Transmission active filter

The transmission active filter is based on the ST7570 internal Power Amplifier (PA), with

input and output pins externally available to allow a filtering network tailored around the

amplifier. For the ST7570 demonstration board, a 3-pole low-pass filter has been realized by

cascading a simple R-C low-pass stage and a Sallen-Key 2-pole cell. The R12-C9 low-pass

stage is aimed at having a corner frequency of nearly 80 kHz, just above the higher S-FSK

tone, for a first filtering of the TX_OUT harmonics. The 1 nF value of C9 has been found to

be the optimal value to obtain a good filtering action without yielding unwanted capacitive

load distortion on the TX_OUT line. The transfer function of the 2nd order Sallen-Key cell is:

Figure 17 represents measured transfer function of the transmission active filter. It shows

good rejection at signal harmonic frequencies.
