Working Principles

The MAX7424EUA+T combines a low-pass filter and a programmable gain amplifier to condition input signals. The cutoff frequency and gain can be programmed using external resistors and capacitors. The input signal is filtered by the low-pass filter, removing high-frequency components, while the programmable gain amplifier amplifies the filtered signal according to the selected gain setting. The conditioned output signal is then available at the OUT pin.
