GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADRF6510 is a matched pair of fully differential low noise
and low distortion programmable filters and variable gain amplifiers (VGAs). Each channel is capable of rejecting large out-ofband interferers while reliably boosting the wanted signal, thus
reducing the bandwidth and resolution requirements on the
analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The excellent matching
between channels and their high spurious-free dynamic range
over all gain and bandwidth settings makes the ADRF6510
ideal for quadrature-based (IQ) communication systems with
dense constellations, multiple carriers, and nearby interferers.
The filters provide a six-pole Butterworth response with 0.5 dB
corner frequencies programmable through the SPI port from
1 MHz to 30 MHz in 1 MHz steps. The preamplifier that precedes
the filters offers a pin-programmable option of either 6 dB or
12 dB of gain. The preamplifier sets a differential input impedance of 400 Ω and has a common-mode voltage that defaults
to 2.1 V but can be driven from 1.5 V to 2.5 V.
The variable gain amplifiers that follow the filters provide 50 dB
of continuous gain control with a slope of 30 mV/dB. The output
buffers provide a differential output impedance of 20 Ω that is
capable of driving 1.5 V p-p into 1 kΩ loads. The output commonmode voltage defaults to VPS/2, but it can be programmed via the
VOCM pin. The built-in dc offset correction loop can be disabled
if dc-coupled operation is desired. The high-pass corner frequency
is defined by external capacitors on the OFS1 and OFS2 pins.
The ADRF6510 operates from a 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply and
consumes a maximum supply current of 258 mA when programmed to the highest bandwidth setting. When disabled, it
consumes 2 mA. The ADRF6510 is fabricated in an advanced
silicon-germanium BiCMOS process and is available in a
32-lead, exposed paddle LFCSP. Performance is specified over
the −40°C to +85°C temperature range.

THEORY OF OPERATION
band rejection, ripple, and group delay. The 0.5 dB bandwidth is
programmed from 1 MHz to 30 MHz in 1 MHz steps via the serial
programming interface (SPI) as described in the Programming
the Filters section.
The ADRF6510 consists of a matched pair of buffered, programmable filters followed by variable gain amplifiers and output
ADC drivers. The block diagram of a single channel is shown
in Figure 42. The programmability of the bandwidth and of the
pre- and post-filtering gain offers great flexibility when coping
with signals of varying levels in the presence of noise and large,
undesired signals nearby. The entire differential signal chain is
dc-coupled with flexible interfaces at the input and output. The
bandwidth and gain setting controls for the two channels are
shared, ensuring close matching of their magnitude and phase
responses. The ADRF6510 can be fully disabled through the
ENBL pin.

Filtering and amplification are fundamental operations in any
signal processing system. Filtering is necessary to select the
intended signal while rejecting out-of-band noise and interferers.
Amplification increases the level of the desired signal to overcome
noise added by the system. When used together, filtering and
amplification can extract a low level signal of interest in the
presence of noise and out-of-band interferers. Such analog
signal processing alleviates the requirements on the analog,
mixed signal, and digital components that follow.

The input buffers provide a convenient interface to the sensitive

of 400 Ω and sit at a nominal common-mode voltage of VPS/2.
The inputs can be dc-coupled or ac-coupled. If using direct
dc-coupling, the common-mode voltage, VCM, can range from
1.5 V to 3 V. A current flows into or out of the input pins to
accommodate the difference in common-mode voltages. The

The integrated programmable filter is the key signal processing

The filters are designed so that the Butterworth prototype filter
shape and group delay responses vs. frequency are retained for
any bandwidth setting. Figure 43 and Figure 44 illustrate the
ideal six-pole Butterworth gain and group delay responses,
respectively. The group delay, τg, is defined as
ADRF6510
Data Sheet
The corner frequency of the filters is defined by RC products,
which can vary by ±30% in a typical process. Therefore, all the
parts are factory calibrated for corner frequency, resulting in
a residual ±10% corner frequency variation over the −40°C to
+85°C temperature range. Although absolute accuracy requires
calibration, the matching of RC products between the pair of
channels is better than 1% by observing careful design and
layout practices. Calibration and excellent matching ensure
that the magnitude and group delay responses of both channels
track together, a critical requirement for digital IQ-based
communication systems.
VARIABLE GAIN AMPLIFIERS (VGAs)
The VGAs are implemented using the Analog Devices, Inc.,
patented X-AMP® architecture, consisting of a tapped 50 dB
attenuator followed by a fixed-gain amplifier. The X-AMP architecture generates a linear-in-dB monotonic gain response with
low ripple. The gain is controlled through the high impedance
GAIN pin with an accurate slope of 30 mV/dB. The gain response
shown in Figure 45 shows the GAIN pin voltage range and the
absence of gain foldback at high VGAIN.

DC OFFSET COMPENSATION LOOP
In many signal processing applications, no information is
carried in the dc level. In fact, dc voltages and other low
frequency disturbances can often dominate the intended signal
and consume precious dynamic range in the analog path and
bits in the data converters. These dc voltages can be present
with the desired input signal or can be generated inside the
signal path by inherent dc offsets or other unintended signaldependent processes such as self-mixing or rectification.
Because the ADRF6510 is fully dc-coupled, it may be necessary
to remove these offsets to realize the maximum signal-to-noise
ratio (SNR). This can be achieved with ac-coupling capacitors
at the input and output pins, but that requires large values
because the impedances are fairly low, and high-pass corners
may need to be <10 Hz in some cases. To address the issue of dc
offsets, the ADRF6510 provides an offset correction loop that
nulls the output differential dc level as shown in Figure 46. If
the correction loop is not required, it can be disabled through
the OFDS pin.

OUTPUT BUFFERS/ADC DRIVERS
The low impedance (20 Ω) output buffers of the ADRF6510 are
designed to drive either ADC inputs or subsequent amplifier stages.
They are capable of delivering up to 4 V p-p composite two-tone
signals into 500 Ω differential loads with >60 dBc IM3. The
output common-mode voltage defaults to VPS/2, but it can be
adjusted from 1.5 V to 3.0 V without loss of drive capability by
presenting the VOCM pin with the desired common-mode
voltage. The high input impedance of VOCM allows the ADC
reference output to be connected directly. Even though the
signal path is fully dc-coupled and the dc offset compensation
loop can remove undesired dc offsets (see the DC Offset
Compensation Loop section), the output buffers can be accoupled to the next stage by properly selecting the coupling
capacitors according to the load impedance.
The offset control loop creates a high-pass corner, fHP, that
is superimposed on the normal Butterworth filter response.
Typically, fHP is many orders of magnitude lower than the lower
programmed filter bandwidth so that there is no interaction
between them. Setting fHP is accomplished with capacitors,
COFS, from the OFS1 and OFS2 pins to ground. Because the
correction loop works around the VGA section, fHP is also
dependent on the gain of the VGA. In general, the expression
for fHP is given by
fHP (Hz) = 1.2 × (Gain/COFS)
where:
Gain is expressed in linear terms, not in decibels (dB).
COFS is expressed in microfarads (μF).
Note that fHP increases in proportion to the gain. For this
reason, COFS should be chosen at the highest operating gain
to guarantee that fHP is always below the maximum limit
required by the system.

PROGRAMMING THE FILTERS
NOISE CHARACTERISTICS
The 0.5 dB corner frequencies for both filters are programmed
simultaneously through the SPI port. A 5-bit register stores the
codes for corner frequencies of 1 MHz through 30 MHz (see
Table 4). The SPI protocol not only allows frequency codes to
be written to the DATA pin but also allows the stored code to
be read back from the SDO pin.
The output noise behavior of the ADRF6510 depends on the gain
and bandwidth settings. Both the filter sections and the VGAs
contribute to the total noise at the output. The filter contributes
a noise spectral density profile that is flat at low frequencies, peaks
near the corner frequency, and then rolls off as the filter poles
roll off the gain. The magnitude of the noise spectral density,
expressed in nV/√Hz, varies inversely with the square root of
the bandwidth setting, resulting in a total integrated noise in
nV that is nearly constant with bandwidth setting.
The latch enable (LE) pin must first go to a Logic 0 for a read or
write cycle to begin. On the next rising edge of the clock (CLK),
a Logic 1 on the DATA pin initiates a write cycle, whereas a
Logic 0 on the DATA pin initiates a read cycle. In a write cycle,
the next five CLK rising edges latch the frequency code, LSB
first. When LE goes high, the write cycle is completed and the
frequency code is presented to the filter. In a read cycle, the next
five CLK falling edges present the stored frequency code, LSB
first. When LE goes high, the read cycle is completed. Detailed
timing diagrams are shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3.

Figure 47 and Figure 48 show the total output noise spectral
density vs. frequency for different bandwidth settings. At low
values of VGA gain, the noise at the output is the flat spectral
density contributed by the VGA because the filter noise is suppressed by the VGA attenuation. As the gain increases, more
of the filter noise appears at the output. Because the filter noise
increases at lower bandwidth settings, it overwhelms the VGA
noise floor. In either case, the noise density asymptotically
approaches the −130 dBV/√Hz limit set by the VGA at the
highest frequencies. For other values of VGA gain and bandwidth setting, the detailed shape of the noise spectral density
changes.

The X-AMP type VGAs used in the ADRF6510 contribute
a fixed noise spectral density to the output, independent of
the gain setting, of −130 dBV/√Hz, which is equivalent to
316 nV/√Hz. Although the VGA noise contribution to the
output is fixed, the gain of the VGA controls the relative
contribution of the filter noise.

To distinguish and quantify the distortion performance of the
input section, two different IP3 specifications are presented.
The first is called in-band IP3 and refers to a two-tone test
where the signals are inside the filter bandwidth. This is exactly
the same figure of merit familiar to communications engineers
in which the third-order intermodulation level, IM3, is
measured.

Note that the noise spectral density outside the filter bandwidth
is limited by the fixed VGA output noise. It may be necessary to
use an external, fixed-frequency, passive filter prior to an analogto-digital conversion to prevent noise aliasing from degrading
the signal-to-noise ratio. The higher the sampling rate relative
to the maximum ADRF6510 corner frequency setting to be used,
the lower the order of the external filter.
DISTORTION CHARACTERISTICS
The distortion performance of the ADRF6510 is similar to its
noise performance. The filters and the VGAs contribute to the
overall distortion and signal handling capabilities. Furthermore,
the front end must also cope with out-of-band signals that can be
larger than the in-band signals. These out-of-band signals are
filtered before reaching the VGA. It is important to understand
the signals presented to the ADRF6510 and to match these
signals with the input and output characteristics of the part.
When the gain is low, the distortion is typically limited by the
input section because the output is not driven to its maximum
capacity. When the gain is high, the distortion is likely limited
by the output section because the input is not driven to its
maximum capacity. An exception to this is when the input is
driven with a small desired signal in combination with a large
out-of-band signal. In this case, the out-of-band signal may
drive the input to distort. As long as the input is not overdriven,
the out-of-band signal is removed by the filter. A high VGA
gain is still needed to raise the small desired signal to a higher
level at the output. The overall distortion introduced by the part
depends on the input drive level, including the out-of-band
signals, and the desired output signal level.
As noted in the Input Buffers section, the input section can
handle a total signal level of 1 V p-p for a 6 dB preamplifier and
500 mV p-p for a 12 dB preamplifier with >50 dBc harmonic
distortion. This includes both in-band and out-of-band signals.
To quantify the effect of out-of-band signals, a new out-of-band
(OOB) IIP3 figure of merit is introduced. This test also involves
a two-tone stimulus; however, the two tones are placed out-ofband so that the lower IM3 product lands in the middle of the
filter pass band. At the output, only the IM3 product is visible
because the original two tones are filtered out. To calculate the
OOB IP3 at the input, the IM3 level is referred to the input by
the overall gain. The OOB IIP3 allows the user to predict the
impact of out-of-band blockers or interferers at an arbitrary
signal level on the in-band performance. The ratio of the
desired input signal level to the input-referred IM3 at a given
blocker level represents a signal-to-distortion limit imposed by
the out-of-band signals.
MAXIMIZING THE DYNAMIC RANGE
The role of the ADRF6510 is to increase the level of a variable
in-band signal while minimizing out-of-band signals. Ideally,
this is achieved without degrading the SNR of the incoming
signal or introducing distortion to the incoming signal.
The first goal is to maximize the output signal swing, which can
be defined by the ADC input range or the input signal capacity
of the next analog stage. For the complex waveforms often encountered in communication systems, the peak-to-average ratio, or
crest factor, must be considered when choosing the peak-to-peak
output. From the chosen output signal and the maximum gain
of the ADRF6510, the minimum input level can be defined.
Lower signal levels do not yield the maximum output and suffer
a greater degradation in SNR.
As the input signal level increases, the VGA gain is reduced from
its maximum gain point to maintain the desired fixed output
level. The output noise, initially dominated by the filter, follows
the gain reduction, yielding a progressively better SNR. At some
point, the VGA gain drops sufficiently that the constant VGA
noise becomes dominant, resulting in a constant SNR from that
point. From the perspective of SNR alone, the maximum input
level is reached when the VGA reaches its minimum gain.
Distortion must also be considered when maximizing the dynamic
range. At low and moderate signal levels, the output distortion
is constant and assumed to be adequate for the selected output
level. At some point, the input signal becomes large enough that
distortion at the input limits the system. The maximum tolerable
input signal depends on whether the input distortion becomes
unacceptably large or the minimum gain is reached.

ADRF6510
The most challenging scenario in terms of dynamic range is the
presence of a large out-of-band blocker accompanying a weaker
in-band wanted signal. In this case, the maximum input level is
dictated by the blocker and its inclination to cause distortion.
After filtering, the weak wanted signal must be amplified to the
desired output level, possibly requiring maximum gain. Both
the distortion limits associated with the blocker at the input and
the SNR limits created by the weaker signal and higher gains are
present simultaneously. Furthermore, not only does the blocker
scenario degrade the dynamic range but it also reduces the
range of input signals that can be handled because a larger part
of the gain range is used to simply extract the weak desired
signal from the stronger blocker.
KEY PARAMETERS FOR QUADRATURE-BASED
RECEIVERS
The majority of digital communication receivers makes use of
quadrature signaling, in which bits of information are encoded
onto pairs of baseband signals that then modulate in-phase (I)
and quadrature (Q) sinusoidal carriers. Both the baseband and
modulated signals appear quite complex in the time domain with
dramatic peaks and valleys. In a typical receiver, the goal is to
recover the pair of quadrature baseband signals in the presence
of noise and interfering signals after quadrature demodulation.
In the process of filtering out-of-band noise and unwanted interferers and restoring the levels of the wanted I and Q baseband
signals, it is critical to retain their gain and phase integrity over
the bandwidth.
The ADRF6510 delivers flat in-band gain and group delay,
consistent with a six-pole Butterworth prototype filter as
described in the Programmable Filters section. Furthermore,
careful design ensures excellent matching of these parameters
between the I and Q channels. Although absolute gain flatness
and group delay can be corrected with digital equalization,
mismatch introduces quadrature errors and intersymbol interference that degrade bit error rates in digital communication
systems.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
BASIC CONNECTIONS
ERROR VECTOR MAGNITUDE (EVM) PERFORMANCE
Figure 49 shows the basic connections for operating the
ADRF6510. A voltage from 4.75 V to 5.25 V should be applied
to the supply pins. Each supply pin should be decoupled with at
least one low inductance, surface-mount ceramic capacitor of
0.1 μF placed as close as possible to the device.
Error vector magnitude (EVM) is a measure used to quantify
the performance of a digital radio transmitter or receiver by
measuring the fidelity of the digital signal transmitted or
received. Various imperfections in the link, such as magnitude
and phase imbalance, noise, and distortion, cause the constellation points to deviate from their ideal locations.
The input buffers provide an interface to the sensitive filter
sections that follow. They set a differential input impedance
of 400 Ω and sit at a nominal common-mode voltage of VPS/2.
The inputs can be dc-coupled or ac-coupled. If using direct
dc-coupling, the common-mode voltage, VCM, can range from
1.5 V to 3 V.
In general, a receiver exhibits three distinct EVM limitations
vs. received input signal power. As signal power increases, the
distortion components increase.
•
The output buffers of the ADRF6510 are low impedance
(~20 Ω) designed to drive either ADC inputs or subsequent
amplifier stages. The output common-mode voltage defaults to
VPS/2 but can be adjusted from 1.5 V to 3.0 V without loss of
drive capability by presenting the VOCM pin with the desired
common-mode voltage. The high input impedance of VOCM
allows the ADC reference output to be connected directly.
At large enough signal levels, where the distortion components due to the harmonic nonlinearities in the device
dominate, EVM degrades as signal levels increase.
At medium signal levels, where the signal chain behaves
in a linear manner and the signal is well above any notable
noise contributions, EVM has a tendency to reach an
optimal level determined dominantly by either the
quadrature accuracy and I/Q gain match of the signal
chain or the precision of the test equipment.
As signal levels decrease, such that noise is a major contributor, EVM performance vs. the signal level exhibits
a decibel-for-decibel degradation with decreasing signal
levels. At these lower signal levels, where noise is the
dominant limitation, decibel EVM is directly proportional
to the SNR.
•
•
To enable the ADRF6510, the ENBL pin must be pulled high.
Taking ENBL low disables the device, reducing current consumption to approximately 2 mA at ambient temperature.

ADRF6510
EVM
The basic setup to test EVM for the ADRF6510 consisted of an
Agilent E4438C used as a RF signal source with an Agilent
InfiniiVision DSO7104B oscilloscope in conjunction with the
Agilent 89600 VSA software to sample the signal and compute
the EVM. The E4438C RF output drove the RF port of the
ADL5380 IQ demodulater, which in turn drove the baseband
differential inputs of the ADRF6510.
While low-pass filtering with the ADRF6510 to reject out-ofband undesired signals (blockers), more rejection of the
undesired signals may be required. If the filter bandwidth is set
to approximately the same as the signal bandwidth, the user
may trade some degradation of EVM for a gain in rejection of
the out-of-band undesired signals, by lowering the low-pass
filter bandwidth corner (for example, by 1 MHz).
The I and Q outputs of the ADRF6510 were taken differentially
into two AD8130 difference amplifiers to convert them into
single-ended signals. The single-ended signals were connected
to the input channels of the oscilloscope, which captured the
modulated waveforms.
Lowering the filter bandwidth to gain more rejection works
progressively better the lower the signal and filter bandwidths
are set to (see Figure 43). A 1 MHz change from 3 MHz filter
bandwidth to 2 MHz filter bandwidth yields about 20 dB more
rejection. Compare that to a 1 MHz change from 29 MHz filter
band-width to 28 MHz filter bandwidth, which will yield about
1 dB more in rejection.
An overall baseband EVM performance was measured on the
ADRF6510. A modulation setting of 4 QAM and, unless
otherwise noted, a 5 MHz symbol rate were used, with a pulse
shaping filter alpha of 0.35. The analog gain of the ADRF6510
was adjusted to maintain 1.5 V p-p into a 1 kΩ differential load
impedance. Figure 50 shows EVM vs. input power for three
different IF frequencies. The input power is the integrated input
power over the bandwidth of the modulated signal.
In Figure 50, the ADRF6510 shows excellent EVM of better
than −-35 dB over a 50 dB range at a 0Hz IF. The user can
chose to use a complex IF of 5 MHz to achieve even a better
EVM of at least −40 dB over a 50 dB range.
Figure 51 shows that degradation of EVM as signal bandwidth
(positive frequency only) is swept while keeping the filter
bandwidth set to 5 MHz. Three different COFS capacitor values
were used.

EFFECT OF FILTER BANDWIDTH ON EVM
Care should be taken when selecting the filter bandwidth. In
a digital transceiver, the modulated signal is filtered by a pulse
shaping filter (such as a root-raised cosine filter) at both the
transmit and receive ends to guard against intersymbol interference (ISI). If additional filtering of the modulated signal is
done, the signal must be within the pass band of the filter. When
the corner frequency of the ADRF6510 filter begins to encroach
on the modulated signal, ISI is introduced and degrades EVM,
which can lead to loss of signal lock.

EFFECT OF COFS ON EVM
When enabled, the dc offset compensation loop effectively
nulls any information below the high-pass corner set by the
COFS capacitor. However, loss of the low frequency information
of the modulated signal can degrade the EVM in some cases.
As the signal bandwidth becomes larger, the percentage of
information that is corrupted by the high-pass corner becomes
smaller. In such cases, it is important to select a COFS capacitor
large enough to minimize the high-pass corner frequency,
which prevents loss of information and degraded EVM.
Figure 53 shows the effect of COFS values at a single signal
bandwidth of 6.75 MHz = 1.35 × 5 MHz over input power.
Figure 54 shows that EVM can be improved by using a bigger
COFS value and/or increasing the signal bandwidth. Increasing
signal bandwidth will improve EVM to a point after which
the bandwidth limitations of the source, the part, and/or the
receiver will start to dominate and degrade EVM.

ANTI-ALIASING FILTER
The noise spectral density of the ADRF6510 outside the filter
bandwidth is limited by the fixed VGA output noise. It may be
necessary to use an external, fixed-frequency, passive filter prior
to an analog-to-digital conversion to prevent noise aliasing from
degrading the signal-to-noise ratio. As shown in Figure 47 and
Figure 48, the noise density at higher frequencies tends to be
flat, and any higher IF noise aliasing into the Nyquist zone has
minimal effects.
When designing an antialiasing filter, it is necessary to consider
the overall source and load impedance presented by the
ADRF6510 and the ADC input to design the filter network. The
differential baseband output impedance of the ADRF6510 is
20 Ω and is designed to drive a high impedance ADC input. It
may be desirable to terminate the ADC input to a lower impedance by using a terminating resistor, such as 500 Ω. The
terminating resistor helps to better define the input impedance
at the ADC input at the cost of a slightly reduced gain.
The order and type of filter network depend on the desired high
frequency rejection required, the pass-band ripple, and the
group delay. Filter design tables provide outlines for various
filter types and orders, illustrating the normalized inductor and
capacitor values for a 1 Hz cutoff frequency and 1 Ω load.

As an example, a second-order Butterworth, low-pass filter design
is shown in Figure 55 where the differential load impedance is
500 Ω and the source impedance is 50 Ω. The normalized series
inductor value for the 10-to-1, load-to-source impedance ratio
is 0.074 H, and the normalized shunt capacitor is 14.814 F. For
a 31 MHz cutoff frequency, the single-ended equivalent circuit
consists of a 0.191 μH series inductor followed by a 152 pF
shunt capacitor.

output stage, the EVM becomes much more erratic over the RF
input power level.

EVALUATION BOARD CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
Table 5 lists the components of the main section of the ADRF6510 evaluation board.
Table 5.
Components
C1, C2, C4, C5, C11, C12,
C15, C16, L1, L2
Function
Power supply and ground decoupling. Nominal supply decoupling
consists of a 0.1 μF capacitor to ground.
T1, T2, C3, C6, C7 to C10,
R15 to R18, R31, R32,
R43 to R58
Input interface. Input SMAs INM1_SE_P and INP2_SE_P are used to drive
the baluns in a single-ended fashion. The default configuration of the
evaluation board is for single-ended operation.
T1 and T2 are 8:1 impedance ratio baluns to transform a 50 Ω, single-ended
input into a 400 Ω balanced differential signal. R31, R32, and R47 to R50
are populated for appropriate balun interface. R51 to R58 are provided
for generic placement of matching components. C3 and C6 are balun
decoupling capacitors.
R15 to R18 and R43 to R46 can be populated with 0 Ω, and the balun
interfacing resistors can be removed to bypass T1 and T2 for differential
interfacing. C7 to C10 can be used for ac coupling with differential
interfacing.
Output interface. Output SMAs OPP1_SE_P and OPM2_SE_P are used to
drive the baluns in a single-ended fashion. The default configuration of
the evaluation board is for single-ended operation.
T3 and T4 are 8:1 impedance ratio baluns to transform a 50 Ω, single-ended
output into a 400 Ω balanced differential load. R19, R20, R35, R36, R41, and
R42 are populated for appropriate balun interface. R7 to R14 are provided
for generic placement of matching components. R7 to R10 are set to 300 Ω
to present a 1 kΩ load (with the balun used) at the DUT output.
C19 to C22 are used for ac coupling when differential outputs are used.
C23 and C24 are balun decoupling capacitors. R21 to R24 and R37 to R40
can be populated with 0 Ω, and the balun interfacing resistors can be
removed to bypass T3 and T4 for differential interfacing.
Enable interface. The ADRF6510 is powered up by applying a logic high
voltage to the ENBL pin (Jumper P2 is connected to VPS).
Serial interface control. The digital interface sets the corner frequency of
the device using the serial interface via the LE, CLK, DATA, and SDO pins.
T3, T4, C19 to C24,
R7 to R14, R19 to R24,
R35 to R42
P2
C27, C28, R1, R29, R30,
R33, R34
P4, C13, C14, R3
DC offset correction loop compensation. The dc offset correction loop is
enabled (low) with Jumper P4. When enabled, the capacitors are connected
to circuit common. The high-pass corner frequency is expressed as follows:
fHP (Hz) = 1.2 × ((Linear Gain)/COFS (μF)).
C18, R6
C17, R5
Output common-mode setpoint. The output common-mode voltage can
be set externally when applied to the VOCM pin. If the VOCM pin is left
open, the output common-mode voltage defaults to VPS/2.
Analog gain control. 0 V to 2 V, 30 mV/dB gain scaling.
P3, R4
Front-end 6 dB or 12 dB gain switch. Pull low for 6 dB; pull high for 12 dB.
