Anti-Aliasing and Post-DAC Filtering
When using the MAX7480 for anti-aliasing or post-DAC
filtering, synchronize the DAC and the filter clocks. If
the clocks are not synchronized, beat frequencies may
alias into the passband.
The high clock-to-corner frequency ratio (100:1) also
eases the requirements of pre- and post-SCF filtering.
At the input, a lowpass filter prevents the aliasing of fre-
quencies around the clock frequency into the pass-
band. At the output, a lowpass filter attenuates the
clock feedthrough.
A high clock to corner-frequency ratio allows a simple
RC lowpass filter, with the cutoff frequency set above
the SCF corner frequency to provide input anti-aliasing
and reasonable output clock attenuation.
Harmonic Distortion
Harmonic distortion arises from nonlinearities within the
filter. These nonlinearities generate harmonics when a
pure sine wave is applied to the filter input. Table 1 lists
the MAX7480’s typical harmonic-distortion values with
a 10kΩ load at T
