High-Resolution Mode

The oversampling ratio is 128 in High-Resolution mode. Figure 6-5 shows the frequency response in High-Resolution mode normalized to fDATA. Figure 6-6 shows the passband ripple, and the transition from passband to stop band is shown in Figure 6-7. The overall frequency response repeats at multiples of the modulator frequency fMOD (128 × fDATA), as shown in Figure 6-8. The stop band of the ADS1278QML-SP provides 100dB attenuation of frequencies that begin just beyond the passband and continue out to fMOD. Placing an antialiasing, low-pass filter in front of the ADS1278QML-SP inputs is recommended to limit possible high-amplitude out-of-band signals and noise. Often, a simple RC filter is sufficient. Table 6-2 lists the image rejection versus external filter order.
