APPLICATION EXAMPLES

General Configurations

When receiving low-level signals, limiting the bandwidth of the incoming signals into the system is often required.

The simplest way to establish this limited bandwidth is to place an RC filter at the noninverting terminal of the

amplifier, as Figure 36 illustrates.

Figure 36. Single-Pole Low-Pass Filter

If even more attenuation is needed, a multiple pole filter is required. The Sallen-Key filter can be used for this

task, as Figure 37 shows. For best results, the amplifier should have a bandwidth that is eight to 10 times the

filter frequency bandwidth. Failure to follow this guideline can result in phase shift of the amplifier.
