3 External Components
3.1 Rx Inputs
When using the internal anti-alias filter, the following is recommended:
CMX980A Advance Information
Figure 2: Recommended External Components - Rx Input
Example Values: MCLK = 9.216MHz
R1 = 220Ω
R2 = 1.2kΩ
C1 = 1.5nF (R1, C1 precise values are not critical, -3dB at 240kHz)
C2 = 3.9nF (R2 x C2 product, giving –3dB at 32kHz, should be preserved within 10%)
Table 2: Recommended External Components - Rx Inputs
The RC stage formed by R2 and C2 combined with the internal anti-alias filter and Rx FIRs gives a good
approximation to the desired filter characteristics and near-constant group delay over the passband. When
not using the internal anti-alias filter, it is suggested that the user should follow the guidelines in
Section 4.4.1. In both cases, there should be at least one filter pole close to the chip inputs.
3.2 Tx Outputs
Figure 3: Recommended External Components - Tx Outputs
Example Values: MCLK = 9.216MHz
R3 = 6.2kΩ
C3 = 1nF (R3 x C3 product, giving –3dB at 25kHz, should be preserved within 10%)
Table 3: Recommended External Components - Tx Outputs
The RC stage formed by R3 and C3 combined with the internal reconstruction filter and the Tx FIRs gives a
good approximation to the desired filter characteristics and near-constant group delay over the passband.
Decoupling capacitors should be employed as detailed in Section 4.4.1.
When the default master clock frequency is not used, the R2 x C2 and R3 x C3 products may be scaled with
MCLK, but care should be taken to ensure that FIR filter coefficients are designed to compensate for any
amplitude and phase distortion due to both on and off-chip filter components. This compensation is included
in the default filter coefficients. See Section 5.4 for further details.
