3.4.4
The second mixer stages are followed by the channel
select filters. The channel select filters have a strong
influence on the noise bandwidth and selectivity of the
receiver and hence its sensitivity. Each filter comprises
a passive and an active section.
3.4.4.1
Each channel select filter features a passive
second-order RC filter, with a bandwidth programmable
through the PASFILV<3:0> bits (FILCREG<7:4). As the
wider of the two filters, its effect on the sensitivity is
negligible, but its bandwidth must be set up to optimize
blocking immunity. The value entered into this register
sets the single side bandwidth of this filter. For optimum
performance it should be set to three to four times the
cut-off frequency (fc) of the active Butterworth (or
Polyphase) filter described in Section 3.4.4.2 “Active
Filter”, and as shown in Equation 3-8.

3.4.4.2
The “fine” channel selection is performed by an active,
third-order, Butterworth filter, which acts as a low-pass
filter for the zero-IF configuration (FSK), or a complex
Polyphase filter for the low-IF (OOK) configuration. The
POLFILEN bit (SYNCREG<7>) enables or disables the
Polyphase filter.

filter varies between the two demodulation modes.
