Gain vs Frequency
Figure 8. Low Noise AC Amplifier with Programmable Gain and Bandwidth
TYPICAL APPLICATIO S
U
Measured frequency responses in Figure 8 with
LTC6910-1 PGAs demonstrate bandwidth settings of 10Hz,
100Hz and 1kHz, with digital codes at the BW inputs of
respectively 001, 100 and 111, and unity gain in each case.
By scaling C2, this circuit can serve other bandwidths,
such as a maximum of 10kHz with 0.1
F using LT1884
(gain-bandwidth product around 1MHz). Noise floor from
internal sources yields an output SNR of 76dB with 10mVP-
P input, gain of 100 and 100Hz bandwidth; for 100mVP-P
input, gain of 10 and 1000Hz bandwidth it is 64dB.
