LTC6603
Dual Adjustable
Lowpass Filter
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
n
The LTC®6603 is a dual, matched, programmable lowpass
filter for communications receivers and transmitters. The
selectivity of the LTC6603, combined with its linear phase,
phase matching and dynamic range, make it suitable for
filtering in many communications systems. With 1.5°
phase matching between channels, the LTC6603 can be
used in applications requiring pairs of matched filters,
such as transceiver I and Q channels. Furthermore, the
differential inputs and outputs provide a simple interface
for most communications systems.

The sampled data filter does not require an external clock
yet its cutoff frequency can be set with a single external
resistor with an accuracy of 3.5% or better. The external
resistor programs an internal oscillator whose frequency
is divided prior to being applied to the filter networks.
This allows up to three cutoff frequencies that can be
obtained for each external resistor value, allowing the
cutoff frequency to be programmed over a range of more
than six octaves. Alternatively, the cutoff frequency can
be set with an external clock. The filter gain can also be
programmed to 1, 2, 4 or 16.
The LTC6603 features a low power shutdown mode that
can be programmed through the serial interface and is
available in a 24-pin 4mm × 4mm QFN package.

LTC6603
ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: LTC6603C and LTC6603I are guaranteed functional over the
operating temperature range of –40°C to 85°C.
Note 3: LTC6603C is guaranteed to meet specified performance from
0°C to 70°C. The LTC6603C is designed, characterized and expected to
meet specified performance from –40°C to 85°C but is not tested or QA
sampled at these temperatures. The LTC6603I is guaranteed to meet the
specified performance limits from –40°C to 85°C.
Note 4: This test measures the internal oscillator accuracy (deviation from
the fCLK equation). Variations in the internal oscillator cause variations in
the filter cutoff frequency. See the “Applications Information” section.
Note 5: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 6: To conform to the logic IC standard, current out of a pin is
arbitrarily given a negative value.

PIN FUNCTIONS
V+IN (Pin 1): Input Voltage Supply (2.7V ≤ V ≤ 5.5V). This
supply must be kept free from noise and ripple. It should
be bypassed directly to a ground plane with a 0.1μF capacitor unless it is tied to V+A (Pin 2). The bypass should
be as close as possible to the IC, but is not as critical as
the bypassing of V+A and V+D (Pin16).
V+A (Pin 2): Analog Voltage Supply (2.7V ≤ V ≤ 3.6V). This
supply must be kept free from noise and ripple. It should be
bypassed directly to a ground plane with a 0.1μF capacitor.
The bypass should be as close as possible to the IC.
VOCM (Pin 3): Output Common Mode Voltage Reference.
If floated, an internal resistive divider sets the voltage
on this pin to half the supply voltage (typically 1.5V),
maximizing the dynamic range of the filter. If this pin is
floated, it must be bypassed with a quality 1μF capacitor
to ground. This pin has a typical input impedance of 3.4k
and may be overdriven. Driving this pin to a voltage other
than the default value will reduce the signal range the filter
can handle before clipping.
RBIAS (Pin 4): Oscillator Frequency-Setting Resistor Input.
The value of the resistor connected between this pin and
ground determines the frequency of the master oscillator,
and sets the bias currents for the filter networks. The voltage
on this pin is held by the LTC6603 to approximately 1.17V.
For best performance, use a precision metal film resistor with a value between 30.9k and 200k and limit the
capacitance on this pin to less than 10pF. This resistor is
necessary even if an external clock is used.
CLKCNTL (Pin 5): Clock Control Input. This three-state
input selects the function of CLKIO (Pin 15). Tying the
CLKCNTL pin to ground allows the CLKIO pin to be driven
by an external clock (CLKIO is the master clock input).
If the CLKCNTL pin is floated, the internal oscillator is
enabled, but the master clock is not present at the CLKIO
pin (CLKIO is a no-connect). If the CLKCNTL pin is tied
to V+D (Pin 16), the internal oscillator is enabled and the
master clock is present at the CLKIO pin (CLKIO is the
master clock output). To detect a floating CLKCNTL pin,
the LTC6603 attempts to pull the pin toward mid-supply.
This is realized with two internal 15μA current sources, one
tied to V+D and CLKCNTL and the other one tied to ground
and CLKCNTL. Therefore, driving the CLKCNTL pin high
requires sourcing approximately 15μA. Likewise, driving
the CLKCNTL pin low requires sinking 15μA. When the
CLKCNTL pin is floated, it should be bypassed by a 1nF
capacitor to ground or be surrounded by a ground shield
to prevent excessive coupling from other PCB traces.

PIN FUNCTIONS
LPF1(CS) (Pin 6): TTL Level Input. When in pin programmable control mode, this pin is the MSB of the lowpass
cutoff frequency control code; in serial control mode, this
pin is the chip select input (active low).
+INB, –INB (Pins 7, 8): Channel B Differential Inputs.
The input range and input resistance are described in the
Applications Information section. Input voltages which
exceed V+IN (Pin 1) should be avoided.
LPF0 (SCLK) (Pin 9): TTL Level Input. When in pin programmable control mode, this pin is the LSB of the lowpass
cutoff frequency control code; in serial control mode, this
pin is the clock of the serial interface.
SDI (Pin 10): TTL Level Input. When in pin programmable
control mode, this pin is left floating; in serial control
mode, this pin is the serial data input.
SDO (Pin 11): TTL Level Input. When in pin programmable
control mode, this pin is left floating; in serial control
mode, this pin is the serial data output.
–OUTB, +OUTB (Pins 12, 13): Channel B Differential Filter
Outputs. These pins can drive 1k and/or 50pF loads. For
larger capacitive loads, an external 100Ω series resistor
is recommended for each output. The common mode
voltage of the filter outputs is the same as the voltage at
VOCM (Pin 3).
GND (Pin 14): Ground. Should be tied to a ground plane
for best performance.
CLKIO (Pin 15): When CLKCNTL (Pin 5) is tied to ground,
CLKIO is the master clock input. When CLKCNTL is floated,
CLKIO is pulled to ground by a weak pulldown. When
CLKCNTL is tied to V+D (Pin 16), CLKIO is the master
clock output. When configured as a clock output, this pin
can drive 1k and/or 5pF loads (heavier loads will cause
inaccuracies).
V+D (Pin 16): Digital Voltage Supply (2.7V ≤ V ≤ 3.6V).
This supply must be kept free from noise and ripple. It
should be bypassed directly to a ground plane with a 0.1μF
capacitor. The bypass should be as close as possible to
the IC.
SER (Pin 17): Interface Selection Input. When tied to V+D
(Pin 16) or floated, the interface is in pin programmable
control mode, i.e. the filter gain and cutoff frequencies
are programmed by the GAIN1, GAIN0, LPF1 and LPF0
pins. When SER is tied to ground, the filter gain, the filter
cutoff frequency and shutdown mode are programmed
by the serial interface.
–OUTA, +OUTA (Pins 18, 19): Channel A Differential Filter
Outputs. These pins can drive 1k and/or 50pF loads. For
larger capacitive loads, an external 100Ω series resistor
is recommended for each output. The common mode
voltage of the filter outputs is the same as the voltage at
VOCM (Pin 3).
CAP (Pin 20): Connect a 0.1μF bypass capacitor to this
pin. Pin 20 is a buffered version of Pin 3.
GAIN0(D0) (Pin 21): TTL Level Input. When in pin programmable control mode, this pin is the LSB of the gain
control code; in serial control mode, this pin is the LSB
of the serial control register, an output.
GAIN1 (Pin 22): TTL Level Input. When in pin programmable
control mode, this pin is the MSB of the gain control code;
in serial control mode, this pin is a no-connect.
–INA, +INA (Pins 23, 24): Channel A Differential Inputs.
The input range and input resistance are described in the
Applications Information section. Input voltages which
exceed V+IN (Pin 1) should be avoided.
Exposed Pad (Pin 25): Ground. The Exposed Pad must
be soldered to PCB.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Theory of Operation (Refer to Block Diagram)
pull-up to V+D. None of the logic inputs have an internal
pull-up or pull-down.
The LTC6603 features two matched filter channels, each
containing gain control and lowpass filter networks that
are controlled by a single control block and clocked by
a single clock generator. The gain and cutoff frequency
can be separately programmed. The two channels are
not independent, i.e. if the gain is set to 24dB then both
channels have a gain of 24dB. The filter can be clocked
with an external clock source, or using the internal oscillator. A resistor connected to the RBIAS pin sets the bias
currents for the filter networks and the internal oscillator
frequency (unless driven by an external clock). Altering the
clock frequency changes the filter bandwidth. This allows
the filters to be “tuned” to many different bandwidths.

Connecting SER to ground allows the filter to be controlled
through the SPI serial interface. When CS is low, the serial
data on SDI is shifted into an 8-bit shift register on the
rising edge of the clock (SCLK), with the MSB transferred
first (see Figure 3). Serial data on SDO is shifted out on
the clock’s falling edge. A high CS will load the 8 bits of
the shift register into an 8-bit D-latch, which is the serial
control register. The clock is disabled internally when
CS is pulled high. Note: SCLK must be low before CS is
pulled low to avoid an extra internal clock pulse. SDO is
always active in serial mode (never tri-stated) and cannot
be “wire-ORed” to other SPI outputs. In addition, SDO is
not forced to zero when CS is pulled high.
Pin Programmable Interface
As shown in Figure 1, connecting SER to V+D allows the
filter to be directly controlled through the pin programmable control lines GAIN1, GAIN0, LPF1 and LPF0. The
GAIN0(D0) pin is bidirectional (input in pin programmable
control mode, output in serial mode). In pin programmable
control mode, the voltage at GAIN0(D0) cannot exceed V+D;
otherwise, large currents can be injected to V+D through the
parasitic diodes (see Figure 2). Connecting a 10k resistor
at the GAIN0(D0) pin (see Figure 1) is recommended for
current limiting, to less than 10mA. SER has an internal
An LTC6603 may be daisy-chained with other LTC6603s
or other devices having serial interfaces. Daisy chaining is accomplished by connecting the SDO of the lead
chip to the SDI of the next chip, while SCLK and CS
remain common to all chips in the daisy chain. The serial data is clocked to all the chips then the CS signal
is pulled high to update all of them simultaneously.
Figure 4 shows an example of two LTC6603s in a daisychained SPI configuration.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
GAIN1 and GAIN0 are the gain control bits (register bits
D6 and D7 when in serial mode). Their function is shown
in Table 1. In serial mode, register bit D1 can be set to 1
to put the device into a low power shutdown mode. Register bit D0 is a general purpose output (Pin 21) when in
serial mode.

Self-Clocking Operation
The LTC6603 features a unique internal oscillator which sets
the filter cutoff frequency using a single external resistor
connected to the RBIAS pin. The clock frequency is determined by the following simple formula (see Figure 5):
fCLK = 247.2MHz • 10k/RBIAS
be accurately varied from 24.14kHz to 2.5MHz. Table 2
summarizes the cutoff frequencies that can be obtained
with an external resistor (RBIAS) value of 30.9k. Note that
the cutoff frequencies scale with the clock frequency. For
example, if LPF1 and LPF0 are both equal to zero, and
RBIAS is increased from 30.9k to 200k, fCLK will decrease
from 80MHz to 12.36MHz and the cutoff frequency will
be reduced from 156.25kHz to 24.14kHz. The cutoff
frequencies that can be obtained with external resistor
values of 54.9k and 200k are shown in Table 3 and Table 4,
respectively. When the LTC6603 is programmed for the
cutoff frequencies lower than the maximum, the power is
automatically reduced. The power savings at the middle
bandwidth setting (LPF1 = 0, LPF0 = 1), is about 23%,
while the power savings at the lowest bandwidth setting
(LPF1 = 0, LPF0 = 0) is about 60%.
