AUX Series Switching Amplifier Measurement Filter
The Audio Precision AUX-0025 / AUX-0040 / AUX-0100 switching amplifier measurement filters are inserted between the device under test and an analyzer input to reduce out-of-band switching signal components before measurement. They provide signal preconditioning for measurement accuracy in Class-D amplifier test.
The filters use a passive design for optimal performance, with custom inductors designed for high power handling and minimal low-frequency distortion. AUX-0025 (20 Hz–20 kHz) and AUX-0040 (20 Hz–40 kHz) are two-channel filters for two-channel analyzers such as the APx555 and APx52x Series; AUX-0100 is an eight-channel 20 kHz low-pass filter for the APx58x Series.
