The
filter Q and gain are determined by external resistors.
All of the five second-order filter types can be built using
either section of the MF10. These are illustrated in Figure 1
through Figure 5 along with their transfer functions and some
related equations. Figure 6 shows the effect of Q on the
shapes of these curves. When filter orders greater than two
are desired, two or more MF10 sections can be cascaded.
externally. From Table 1, we see that Mode 3 can be used to
produce a low-pass filter with resistor-adjustable center frequency.
In most filter designs involving multiple second-order stages,
it is best to place the stages with lower Q values ahead of
stages with higher Q, especially when the higher Q is greater
than 0.707. This is due to the higher relative gain at the
center frequency of a higher-Q stage. Placing a stage with
lower Q ahead of a higher-Q stage will provide some attenuation at the center frequency and thus help avoid clipping of
signals near this frequency. For this example, stage A has
the lower Q (0.785) so it will be placed ahead of the other
stage.
For the first section, we begin the design by choosing a
convenient value for the input resistance: R1A = 20k. The
absolute value of the passband gain HOLPA is made equal to
1 by choosing R4A such that: R4A = −HOLPAR1A = R1A = 20k.
If the 50/100/CL pin is connected to mid-supply for nominal
100:1 clock-to-center-frequency ratio, we find R2A by:
3.1 DESIGN EXAMPLE
In order to design a second-order filter section using the
MF10, we must define the necessary values of three parameters: f0, the filter section’s center frequency; H0, the passband gain; and the filter’s Q. These are determined by the
characteristics required of the filter being designed.
As an example, let’s assume that a system requires a
fourth-order Chebyshev low-pass filter with 1 dB ripple, unity
gain at DC, and 1000 Hz cutoff frequency. As the system
order is four, it is realizable using both second-order sections
of an MF10. Many filter design texts include tables that list
the characteristics (fO and Q) of each of the second-order
filter sections needed to synthesize a given higher-order
filter. For the Chebyshev filter defined above, such a table
yields the following characteristics:
f0A = 529 Hz QA = 0.785
f0B = 993 Hz QB = 3.559
The resistors for the second section are found in a similar
fashion:
For unity gain at DC, we also specify:
H0A = 1
H0B = 1
The desired clock-to-cutoff-frequency ratio for the overall
filter of this example is 100 and a 100 kHz clock signal is
available. Note that the required center frequencies for the
two second-order sections will not be obtainable with
clock-to-center-frequency ratios of 50 or 100. It will be necessary to adjust

3.2 SINGLE SUPPLY OPERATION
The MF10 can also operate with a single-ended power supply. Figure 17 shows the example filter with a single-ended
power supply. VA+ and VD+ are again connected to the
positive power supply (8V to 14V), and VA− and VD− are
connected to ground. The AGND pin must be tied to V+/2 for
single supply operation. This half-supply point should be
very “clean”, as any noise appearing on it will be treated as
an input to the filter. It can be derived from the supply voltage
with a pair of resistors and a bypass capacitor (Figure 18a),
or a low-impedance half-supply voltage can be made using a
three-terminal voltage regulator or an operational amplifier
(Figure 18b and Figure 18c). The passive resistor divider
with a bypass capacitor is sufficient for many applications,
provided that the time constant is long enough to reject any
power supply noise. It is also important that the half-supply
reference present a low impedance to the clock frequency,
so at very low clock frequencies the regulator or op-amp
approaches may be preferable because they will require
smaller capacitors to filter the clock frequency. The main
power supply voltage should be clean (preferably regulated)
and bypassed with 0.1 µF.
Vos2 = −150 mV @ 50:1:
−300 mV @ 100:1
Vos3 = −70 mV @ 50:1:
−140 mV @ 100:1
When SA/B is tied to V−, Vos2 will approximately halve. The
DC offset at the BP output is equal to the input offset of the
lowpass integrator (Vos3). The offsets at the other outputs
depend on the mode of operation and the resistor ratios, as
described in the following expressions.
3.3 DYNAMIC CONSIDERATIONS
The maximum signal handling capability of the MF10, like
that of any active filter, is limited by the power supply voltages used. The amplifiers in the MF10 are able to swing to
within about 1V of the supplies, so the input signals must be
kept small enough that none of the outputs will exceed these
limits. If the MF10 is operating on ± 5V, for example, the
outputs will clip at about 8 Vp–p. The maximum input voltage
multiplied by the filter gain should therefore be less than
8 Vp–p.
Note that if the filter Q is high, the gain at the lowpass or
highpass outputs will be much greater than the nominal filter
gain (Figure 6). As an example, a lowpass filter with a Q of
10 will have a 20 dB peak in its amplitude response at fO. If
the nominal gain of the filter HOLP is equal to 1, the gain at fO
will be 10. The maximum input signal at fO must therefore be
less than 800 mVp–p when the circuit is operated on ± 5V
supplies.
Also note that one output can have a reasonable small
voltage on it while another is saturated. This is most likely for
a circuit such as the notch in Mode 1 (Figure 7). The notch
output will be very small at fO, so it might appear safe to
apply a large signal to the input. However, the bandpass will
have its maximum gain at fO and can clip if overdriven. If one
output clips, the performance at the other outputs will be
degraded, so avoid overdriving any filter section, even ones
whose outputs are not being directly used. Accompanying
Figure 7 through Figure 15 are equations labeled “circuit
dynamics”, which relate the Q and the gains at the various
outputs. These should be consulted to determine peak circuit
gains and maximum allowable signals for a given application.
3.4 OFFSET VOLTAGE
The MF10’s switched capacitor integrators have a higher
equivalent input offset voltage than would be found in a
typical continuous-time active filter integrator. Figure 19
shows an equivalent circuit of the MF10 from which the
output DC offsets can be calculated. Typical values for these
offsets with SA/B tied to V+ are:

FIGURE 19. MF10 Offset Voltage Sources
01039931
FIGURE 20. Method for Trimming VOS
For most applications, the outputs are AC coupled and DC
offsets are not bothersome unless large signals are applied
www.national.com
to the filter input. However, larger offset voltages will cause
clipping to occur at lower AC signal levels, and clipping at
24
can be reduced or eliminated by limiting the input signal
spectrum to less than fs/2. This may in some cases require
the use of a bandwidth-limiting filter ahead of the MF10 to
limit the input spectrum. However, since the clock frequency
is much higher than the center frequency, this will often not
be necessary.
(Continued)
any of the outputs will cause gain nonlinearities and will
change fO and Q. When operating in Mode 3, offsets can
become excessively large if R2 and R4 are used to make
fCLK/fO significantly higher than the nominal value, especially
if Q is also high. An extreme example is a bandpass filter
having unity gain, a Q of 20, and fCLK/fO = 250 with pin 12
tied to ground (100:1 nominal). R4/R2 will therefore be equal
to 6.25 and the offset voltage at the lowpass output will be
about +1V. Where necessary, the offset voltage can be
adjusted by using the circuit of Figure 20. This allows adjustment of VOS1, which will have varying effects on the different
outputs as described in the above equations. Some outputs
cannot be adjusted this way in some modes, however
(VOS(BP) in modes 1a and 3, for example).
Another characteristic of sampled-data circuits is that the
output signal changes amplitude once every sampling period, resulting in “steps” in the output voltage which occur at
the clock rate (Figure 21). If necessary, these can be
“smoothed” with a simple R–C low-pass filter at the MF10
output.
The ratio of fCLK to fC (normally either 50:1 or 100:1) will also
affect performance. A ratio of 100:1 will reduce any aliasing
problems and is usually recommended for wideband input
signals. In noise sensitive applications, however, a ratio of
50:1 may be better as it will result in 3 dB lower output noise.
The 50:1 ratio also results in lower DC offset voltages, as
discussed in Section 3.4.
The accuracy of the fCLK/fO ratio is dependent on the value
of Q. This is illustrated in the curves under the heading
“Typical Performance Characteristics”. As Q is changed, the
true value of the ratio changes as well. Unless the Q is low,
the error in fCLK/fO will be small. If the error is too large for a
specific application, use a mode that allows adjustment of
the ratio with external resistors.
It should also be noted that the product of Q and fOshould be
limited to 300 kHz when fO < 5 kHz, and to 200 kHz for fO >
5 kHz.
3.5 SAMPLED DATA SYSTEM CONSIDERATIONS
The MF10 is a sampled data filter, and as such, differs in
many ways from conventional continuous-time filters. An
important characteristic of sampled-data systems is their
effect on signals at frequencies greater than one-half the
sampling frequency. (The MF10’s sampling frequency is the
same as its clock frequency.) If a signal with a frequency
greater than one-half the sampling frequency is applied to
the input of a sampled data system, it will be “reflected” to a
frequency less than one-half the sampling frequency. Thus,
an input signal whose frequency is fs/2 + 100 Hz will cause
the system to respond as though the input frequency was
fs/2 − 100 Hz. This phenomenon is known as “aliasing”, and
