Microprocessor Programmable
Universal Active Filters
General Description
The MAX260/MAX261/MAX262 CMOS dual second-
order universal switched-capacitor active filters allow
microprocessor control of precise filter functions. No
external components are required for a variety of band-
pass, lowpass, highpass, notch, and allpass configura-
tions. Each device contains two second-order filter
sections that place center frequency, Q, and filter oper-
ating mode under programmed control.
An input clock, along with a 6-bit f
0
program input,
determine the filter's center or corner frequency without
affecting other filter parameters. The filter Q is also pro-
grammed independently. Separate clock inputs for
each filter section operate with either a crystal, RC net-
work, or external clock generator.
The MAX260 has offset and DC specifications superior
to the MAX261 and MAX262 and a center frequency
(f
0
) range of 7.5kHz. The MAX261 handles center fre-
quencies to 57kHz, while the MAX262 extends the cen-
ter frequency range to 140kHz by employing lower
clock-to-f
0
ratios. All devices are available in 24-pin DIP
and small outline packages in commercial, extended,
and military temperature ranges.

accuracy is tested at 199.49 on the MAX260/MAX261, and at 139.8 on the MAX262.
Note 2:
Q accuracy tested at Q = 8, 32, and 64. Q of 32 and 64 tested at 1/2 stated clock frequency.
Note 3:
The offset voltage is specified for the entire filter. Offset is virtually independent of Q and f

ratio setting. The test clock
frequency for mode 3 is 175kHz for the MAX260 and 750kHz for the MAX261/MAX262.
Note 4:
Output noise is measured with an RC output smoothing filter at 4
✕
f
0
to remove clock feedthrough.
Note 5:
TTL logic levels are: HIGH = 2.4V, LOW = 0.8V. CMOS logic levels are: HIGH = 5V, LOW = 0V. Power supply current is typi-
cally 4mA higher with TTL logic and clock input levels.
Note 6:
On the MAX260 only, the HP output signal swing is typically 0.75V less than the LP or BP outputs.
Note 7:
At ±2.5V supplies, the f
0
range and maximum clock frequency are typically 75% of values listed in Table 1.
Note 8:
f

and Q accuracy are a function of the accuracy of internal capacitor ratios. No increase in error is expected at ±2.5V
as compared to ±5V; however, these parameters are only tested to the extent indicated by the MIN or MAX limits.
