Abstract
A device includes a controller and an adaptive continuous-time filter that includes a control input and a first array of elements. The controller generates a digital word responsive to a time constant and compares a select bit of the digital word to a corresponding reference word to generate a control bit. The controller includes a duplicate array of elements, and applies the control bit to an adjustable element of the duplicate array of elements to modify the time constant. The controller provides the output word to the control input of the adaptive continuous-time filter to generate a filter response that accounts for effects of semiconductor process variation in the first array of elements.
