Wideband Noise
The wideband noise of the fi lter is the total RMS value
of the device’s noise spectral density and determines the
operating signal-to-noise ratio. Most of the wideband
noise frequency contents lie within the fi lter passband.
The wideband noise cannot be reduced by adding post
fi ltering. The total wideband noise is nearly independent
of the clock frequency and depends slightly on the power
supply voltage (see Table 3). The clock feedthrough
specifi cations are not part of the wideband noise.

Aliasing
Aliasing is an inherent phenomenon of sampled data
systems and it occurs for input frequencies approaching
the sampling frequency. The internal sampling frequency
of the LTC1069-7 is 50 times its f
CUTOFF
frequency. For

Speed Limitations
To avoid op amp slew rate limiting, the signal amplitude
should be kept below a specifi ed level as shown in Table 5.
