Single-Supply, Sallen-Key Filter
Figure 12
shows the schematic for the single-supply, Sallen-Key filter circuit configuration.
Figure 12. Single-Supply, Sallen-Key Filter Schematic
Sallen-Key is one of the most commonly applied active filter topologies. The Sallen-Key is a non-inverting,
voltage-controlled, voltage-source (VCVS) able to attain larger Qs with a stable response than other filter
topologies. Because Sallen-Key is non-inverting, it might be preferable over the MFB topology.
The single-supply, Sallen-Key filter can be configured as a low-pass filter, high-pass filter, or band-pass
filter based on the component selection of Z1 through Z5.
Table 4
displays the type of passive component
that should be chosen for Z1 through Z5 for each filter configuration.
