14-Bit DC Accurate
Clock-Tunable, 8th Order Elliptic
or Linear Phase Lowpass Filter
Amplitude Response
Clock-Tunable, DC Accurate, 800Hz to 80kHz Elliptic Lowpass Filter
The LTC
®
1066-1 is an 8th order elliptic lowpass filter
which simultaneously provides clock-tunability and DC
accuracy. The unique and proprietary architecture of the
filter allows 14 bits of DC gain linearity and a maximum of
1.5mV DC offset. An external RC is required for DC
accurate operation. With ±7.5V supplies, a 20k resistor
and a 1µF capacitor, the cutoff frequency can be tuned
from 800Hz to 100kHz. A clock-tunable 10Hz to 100kHz
operation can also be achieved (see Typical Application
section).
The filter does not require any external active components
such as input/output buffers. The input/output impedance
is 500M/0.1 and the output of the filter can source or
sink 40mA. When pin 8 is connected to V
+
, the clock-to-
cutoff frequency ratio is 50:1 and the input signal is
sampled twice per clock cycle to lower the risk of aliasing.
For frequencies up to 0.75f
CUTOFF
, the passband ripple is
±0.15dB. The gain at f
CUTOFF
is –1dB and the filter’s
stopband attenuation is 80dB at 2.3f
CUTOFF
. Linear phase
operation is also available with a clock-to-cutoff frequency
ratio of 100:1 when pin 8 is connected to ground.
The LTC1066-1 is available in an 18-pin SO Wide package.

level threshold values for a dual or single supply operation.
Sine waves are not recommended for clock input frequen-
cies 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 left side of the IC package and perpendicular to it
to avoid coupling to any input or output analog signal path.
A 200 resistor between clock source and pin 9 will slow
down the rise and fall times of the clock to further reduce
charge coupling.

50:1/100:1 Pin (8)
The DC level at pin 8 determines the ratio of the clock to
the filter cutoff frequency. When pin 8 is connected to
V
+
the clock-to-cutoff frequency ratio (f
CLK
/f
CUTOFF
) is
50:1 and the filter response is elliptic. The design of the
internal switched-capacitor filter was optimized for a 50:1
operation.
When pin 8 is connected to ground (or 1/2 supply for
single supply operation), the f
CLK
/f
CUTOFF
ratio is equal to
100:1 and the filter response is pseudolinear phase (see
Group Delay vs Frequency in Typical Performance Charac-
teristic section).
When pin 8 is connected to V
(or ground for single supply
operation), the f
CLK
/f
CUTOFF
ratio is 100:1 and the filter
response is transitional Butterworth elliptic. The Typical
Performance Characteristics provide all the necessary
information.
If the DC level at pin 8 is mechanically switched, a 10k
resistor should be connected between pin 8 and the DC
source.
Input Pins (2, 3, 14, 16)
Pin 3 (+IN A) and pin 2 (–IN A) are the positive and
negative inputs of an internal high performance op amp A
PIN FUNCTIONS
UUU
Power Supply Pins (5, 18, 4, 10)
The power supply pins should be bypassed with a 0.1µF
capacitor to an adequate analog ground. The bypass
capacitors should be connected as close as possible to the
power supply pins. The V
+
pins (5, 18) and the V
pins (4,
10) should always be tied to the same positive supply and
negative supply value respectively. Low noise linear sup-
plies are recommended. Switching power supplies are not
recommended as they will lower the filter dynamic range.
When the LTC1066-1 is powered up with dual supplies
and, if V
+
is applied prior to a floating V
, connect a signal
diode (1N4148) between pin 10 and ground to prevent
power supply reversal and latch-up. A signal diode
(1N4148) is also recommended between pin 5 and ground
if the negative supply is applied prior to the positive supply
and the positive supply is floating. Note, in most labora-
tory supplies, reversed biased diodes are always con-
nected between the supply output terminals and ground,
and the above precautions are not necessary. However,
when the filter is powered up with conventional 3-terminal
regulators, the diodes are recommended.
Analog Ground Pin (15)
The filter performance depends on the quality of the
analog signal ground. For either dual or single supply
operation, an analog ground plane surrounding the pack-
age is recommended. The analog ground plane should be
connected to any digital ground at a single point. For dual
supply operation, pin 15 should be connected to the
analog ground plane. For single supply operation pin 15
should be biased at 1/2 supply and should be bypassed to
the analog ground plane with at least a 1µF capacitor (see
Typical Applications). For single 5V operation and for
f
CLK
1.4MHz, pin 15 should be biased at 2V. This
minimizes passband gain and phase variations.
Clock Input Pin (9)
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 5 shows the clock’s low and high

be done under the IC package through a short trace
surrounded by the analog ground plane. Pin 6 should be
0.2 inches away from any other circuit trace.

(see Block Diagram). Input bias current flows out of pins
2 and 3. Pin 16 (+IN B) is the positive input of a high
performance op amp B which is internally connected as
a unity-gain follower. Op amp B buffers the switched-
capacitor network output. The input capacitance of both
op amps is 10pF.
Pin 14 (FILTER
IN
) is the input of a switched-capacitor
network. The input impedance of pin 14 is typically 11k.
Output Pins (1, 7, 17)
Pins 1 and 17 are the outputs of the internal high perfor-
mance op amps A and B. Pin 1 is usually connected to the
internal switched-capacitor filter network input pin 14.
Pin 17 is the buffered output of the filter and it can drive
loads as heavy as 200 (see THD + Noise curves under
Typical Performance Characteristics). Pin 7 is the internal
switched-capacitor network output and it can typically
sink or source 1mA.

DC PERFORMANCE
The DC performance of the LTC1066-1 is dictated by the
DC characteristics of the input precision op amp.
1. DC input voltages in the vicinity of the filter’s half of the
total power supply are processed with exactly 0dB (or
1V/V) of gain.
2. The typical DC input voltage ranges are equal to:
V
IN
= ±5.8V, V
S
= ±7.5V
V
IN
= ±3.6V, V
S
= ±5V
V
IN
= ±1.4V, V
S
= ±2.5V
With an input DC voltage range of V
IN
= ±5V, (V
S
=
±7.5V), the measured CMRR was 100dB. Figure 1
shows the DC gain linearity of the filter exceeding the
requirements of a 14-bit, 10V full scale system.
3. The filter output DC offset V
OS(OUT)
is measured with the
input grounded and with dual power supplies. The
V
OS(OUT)
is typically ±0.1mV and it is optimized for the
filter connection shown in the test circuit figure. The
filter output offset is equal to:
V
OS(OUT)
= V
OS
(op amp A) –I
BIAS
× R
F
= 0.1mV (Typ)
4. The V
OS(OUT)
temperature drift is typically 7µV/°C
(T
A
> 25°C), and –7µV/°C (T
A
< 25°C).
5. The V
OS(OUT)
temperature drift can be improved by
using an input resistor R
IN
equal to the feedback resis-
tor R
F
, however, the absolute value of V
OS(OUT)
will
increase. For instance, if a 20k resistor is added in series
with pin 3 (see Test Circuit), the output V
OS
drift will be
improved by 2µV/°C to 3µV/°C, however, the V
OS(OUT)
may increase by 1mV
(MAX)
.
6. The filter DC output offset voltage V
OS(OUT)
is indepen-
dent from the filter clock frequency (f
CLK
250kHz).
Figures 2 and 3 show the V
OS(OUT)
variation for three
different power supplies and for clock frequencies up to
5MHz. Both figures were traced with the LTC1066-1
soldered into the PC board. Power supply decoupling is
very important, especially with ±7.5V supplies. If nec-
essary connect a small resistor (20) between pins 5
and 18, and between pins 10 and 4, to isolate the
precision op amp supply pin from the switched
capacitor network supply (see the Test Circuit).

AC (Passband) Gain
The passband gain of the LTC1066-1 is equal to the
passband gain of the internal switched-capacitor lowpass
filter, and it is measured at f = 0.25f
CUTOFF
. Unlike conven-
tional monolithic filters, the LTC1066-1 starts with an
absolutely perfect 0dB DC gain and phases into an “imper-
fect” AC passband gain, typically ±0.1dB.
The filter’s low passband ripple, typically 0.05dB, is mea-
sured with respect to the AC passband gain.
The LTC1066-1 DC stabilizing loop slightly warps the
filter’s passband performance if the – 3dB frequency of the
feedback passive elements (1/2πR

Transient Response and Settling Time
The LTC1066-1 exhibits two different transient behaviors.
First, during power-up the DC correcting loop will settle
after the voltage offset of the internal switched-capacitor
network is stored across the feedback capacitor C
F
(see
Block Diagram). It takes approximately five time constants
(5R
F
C
F
) for settling to 1%. Second, following DC loop
settling, the filter reaches steady state. The filter transient
response is then defined by the frequency characteristics
of the internal switched-capacitor lowpass filter. Figure 5
shows details.
DC loop settling is also observed if, at steady state, the DC
offset of the internal switched-capacitor network suddenly
changes. A sudden change may occur if the clock fre-
quency is instantaneously stepped to a value above 1MHz.
and on the value of the power supplies. With proper layout
techniques the values of the clock feedthrough are shown
on Table 7.

Wideband Noise
The wideband noise of the filter is the total RMS value of
the device’s noise spectral density and is used to deter-
mine the operating signal-to-noise ratio. Most of its fre-
quency contents lie within the filter passband and cannot
be reduced with post filtering. For instance, the LTC1066-
1 wideband noise at ±5V supply is 100µV

supply.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
WUUU
Aliasing
In a sampled-data system the sampling theorem says that
if an input signal has any frequency components greater
than one half the sampling frequency, aliasing errors will
appear at the output. In practice, aliasing is not always a
serious problem. High order switched-capacitor lowpass
filters are inherently band limited and significant aliasing
occurs only for input signals centered around the clock
frequency and its multiples.
Figure 6 shows the LTC1066-1 aliasing response when
operated with a clock-to-cutoff frequency ratio of 50:1.
With a 50:1 ratio LTC1066-1 samples its input twice
during one clock period and the sampling frequency is
equal to two times the clock frequency.
The figure also shows the maximum aliased output gener-
ated for inputs in the range of 2f
CLK
±f
C
. For instance, if the
LTC1066-1 is programmed to produce a cutoff frequency
of 20kHz with 1MHz clock, a 10mV, 1.02MHz input signal
will cause a 10µV aliased signal at 20kHz. This signal will
be buried in the noise. Maximum aliasing will occur only
for input signals in the narrow range of 2MHz ±20kHz or
multiples of 2MHz.
Figure 7 shows the LTC1066-1 aliased response when
operated with a clock-to-cutoff frequency ratio of 100:1
(linear phase response with pin 8 to ground).
Figure 6. Aliasing vs Frequency
fCLK/fC = 50:1 (Pin 8 to V +)
Clock is a 50% Duty Cycle Square Wave
Figure 7. Aliasing vs Frequency
