For example, for an LTC1264 bandpass filter with fCENTER
= 100kHz and fCLK = 2MHz, a 3.9MHz, 10mV input will
produce a 100kHz, 10mV output. A 1st or 2nd order
prefilter will reduce aliasing to acceptable levels in most
cases.
A GUIDE TO BANDPASS DESIGN
Filter design tools like FCAD require design specification
inputs such as passband ripple, attenuation, passband
width and stopband width in order to calculate filter
parameters fO, Q, fn or poles and zeroes. The results of
these filter approximations most often require Q values
which make excessive demands on the gain-bandwidth
products of active filter realizations. The active filter de-
signer should define a gain response so that the filter’s
mathematical approximation has practical requirements.
Table 4 is a guide to practical design specifications for
realizing bandpass filters with LTC1264 (please also refer
to the Typical Maximum Q vs Clock Frequency and Band-
pass Gain Error graphs under Typical Performance Char-
acteristics).

Implementing the Bandpass Design
With the LTC1264 in Mode 1b, Butterworth and Chebyshev
bandpass designs with fCLK to fCENTER ratios greater than
20:1 are possible.
First choose the clock frequency which in Mode 1b must
be greater than 20 times the bandpass center frequency of
40kHz. For this example, let’s choose fCLK to be 1MHz.
Table 6 lists the resistors for for the bandpass design
example and Figure 11 shows the complete circuit.

Note: Reducing passband ripple or attenuation will decrease Q values. The
filter order may also increase.
