DIGITAL FILTER The SINC2 register bit selects either the sinc
1
or sinc
2
filter. The sinc
1
filter settles in one conversion cycle
The programmable low-pass digital filter receives the

2
filter settles in two conversion cycles.

However, the sinc
2
filter has the benefit of wider
digital output. By adjusting the amount of filtering,

tradeoffs can be made between resolution and data

The low-pass digital filter sets the overall frequency
The filter consists of two sections: a fixed decimation
response of the ADS1259. The filter response is the
sinc
5
filter followed by a variable decimation filter,
product of the fixed and programmable filter sections,
configurable as sinc
1
or sinc

, as illustrated in

5
filter has fixed decimation of 64
and reduces the data rate of the modulator from

data from the sinc

filter. The second filter stage has
programmable averaging (or decimation) and can be
configured in either sinc
1
or sinc
2
mode. The
decimation ratio of this stage sets the final output
data rate. As detailed in Table 3, the DR[2:0] register
bits program the decimation ratio and the final output
data rate. The output data rates are identical for both
