ABSTRACT:
A tuning circuit for generating a digital code to be used to calibrate a capacitor array of the type used in active RC filters is comprised of a single-slope A/D converter with fixed reference voltages as inputs and an output value which is dependent on the RC product of a resistor and capacitor within the converter. A decoder converts the RC product as measured by the A/D converter into a digital code which, when applied to the appropriate capacitor array, sets the array capacitance to compensate for the difference between the measured RC product and the nominal design value.
