Working Principles

The MAX7420CUA+T is a low-pass filter IC that utilizes an active RC (Resistor-Capacitor) network. It filters out high-frequency components from analog signals, allowing only low-frequency signals to pass through. The cut-off frequency can be programmed using external resistors and capacitors connected to the F0 and F1 pins. The filtered output signal is then available at the OUT pin.
