FILTER CAPACITOR VALUES
KELVIN CONNECTION
Connect a capacitor to Pin 4 (CFILT) to implement a low-pass
filter. The capacitor value is
In certain applications, it may be desirable to connect the
inverting input of an amplifier to a remote reference point.
This eliminates errors resulting in circuit losses in inter-
connecting wiring. The AD628 is particularly suited for this
type of connection. In Figure 35, a 10 kΩ resistor added in the
feedback matches the source impedance of A2. This is
described in more detail in the Gain Adjustment section.
C = 15.9/ft (μF)
where ft is the desired 3 dB filter frequency.
Table 7 shows several frequencies and their closest standard
capacitor values.
