The Model 30A Series low-pass, elliptical filter/voltage gain amplifier is one of many plug-in filter cards used in the Models 3905B/3905C/3916B/3916C Programmable Filter Systems chassis.
As an elliptical filter, the Model 30A Series has a tunable cutoff frequency range from 0.01Hz to 99kHz, a roll-off rate of 115dB/octave and a minimum stopband attenuation of >80dB. Pass- band ripple is typically 0.22dB. The 30A provides either a single-ended or differential input with a common mode rejection of >60dB. Input gains up to 40dB in 10dB steps and output gains to 20dB are also provided. The 30A will accept input signals of ±10V peak at 0dB gain and has selectable ac or dc coupling. Overload detectors are standard and assist the user in detecting excessive input signals or incorrect gain settings.
The 30A is also a programmable voltage gain amplifier for applications that require a low noise amplifier. The amplifier has a bandwidth of 1MHz and gains to 60dB, selectable in 10dB steps, and a wideband noise of <25µV.
Typical applications for the Model 30A are: anti-aliasing in digital signal processing, separating specific bandwidths of information, enhancing signal-to-noise ratio, low noise pre-amplification and many more. Plug-in cards offering other types of filters with different frequency ranges, slopes and number of channels are also available.
