You are right. The cut off frequency (Fc) is proportional to the
input sample frequency (Fs) ... and the STe DMA frequency is
changed so that Fc changes proportionately. eg.
(50 KHz dma -> 20 KHz filter Fc)
(25 KHz dma -> 10 KHz filter Fc)
The capacitor switching frequency is altered to suit the Fc.

I have the data sheet somewhere, but I'm stating things from off the
top of my head.
