ADC_FILT+ Capacitor Effects on THD+N

The value of the capacitor on the ADC_FILT+ pin, 16, affects the low frequency total harmonic distortion +
noise (THD+N) performance of the ADC. Larger capacitor values yield significant improvement in THD+N
at low frequencies.

Figure 22

shows the THD+N versus frequency for the ADC analog input. Plots were tak-

en from the CDB53L21 using an Audio Precision analyzer.
