The above data is valid for clock frequencies up to 800kHz, 900kHz, 1MHz, for

Clock Feedthrough

Clock feedthrough is defined as the RMS value of the clock

frequency and its harmonics which are present at the

filter’s output pin. The clock feedthrough is tested with the

filter input grounded and it depends on the quality of the

PC board layout and power supply decoupling. Any para-

sitic switching transients during the rise and fall of the

incoming clock, are not part of the clock feedthrough

specifications; their amplitude strongly depends on scope

probing techniques as well as ground quality and power

feedthrough of the LTC1065 is 50

the clock feedthrough approaches 75

and 9 show a typical scope photo of the LTC1065 output

pin when the input pin is grounded. The filter cutoff

frequency was 1kHz, while scope bandwidth was chosen

to be 1MHz so that switching transients above the 100kHz

clock frequency would show.

Wideband Noise

The wideband noise data is used to determine the operat-

ing signal-to-noise ratio at a given distortion level. The

wideband noise (

of the clock frequency and excludes the clock feedthrough.

The LTC1065’s typical wideband noise is 80

9 shows the same scope photo as Figure 8 but with a more

sensitive vertical scale. The clock feedthrough is imbed-

ded in the filter’s wideband noise. The peak-to-peak wide-

band noise of the filter can be clearly seen; it is approxi-

mately 420

wideband noise of the part multiplied by a crest factor

of 5.25.

Aliasing

Aliasing is an inherent phenomenon of sampled data

filters. It primarily occurs when the frequency of an input

signal approaches the sampling frequency. For the

LTC1065, an input signal whose frequency is in the range

passband and stopband. Table 4 shows details.
