USER GUIDE SCC-LP Series Lowpass Filter Modules The SCC-LP Series lowpass filter modules contain fourth-order Butterworth filter circuitry. They accept two differential input signals within a ±10 V range. A differential amplifier attenuates each signal by a factor of two. The output of the amplifier passes through a fourth-order Butterworth filter circuit.

Touching this component may result in bodily injury. bold Bold text denotes items that you must select in software, such as menu items and dialog box options.
To set up and use the SCC-LPXX, you need the following items: ❑ SC-2345/2350 with one of the following: – SCC-PWR01 – SCC-PWR02 and the PS01 power supply – SCC-PWR03—requires a 7 to 42 VDC power supply (not included) ❑ One or more SCC-LPXX ❑...
Device Specific Information Note For general SCC module installation and signal connection information, and information about the SC-2350 carrier, refer to the SCC Quick Start Guide, available for download at ni.com/manuals Installing the Module Caution Refer to the Read Me First: Safety and Radio-Frequency Interference document before removing equipment covers or connecting/disconnecting any signal wires.
Using the SCC-LP XX when Scaling Voltage Measurements If you configured the SCC-LPXX using Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) and you are using NI-DAQ, the voltage reading you get from the E Series DAQ device accounts for the voltage scaling effect of the SCC-LPXX.

Theory of Operation SCC-LP XX Performance The SCC-LPXX uses a Butterworth filter, which is characterized by maximal flatness in the passband with very sharp monotonic rolloff. It has a nonlinear phase response, the delay is not constant, and the step response exhibits a moderate amount of overshoot (ringing).

The horizontal axes of the first two plots are normalized to the SCC-LPXX cutoff frequency. When the input frequency (f) equals the cutoff frequency (fc), the normalized frequency has a value of 1. The vertical axis of the third plot is normalized to the magnitude of the step input voltage.

Calibrating Gain Errors The SCC-LPXX is calibrated at the factory before shipment. If you want to calibrate the SCC-LPXX in your system, you need a voltage source capable of providing a DC voltage up to ±10 V that is several times more accurate than the SCC itself.
