  • Page 10: Overview

    The SIM965 Analog Filter is a continuous-time, digitally-programmable filter with fully analog signal paths. By using a modified state- variable circuit design, the SIM965 provides a variety of programmed filter configurations. From the front panel, the user can select a But- terworth filter, for maximum passband gain flatness, or a Bessel...

Pressing either [Freq. ] or [Freq. ] once will cause the least significant digit in the display to increment (or decrement)
  • Page 17: Clock Stopping

    Each output is (separately) connected the filter circuitry through an internal 50 resistor. 1.4 Clock Stopping The microprocessor clock of the SIM965 stops if the module is idle, “freezing” the digital circuitry. The following actions “wake up” the clock: 1. A power-on.

Ordinarily, the clock oscillator for the SIM965 microcontroller is held in a stopped state, and only enabled during processing of events (Section 1.4). Setting AWAK ON forces the clock to stay running, and is useful only for diagnostic purposes.

    When the microcontroller has completed all pending activity, it drives the STOP signal high (pin 8 of U104), e ectively halting its own processor clock. In this way, the SIM965 guarantees no digital clock artifacts can be generated during quiescent operation.
