Abstract: An audio filter circuit is formed from a pair of cross-coupled, symmetric filters, each filter having a first stage comprising a single-pole, inverting low pass filter followed by a second stage comprising a two-pole, non-inverting Sallen-Key low pass filter. The circuit is readily switched between single-ended and double-ended output, while maintaining comparable noise and gain characteristics. The gain of the circuit is readily adjustable over a range of gains.
