7.8 Input and Output Filters

The input and output filters for the sense amplifier are placed as close to the sense amplifier as possible. This placement makes sure the unwanted noise received by the device is limited between the filter and the sense amplifier. Figure 7-7 shows an example layout of the input filters (C40, R30, and R31).
