The LTC
®
1164-6 is a monolithic 8th order elliptic lowpass
filter featuring clock-tunable cutoff frequency and low
power supply current. Low power operation is achieved
without compromising noise or distortion performance.
At ±5V supplies the LTC1164-6 uses only 4mA supply
current while keeping wideband noise below 110µV
RMS
.
With a single 5V supply, the LTC1164-6 can provide up to
10kHz cutoff frequency and 80dB signal-to-noise ratio
while consuming only 2.5mA.
The LTC1164-6 provides an elliptic lowpass rolloff with
stopband attenuation of 64dB at 1.44 f
CUTOFF
and an f
CLK
-
to-f
CUTOFF
ratio of 100:1 (Pin 10 to V
). For a ratio of 100:1,
f
CUTOFF
can be clock-tuned up to 10kHz. For a f
CLK
-to-
f
CUTOFF
ratio of 50:1 (Pin 10 to V
+
), the LTC1164-6
provides an elliptic lowpass filter with f
CUTOFF
frequencies
up to 20kHz. When Pin 10 is connected to ground, the
LTC1164-6 approximates an 8th order linear phase re-
sponse with 65dB attenuation at 4.5 f
3dB
and f
CLK
/f
3dB
ratio of 160:1. The LTC1164-6 is pin compatible with the
LTC1064-1.

may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.

at least a 1µF capacitor (Figure 2). For single 5V operation
at the highest f
CLK
of 1MHz, Pins 3 and 5 should be biased
at 2V. This minimizes passband gain and phase variations
(see Typical Performance Characteristics curves: Maxi-
mum Passband for Single 5V, 50:1; and THD + Noise vs

be bypassed with a 0.1µF capacitor to an adequate analog
ground. The filter’s power supplies should be isolated
from other digital or high voltage analog supplies. A low
noise linear supply is recommended. Using a switching
power supply will lower the signal-to-noise ratio of the
filter. The supply during power-up should have a slew rate
less than 1V/µs. When V

GND (Pins 3, 5): The filter performance depends on the
quality of the analog signal ground. For either dual or
single supply operation, an analog ground plane sur-
rounding the package is recommended. The analog ground
plane should be connected to any digital ground at a single
point. For dual supply operation, Pins 3 and 5 should be
connected to the analog ground plane. For single supply

they should be bypassed to the analog ground plane with

buffer, Figure 3,can be used provided that its input common
mode range is well within the filter’s output swing. Pin 6 is
an intermediate filter output providing an unspecified 6th
order lowpass filter. Pin 6 should not be loaded.
ELLIPTIC/LINEAR PHASE (Pin 10): The DC level at this pin
selects the desired filter response, elliptic or linear phase
and determines the ratio of the clock frequency to the
cutoff frequency of the filter. Pin 10 connected to V
provides an elliptic lowpass filter with clock-to-f
CUTOFF
ratio of 100:1. Pin 10 connected to analog ground pro-
vides a linear phase lowpass filter with a clock- to-f
–3dB
ratio of 160:1 and a transient response overshoot of 1%.
When Pin 10 is connected to V
+
the clock-to-f
CUTOFF
ratio
is 50:1 and the filter response is elliptic. Bypassing Pin 10
to analog ground reduces the output DC offsets. If the DC
level at Pin 10 is switched mechanically or electrically at
slew rates greater than 1V/µs while the device is operating,
a 10k resistor should be connected between Pin 10 and the
DC source.
CLK (Pin 11): Any TTL or CMOS clock source with a
square-wave output and 50% duty cycle (±10%) is an
adequate clock source for the device. The power supply for
the clock source should not be the filter’s power supply.
The analog ground for the filter should be connected to
clock’s ground at a single point only. Table 1 shows the
clock’s low and high level threshold value for a dual or
single supply operation. A pulse generator can be used as
a clock source provided the high level ON time is greater
than 0.5µs. Sine waves are not recommended for clock
input frequencies less than 100kHz, since excessively
slow clock rise or fall times generate internal clock jitter
(maximum clock rise or fall time 1µs). The clock signal
should be routed from the right side of the IC package to
avoid coupling into any input or output analog signal path.
A 1k resistor between clock source and Pin 11 will slow
down the rise and fall times of the clock to further reduce
charge coupling, Figures 1 and 2.

(Pins 9, 6): Pin 9 is the specified output of the filter;
it can typically source or sink 1mA. Driving coaxial cables

harmonic distortion of the filter. When evaluating the device’s
distortion an output buffer is required. A noninverting
could go above ground, a signal diode must be used to
clamp V. Figures 1 and 2 show typical connections for dual
and single supply operation.

of
100:1, if a ratio of 50:1 is desired, connect a single pole
lowpass RC (f
–3dB
= 2 f
CUTOFF
) at the output of the filter.
The RC will make the passband gain response as flat as the
100:1 case. If the RC is omitted, and clock frequencies are
below 500kHz the passband gain will peak by 0.4dB at
90% f

When the LTC1164-6 operates with a single 5V supply and its
cutoff frequency is clock-tuned to 10kHz, an output single
pole RC filter can also help maintain outstanding passband
flatness from 0°C to 70°C. Table 2 shows details.
Clock Feedthrough
Clock feedthrough is defined as, the RMS value of the
clock frequency and its harmonics that are present at the
filter’s output (Pin 9). The clock feedthrough is tested with
the input (Pin 2) grounded and, it depends on PC board
layout and on the value of the power supplies. With proper
layout techniques the values of the clock feedthrough are
shown in Table 3.

RMS
Note: The clock feedthrough at ±2.5V supplies is imbedded in the wideband noise of the filter. (The
clock signal is a square wave.)
Any parasitic switching transients during the rise and fall
edges of the incoming clock are not part of the clock
feedthrough specifications. Switching transients have fre-
quency contents much higher than the applied clock; their
amplitude strongly depends on scope probing techniques
as well as grounding and power supply bypassing. The
clock feedthrough, if bothersome, can be greatly reduced
by adding a simple R/C lowpass network at the output of
the filter (Pin 9). This R/C will completely eliminate any
switching transient.
Wideband Noise
The wideband noise of the filter is the total RMS value of
the device’s noise spectral density and it is used to
determine the operating signal-to-noise ratio. Most of its
frequency contents lie within the filter passband and it
cannot be reduced with post filtering. For instance, the
LTC1164-6 wideband noise at ±2.5V supply is 100µV
RMS
,
90µV
RMS
of which have frequency contents from DC up to
the filter’s cutoff frequency. The total wideband noise
(µV
RMS
) is nearly independent of the value of the clock.
The clock feedthrough specifications are not part of the
wideband noise.
Speed Limitations
The LTC1164-6 optimizes AC performance versus power
consumption. To avoid op amp slew rate limiting at
maximum clock frequencies, the signal amplitude should
be kept below a specified level as shown on Table 4.
Aliasing
Aliasing is an inherent phenomenon of sampled data
systems and it occurs when input frequencies close to the
sampling frequency are applied. For the LTC1164-6 case,
an input signal whose frequency is in the range of f
CLK
±4%, will be aliased back into the filter’s passband. If, for
instance, an LTC1164-6 operating with a 100kHz clock

input signal, a 1.5kHz, 10µV

alias signal will appear at
its output. When the LTC1164-6 operates with a clock-to-
cutoff frequency of 50:1, aliasing occurs at twice the clock
frequency. Table 5 shows details.
