DIGITAL FILTER
(4)
The ADS1246/7/8 use linear-phase finite impulse
response (FIR) digital filters that can be adjusted for
different output data rates. The digital filter always
settles in a single cycle.
Table 9 shows the exact data rates when an external
oscillator equal to 4.096MHz is used. Also shown is
the signal 3dB bandwidth, and the 50Hz and 60Hz
attenuation. For good 50Hz or 60Hz rejection, use a
data rate of 20SPS or slower.
The frequency responses of the digital filter are
shown in Figure 54 to Figure 64. Figure 57 shows a
detailed view of the filter frequency response from
48Hz to 62Hz for a 20SPS data rate. All filter plots
are generated with 4.096MHz external clock.
