Low Pass Active Filter
The low pass filter shown in Figure 6 has a DC gain of ( - R2 / R1 )
and the –3dB corner frequency is 1/2πR2C. Make sure the filter is
within the bandwidth of the amplifier. The Large values of feedback
resistors can couple with parasitic capacitance and cause undesired
effects such as ringing or oscillation in high-speed amplifiers. Keep
resistors value as low as possible and consistent with output loading
consideration.
