The linear phase FIR digital filter sets the overall frequency
response. The decimation rate is set to 8 (2XMODE = low)
for all the figures shown in this section. Figure 19 shows
the frequency response from dc to 20MHz for
fCLK = 40MHz
f
CLK = 40MHz. The frequency response of the ADS1605/6
filter scales directly with CLK frequency. For example, if
the CLK frequency is decreased by half (to 20MHz), the
values on the X-axis in Figure 19 would need to be scaled
by half, with the span becoming dc to 10MHz.

Figure 20 shows the passband ripple from dc to 2.2MHz
(fCLK = 40MHz). Figure 21 shows a closer view of the
passband transition by plotting the response from 2.0MHz
to 2.5MHz (fCLK = 40MHz).

The overall frequency response repeats at multiples of the
CLK frequency. To help illustrate this, Figure 22 shows the
response out to 120MHz (fCLK = 40MHz). Notice how the
passband response repeats at 40MHz, 80MHz and
120MHz; it is important to consider this when there is
high-frequency noise present with the signal. The
modulator bandwidth extends to 100MHz. High-frequency
noise around 40MHz and 80MHz will not be attenuated by
either the modulator or the digital filter. This noise will alias
back in-band and reduce the overall SNR performance
unless it is filtered out prior to the ADS1605/6. To prevent
this, place an anti-alias filter in front of the ADS1605/6 that
rolls off before 37MHz.
