818 Series
2" x 4"
8-Pole Filters
1 kHz to 1.28 MHz
8-Bit Programmable
Description
The 818 Series are digitally programmable low-pass
and high-pass active filters that are tunable over a
256:1 frequency range. 818 filters are available with
any one of five standard factory-set tuning ranges or
8-bit custom ranges from 1 kHz to 1.28 MHz. These
units contain 8 CMOS logic inputs.
818 Series models are convenient, low profile, easy
to use fully finished filters which require no external
components or adjustments. They feature low
harmonic distortion, and near theoretical amplitude
characteristics. 818 filters operate from non-critical
12 to 18 Vdc power supplies, have a 5 kΩ (min.)
input impedance, a 10Ω (max.) output impedance
and low-pass models offer dc voltage offset
adjustment.
Features/Benefits:
• Low harmonic distortion and wide signal-to-noise
ratio to 12-bit resolution
• Digitally programmable corner frequency allows
selecting cut-off frequencies specific to each
application
• Plug-in ready-to-use, reducing engineering design
and manufacturing cycle time
