Hi there,
I am actually developing an application on a TI micro controller. However, the question pertains to the op amp integrated on the device. I am attempting to implement a highly selective op amp filter with a component selection given to me by the online filter wizard software:
The ADA4661-2 in the simulation has a GBW of 4 MHz. The op amp on the MSP430FR2311 has the same 4 MHz bandwidth. I also utilized the buffered bandgap, VREF+ on the MSP430 as the level shifting reference voltage. The circuit functions fine when the input is a function generator. As I sweep the frequency from 10 Hz to 25 KHz, the op amp filter has the expected selective response. Likewise, when I input random white noise the filter seems to reject a majority of it:
My goal is to detect a high frequency audio pulse with a MEMS microphone (INMP404). However, when I try to feed the input of the microphone into the op amp filter, the filter becomes unstable and defaults to this:
And even if I remove the input source, the same waveform remains until I remove power to the circuit and reapply power. Is there some form of capacitance or other circuit phenomenon that forces the Multiple Feedback Topology to fall into an unsteady state? If I implement a regular inverting amplifier with the microphone and MSP430 op amp, I have no issues. I am only experiencing this issue with the highly selective BPF.
