Description
The 858 Series are digitally programmable low pass and high-pass active filters that are tunable over a 256:1 frequency range. 858 filters are available with any one of six standard factory-set tuning ranges up to 102.4 kHz. These units contain 8 CMOS logic inputs that can be operated in a transparent or latching mode.
All 858 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 phase and amplitude characteristics. 858 filters operate from non-critical ± 12 to ± 18 Vdc power supplies, have a 10 kΩ (min.) input impedance, a 10 Ω (max.) output impedance and offer dc voltage offset adjustment.
Features/Benefits:
- Lower cost, high precision replacement for 848 and 878 series products.
- Low harmonic distortion and wide signal-to-noise ratio to 16 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.
- Factory-set tuning range, no external clocks or adjustments needed.
- Broad range of transfer characteristics and corner frequencies to meet a wide range of applications.
- Programmable Tuning and Control
- Digital Tuning & Control

Digital Tuning Characteristics
The digital tuning interface circuits are two 4042 quad CMOS latches which accept the following CMOS-compatible inputs: eight tuning bits (D0 - D7 ), a latch strobe bit (C), and a transition polarity bit (P).
Filter tuning follows the tuning equation given below:
fc = ( fmax/256 ) [ 1 + D7 x 27 + D6 x 26 + D5 x 25 + D4 x 24 + D3 x 23 + D2 x 22 + D1 x 21 + D0 x 20]
where D1 - D7 = "0" or "1", and
fmax = Maximum tuning frequency;
fc = corner frequency;
Minimum tunable frequency = fmax/256 (D0 thru D7 = 0);
Minimum frequency step (Resolution) = fmax/256

Power Sequence & ESD
Programmable Filters Modules
- Scope
The following precautions are necessary when handling and installing Frequency Devices programmable filter modules.
- Digital Circuit Description
The digital input pins connect directly to 4000 series CMOS logic, such as the 4053 analog switch. The power supply (Vss) for the digital logic on the module comes directly from the +15 Volt pin on the module. This sets the threshold voltage at 11.0 V minimum to 15.0 V maximum for a "1" (High) level and 0.0 V minimum to 4.0 V maximum for a "0" (Low) level. Applying a voltage between 4.0 and 11.0 V will produce unpredictable operation. Connecting 5 Volt or 3.3 V logic devices directly to the filter module without using a voltage translator will result in erratic operation of the filter.
- (VERY IMPORTANT) Power-Up and Power-Down Sequence
Do not plug-in or un-plug module while power is applied. It is imperative that power is supplied to the + 15 V pin on the filter module before or at the same instance that any digital pin is pulled High (> 0.0 V). Failure to do this will result in excessive current flowing through the digital input pin and through a protection diode internal to the 4000 logic, which will result in damage to the module. The proper power-up and power-down sequence is:
- Connect filter module ground.
- Connect filter module +15 V.
- Connect filter module -15 V.
- Connect the input signal.
All four of the above steps can also occur simultaneously. Power-down should occur in the reverse order.
- ESD Issues
Like most modern electronic equipment, the modules can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). The modules are shipped from the factory in sealed, anti-static packaging and should be kept in the sealed package prior to mounting on a circuit board. The following additional rules should also be observed when handling the modules after they are removed from the factory packaging:
- Only a person wearing a properly grounded wrist strap should handle the modules.
- Any work surface that the modules are placed on must be properly ESD grounded.
- Any insulating materials capable of generating static charge (such as paper) should be kept away from the modules.
