DAC4: AOUT (typ.@0dB) = (AOUT+)  (AOUT) = 2.8Vpp  (VREFH4  VREFL4)/5
Note 14. Regarding Load Resistance, AC load is 2k (min) with a DC cut capacitor (Figure 75). DC load is
3.5k (min) without a DC cut capacitor (Figure 75). The load resistance value is with respect to
ground. Analog characteristics are sensitive to capacitive load that is connected to the output pin.
Therefore the capacitive load must be minimized.
Note 15. In the power down mode. All other digital input pins including clock pins (MCLK, BICK and LRCK)
are held DVSS.

9. Functional Descriptions
■ D/A Conversion Mode (PCM mode, DSD mode)
The AK4458 can perform D/A conversion for either PCM data or DSD data. The DP bit controls PCM/DSD
mode. When DSD mode, DSD data can be input from DCLK, DSDL and DSDR pins. When PCM mode, PCM
data can be input from BICK, LRCK and SDTI pins. When PCM/DSD mode is changed by DP bit, the
AK4458 should be reset by RSTN bit. It takes about 2/fs to 3/fs to change the mode. Only PCM data is
supported in parallel mode.

Table 1. PCM/DSD Mode Control
■ System Clock
[1] PCM Mode
The external clocks, which are required to operate the AK4458, are MCLK, BICK and LRCK. MCLK should
be synchronized with LRCK but the phase is not critical. The MCLK is used to operate the digital interpolation
filter and the delta - sigma modulator.
There are two methods to set MCLK frequency. In Manual Setting Mode (ACKS bit= “0”: Default), the
sampling speed is set by the DFS0, DFS1 (Table 2) bits. The frequency of MCLK at each sampling speed is set
automatically. When reset is released (PDN pin = “↑”), the AK4458 is in Manual Setting Mode. In Auto
Setting Mode (ACKS bit= “1”), as MCLK frequency is detected automatically (Table 5) and the internal
master clock attains the appropriate frequency (Table 6, Table 7), so it is not necessary to set DFS bits.

1. Manual Setting Mode (ACKS bit = “0”)
MCLK frequency is detected automatically and the sampling rate is set by DFS2-0 bits (Table 2). The MCLK
frequency corresponding to each sampling speed should be provided externally (Table 3, Table 4). The
AK4458 is set to Manual Setting Mode at power-up (PDN pin = “L” →“H”). When DFS2-0 bits are changed,
the AK4458 should be reset by RSTN bit.

■ Audio Interface Format
The AK4458 supports both PCM and DSD formats for digital input signal. Mode settings are available by the
pins (TDM1-0 pins, DIF pin and DCHAIN pin) and registers (TDM1-0 bits, DIF2-0 bits, SDS2-0 bits and
DCHAIN bit). The RSTN bit should be toggled in case these format setting bits are changed during operation.
[1] PCM Mode
Normal Mode (TDM1-0 bits=“00”)
Eight channels audio data is shifted in via the SDTI1-4 pins using BICK and LRCK inputs. Data is selected by
SDS2-0 bits. Eight data formats are supported and selected by the DIF2-0 bits as shown in Table 13. In all
formats the serial data is MSB first, 2's compliment format and is clocked in on the rising edge of BICK. Mode
2 can be used in 16-bit and 20-bit MSB justified and Mode 6 can be used in 16-bit, 20-bit and 24-bit MSB
justified formats by zeroing the unused LSBs.
TDM128 Mode (TDM1-0 bits=“01”)
Eight channels audio data is shifted in via the SDTI1-2 pins using BICK and LRCK inputs. Data is selected by
SDS2-0 bits. The data input to the SDTI3-4 pins are ignored. BICK is fixed to 128fs. Six data formats are
supported and selected by the DIF2-0 bits as shown in Table 13. In all formats the serial data is MSB first, 2's
compliment format and is clocked in on the rising edge of BICK.
TDM256 Mode (TDM1-0 bits=“10”)
Sixteen channels audio data is shifted in via the SDTI1-2 pins using BICK and LRCK inputs. Data is selected
by SDS2-0 bits. The data input to the SDTI3-4 pins are ignored. BICK is fixed to 256fs. Six data formats are
supported and selected by the DIF2-0 bits as shown in Table 13. In all formats the serial data is MSB first, 2's
compliment format and is clocked in on the rising edge of BICK.
TDM512 Mode (TDM1-0 bits=“11”)
Sixteen channels audio data is shifted in via the SDTI1 pin using BICK and LRCK inputs. Data is selected by
SDS2-0 bits. The data input to the SDTI2-4 pins are ignored. BICK is fixed to 512fs. Six data formats are
supported and selected by the DIF2-0 bits as shown in Table 13. In all formats the serial data is MSB first, 2's
compliment format and is clocked in on the rising edge of BICK.

(1) TDM512 mode
Figure 29 shows example of TDM512 mode Daisy Chain structure (TDM1-0 bits= “11” ). 16ch data is input to
the second AK4458’s SDTI1 pin from a DSP. Connect the second AK4458’s TDMO1 pin to the first
AK4458’s SDTI1 pin. TDMO1 is 8ch shifted data of SDTI1. At TDM512 mode, TDMO2 outputs "L".
Figure 30 shows data I/O example of TDM512 mode. SDTI1 (L5-8, R5-8) data is the input for the DAC of the
second AK4458, and the second AK4458 outputs the data from TDMO1 by shifting 8ch. The first AK4458
accepts SDTI1 (L1-4, R1-4) data as input data of DAC. DIF2-0 bits setting of both first AK4458 and the
second AK4458 must be the same.

Figure 33 shows example of TDM256 mode Daisy Chain structure (TDM1-0 bits= “10” ). 16ch data is input to
the second AK4458’s SDTI1/2 pin from a DSP. Connect the second AK4458’s TDMO1/2 pin to the first
AK4458’s SDTI1/2 pin. TDMO1/2 are 4ch shifted data of SDTI1/2.
Figure 34 shows data I/O example of TDM256 mode. SDTI1 (L3-4, R3-4) and SDTI2 (L7-8, R7-8) data is the
input for the DAC of the second AK4458, and the second AK4458 outputs the data from TDMO1/2 by shifting
4ch. The first AK4458 accepts SDTI1 (L1-2, R1-2) and SDTI2 (L5-6, R5-6) data as input data of DAC.
DIF2-0 bits setting of both first AK4458 and the second AK4458 must be the same.

[2] DSD Mode
8ch Data is shifted in via the DSDL1-4 and DSDR1-4 pins using DCLK inputs. DSD data is supported by both
Normal mode (Figure 35) and Phase Modulation mode (Figure 36). Input data is clocked in on a rising or
falling edge of DCLK that is set by DCKB bit.
The frequency of DCLK is variable at 64fs, 128fs and 256fs by setting DSDSEL1-0 bits.

■ Output Volume (PCM mode, DSD mode)
The AK4458 has a channel-independent digital attenuator (256 levels, 0.5dB steps). Attenuation level of each
DAC1-4 can be set by ATT7-0 bits (register 0A-11H), respectively (Table 18). Input data is attenuated from
0dB to -127dB including Mute. The transition between set values is a soft transition, thus no switching noise is
occurred.

Table 18. Attenuation level of Digital Attenuator
Transition time between set values of ATL/R7-0 bits can be selected by the ATS1-0 bits (Table 19). The
transition between set values is a soft transition in Mode0/1/2/3 eliminating switching noise in the transition.
The register settings are maintained when switching the mode between PCM and DSD modes.

Table 19. Transition Time between Set Values of ATT7-0 bits
The transition between set values is a soft transition of 4080 levels in mode 0. It takes 4080/fs (92.5ms
@fs=44.1kHz) from FFH to 00H. If the PDN pin goes to “L”, ATT7-0 bits are initialized to FFH.
If the digital volume is changed during reset, the volume will be changed to the setting value after releasing the
reset. If the volume is changed in 5/fs after releasing a reset, the volume is changed immediately without soft
transition.
In DSD mode, the digital volume is set to MUTE by setting ATT7-0 bits = “02H” or “01H”.

■ Out of Band Noise Reduction Filter (PCM mode, DSD mode)
The AK4458 has an out of band noise reduction filter that can change frequency response. This FIR filter
attenuates out of band noise and prevents a degradation of the analog characteristics caused by a switching
regulator, etc. FIR2-0 bits set the frequency for noise attenuation. The filter characteristics will differ in DSD
direct mode compared with other modes (Table 20).

■ Zero Detection (PCM mode, DSD mode)
When zero detection function is enabled, the DZF pin goes to “H” if the input data at each channel is
continuously zeros for 8192 LRCK cycles. Zero detection channels (AOUTL1-4N/P and AOUTR1-4N/P pins)
can be selected by 07H/08H registers (L1-4 bits, R1-4 bits). The DZF pin immediately returns to “L” if the
input data of each channel is not zero. If the RSTN bit is “0”, the DZF pins of both channels go to “H”. The
DZF pin of both channels go to “L” after 4 ~ 5/fs when RSTN bit returns to “1”. The DZFB bit can invert the
polarity of the DZF pin. If all channels are disabled, the DZF pin outputs “Not zero”. Zero detection function is
disabled when DSDD bit = “1”.

■ LR Channel Output Signal Select (PCM mode, DSD mode)
Input and output signal combination of AOUTL1-4 and AOUTR1-4 pins can be set by MONO1-4 bits and

■ DSD Full Scale (FS) Signal Detection Function
The AK4458 has a full scale signal detection function for each channel in DSD mode. When the input data of
each channel (DSDL1/2/3/4, DSDR1/2/3/4) is continuously “0” (-FS) or “1” (+FS) for 2048 cycles, the
AK4458 detects a full scale signal and outputs “1” on the DML1/2/3/4 and DMR1/2/3/4 bits. The output data
is muted if a full scale signal is detected. When DSDD bit = “0”, the output data is changed in soft transition,
and the output data is changed without soft transition when DSDD bit = “1”. A recovering condition to normal
operation mode from full scale detection status is selected by DMC bit if DDM bit = “1”.
When DMC bit = “0”, the AK4458 will return to normal operation automatically by inputting a normal signal.
When DMC bit = “1”, the AK4458 will return to normal operation mode by writing “1” to DMRE bit.

■ Soft Mute Operation (PCM mode, DSD mode)
The soft mute operation is performed at digital domain. When the SMUTE pin goes to “H” or set SMUTE bit
to “1”, the output signal is attenuated by  during ATT_DATA  ATT transition time from the current ATT
level. When the SMUTE pin is returned to “L” or the SMUTE bit is returned to “0”, the mute is cancelled and
the output attenuation gradually changes to the ATT level during ATT_DATA  ATT transition time. If the
soft mute is cancelled before attenuating , the attenuation is discontinued and returned to ATT level by the
same cycle. The soft mute is effective for changing the signal source without stopping the signal transmission.

(2) The analog output corresponding to the digital input has group delay (GD).
(3) If the soft mute is cancelled before attenuating  after starting the operation, the attenuation is
discontinued and returned to ATT level by the same cycle.
(4) When the input data for a zero detection channel is continuously zeros for 8192 LRCK cycles, the DZF
pin goes to “H”. The DZF pin immediately returns to “L” if input data are not zero.

■ Error Detection
Three types of error can be detected in I2C mode when the LDOE pin = “H” (Table 28). When the error is
detected, all circuits are powered-down and the analog outputs become floating (Hi-Z) state. In I2C mode, the
AK4458 does not generate acknowledge (ACK) in error status. Once the error is detected the AK4458 does not
return to normal operation automatically even if the error condition is removed so restart the AK4458 by the
PDN pin.

LDO Over Voltage Detection
LDO voltage > 2.2 ~ 2.5V
3
LDO Over Current Detection
LDO current < 40 ~ 110mA
Table 28. Error Detection
In I2C mode, the AK4458 does not generate acknowledge (ACK) in error status.
■ System Reset
The AK4458 should be reset once by bringing the PDN pin = “L” upon power-up. In PCM (DSD) mode, the
AK4458 exits this system reset (power-down mode) by MCLK and LRCK (DCLK) after the PDN pin = “H”.
The AK4458 detects a rising edge of MCLK first, and then the analog block exits power-down mode by a
rising edge of LRCK (DCLK). The digital block exits power-down mode after the internal counter counts
MCLK for 4/fs.

■ Power Down Function
The AK4458 is placed in power-down mode by bringing the PDN pin “L” and the analog outputs become

Notes:
(1) After AVDD and TVDD are powered-up, the PDN pin should be “L” for 150ns.
(2) After PDN pin = “H”, the internal LDO power-up if the LDOE pin = “H”. The internal circuits will be
powered up after shutdown switch is ON in the end of a counter by the internal oscillator
(10ms(max)). If the LDOE pin = “L”, the shutdown switch is activated after the AK4458 is powered
up. The internal circuits will be powered up in 1msec (max) after the activation of the shutdown
switch.
During this period, digital output and digital in/output pins may output an instantaneous pulse (max.
1us). Therefore, referring the output of digital pins and data transmission with a device on the same
3-wire serial/I2C bus as the AK4458 should be avoided in this period to prevent system errors.
(3) The analog output corresponding to digital input has group delay (GD).
(4) Analog outputs are floating (Hi-Z) in power down mode.
(5) Click noise occurs at the edge of PDN signal. This noise is output even if “0” data is input.
(6) Mute the analog output externally if click noise (3) adversely affect system performance
The timing example is shown in this figure.
(7) The DZF pin is “L” in the internal power-down mode.

(2) Reset Function (RSTN bit)
The DAC can be reset by setting RSTN bit to “0” but the internal registers are not initialized. In this time, the
corresponding analog outputs go to VREFH/2 and the DZF pin outputs “H” if clocks (MCLK, BICK and
LRCK) are input. Figure 60 shows an example of reset sequence by RSTN bit.

the internal RSTN.
(5) There is a delay, 3~4/fs from RSTN bit “0” to the internal RSTN bit “0”, and 2~3/fs from RSTN bit “1”
to the internal RSTN bit “1”.

(3) Reset Function (MCLK Stop)
When the MCLK stops for more than 10us during operation (PDN pin = “H”), the AK4458 is placed in reset
state and the analog output goes to floating state (Hi-Z). When the MCLK is restarted, reset state is released
and the AK4458 returns to normal operation mode. Zero detection function is disabled while the MCLK is
stopped. Figure 61 shows a reset sequence by stopping the MCLK.

inputting “0” data during this period.
(4) Click noise occurs within 3 ~ 4LRCK from the riding edge (“↑”) of the PDN pin or MCLK inputs. This
noise is output even if “0” data is input.
(5) Mute the analog output externally if click noise (4) adversely affect system performance.

■ Synchronization Function (PCM Mode)
● Synchronization Function (Analog Output Phase Synchronization)
This function synchronizes analog output phase by suppressing the phase difference of the AK4458 and other
AKM devices with synchronization function to within 3/256fs. Analog output phase synchronization function
becomes valid when input data at all channels are continuously “0” for 8192 times if SYNCE bit is set to “1”
during operation in PCM mode or when RSTN bit is set to “0”.
Example) In the case of using the AK4458 with the AK4452 (Figure 62)
The AK4452 and the AK4458 have synchronization function. The output phase difference between the
AK4452’s output (AOUT1LP/N_2, AOUT1RP/N_2) and the AK4458’s output (AOUT1-4LP/N_8,
AOUT1-4RP/N_8) will be within 3/256fs.

■ Parallel Mode
Parallel mode is available by setting the I2C pin = “H”, and the PS pin = “H”. Audio interface format of the
parallel mode is controlled by TDM1-0 bits and DIF bit (Table 30). Daisy Chain mode is also available by
setting the DCHAIN pin = “H” (Table 15). In parallel mode, the clock setting mode is always in auto setting
mode (ACKS mode is enabled and fixed internally) and reset is released (RSTN bit = “1”).
Zero detection function is not available in parallel mode. All functions controlled exclusively by Serial mode
are only available in their default register settings.

■ Serial Control Interface
The AK4458’s functions are controlled through registers. The registers may be written by two types of control
modes. The internal registers are controlled in 3-wire serial control mode when the I2C pin = “L”, and in I2C
bus control mode when the I2C pin = “H” and the PS pin = “L”.

[AK4458]
(1) 3-wire Serial Control Mode (I2C pin = “L”)
The internal registers may be written through the 3-wire µP interface pins (CSN, CCLK and CDTI). The
data on this interface consists of a 2-bit Chip address, Read/Write (1bit, Fixed to “1”, Write only),
Register address (MSB first, 5bits) and Control data (MSB first, 8bits). Address and data are clocked in
on the rising edge of CCLK and data is clocked out on the falling edge. For write operations, data is
latched after a low-to-high transition of CSN. The clock speed of CCLK is 5MHz (max).
The internal registers are initialized by setting the PDN pin = “L”. In serial mode, an internal timing
circuit is reset by setting RSTN bit = “0” but register values are not initialized.

(2) I2C-bus Control Mode (I2C pin = “H”)
The AK4458 supports the fast-mode I2C-bus (max: 400kHz, Ver1.0).
1. WRITE Operations
Figure 64 shows the data transfer sequence of the I2C-bus mode. All commands are preceded by a START
condition. A HIGH to LOW transition on the SDA line while SCL is HIGH indicates a START condition
(Figure 70). After the START condition, a slave address is sent. This address is 7 bits long followed by the
eighth bit that is a data direction bit (R/W). The most significant five bits of the slave address are fixed as
“00100”. The next bits are CAD1-0 (device address bits). This bits identifies the specific device on the bus.
The hard-wired input pins (CAD1-0 pins) set these device address bit (Figure 65). If the slave address matches
that of the AK4458, the AK4458 generates an acknowledge and the operation is executed. The master must
generate the acknowledge-related clock pulse and release the SDA line (HIGH) during the acknowledge clock
pulse (Figure 71). R/W bit = “1” indicates that the read operation is to be executed. “0” indicates that the write
operation is to be executed.
The second byte consists of the control register address of the AK4458. The format is MSB first, and those
most significant 3-bits are fixed to zeros (Figure 66). The data after the second byte contains control data. The
format is MSB first, 8bits (Figure 67). The AK4458 generates an acknowledge after each byte is received. Data
transfer is always terminated by a STOP condition generated by the master. A LOW to HIGH transition on the
SDA line while SCL is HIGH defines STOP condition (Figure 70).
The AK4458 can perform more than one byte write operation per sequence. After receipt of the third byte the
AK4458 generates an acknowledge and awaits the next data. The master can transmit more than one byte
instead of terminating the write cycle after the first data byte is transferred. After receiving each data packet the
internal 6-bit address counter is incremented by one, and the next data is automatically taken into the next
address. If the address exceeds “14H” prior to generating a stop condition, the address counter will “roll over”
to “00H” and the previous data will be overwritten.
The data on the SDA line must remain stable during the HIGH period of the clock. The HIGH or LOW state of
the data line can only change when the clock signal on the SCL line is LOW (Figure 72) except for the START
and STOP conditions.

2. READ Operations
Set the R/W bit = “1” for the READ operation of the AK4458. After transmission of data, the master can read
the next address’s data by generating an acknowledge instead of terminating the write cycle after the receipt of
the first data word. After receiving each data packet the internal 6-bit address counter is incremented by one,
and the next data is automatically taken into the next address. If the address exceeds 0EH prior to generating
stop condition, the address counter will “roll over” to “00H” and the data of “14H” will be read out.
The AK4458 supports two basic read operations: Current Address Read and Random Address Read.
2-1. Current Address Read
The AK4458 contains an internal address counter that maintains the address of the last word accessed,
incremented by one. Therefore, if the last access (either a read or write) was to address “n”, the next
CURRENT READ operation would access data from the address “n+1”. After receipt of the slave address with
R/W bit “1”, the AK4458 generates an acknowledge, transmits 1-byte of data to the address set by the internal
address counter and increments the internal address counter by 1. If the master does not generate an
acknowledge but generates a stop condition instead, the AK4458 ceases transmission.

Figure 68. Current Address Read
2-2. Random Address Read
The random read operation allows the master to access any memory location at random. Prior to issuing a slave
address with the R/W bit =“1”, the master must execute a “dummy” write operation first. The master issues a
start request, a slave address (R/W bit = “0”) and then the register address to read. After the register address is
acknowledged, the master immediately reissues the start request and the slave address with the R/W bit =“1”.
The AK4458 then generates an acknowledge, 1 byte of data and increments the internal address counter by 1.
If the master does not generate an acknowledge but generates a stop condition instead, the AK4458 ceases
transmission.

1. Grounding and Power Supply Decoupling
To minimize coupling by digital noise, decoupling capacitors should be connected to AVDD and TVDD
respectively. AVDD are supplied from the analog supply of the system and TVDD is supplied from the digital
supply of the system. DVSS and AVSS must be connected to the same potential. Decoupling
capacitors especially small ceramic capacitors for high frequency should be placed as near as possible to the
supply pin.
2. Voltage Reference
The potential difference between the VREFH1/2/3/4 pin and the VREFL1/2/3/4 pin sets the analog output
range. The VREFH1/2/3/4 pin is normally connected to AVDD, and the VREFL1/2/3/4 pin is normally
connected to AVSS. VREFH1/2/3/4 and VREFL1/2/3/4 should be connected with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor as
near as possible to the pin to eliminate the effects of high frequency noise. All signals, especially clocks, should
be kept away from the VREFH1/2/3/4 and VREFL1/2/3/4 pins in order to avoid unwanted noise coupling into
the AK4458.

3. Analog Outputs
The analog outputs are full differential outputs and 2.8Vpp (typ, VREFH1/2/3/4  VREFL1/2/3/4 = 5V)
centered around VREFH2. The differential outputs are summed externally, VAOUT = (AOUT+)  (AOUT)
between AOUT+ and AOUT. If the summing gain is 1, the output range is 5.6Vpp (typ, VREFH1/2/3/4 
VREFL1/2/3/4 = 5V). The bias voltage of the external summing circuit is supplied externally. PCM input data
format is 2's complement. The output voltage (VAOUT) is a positive full scale for 7FFFFFH (@24bit) and a
negative full scale for 800000H (@24bit). The ideal VAOUT is 0V for 000000H(@24bit).
The output level is determined by the 1-bit signal duty ratio in DSD input mode. The output level is positive full
scale when the duty is 100% (all “1”) and the output level is negative full scale when the duty is 0% (all “0”). In
ideal case, a 0V voltage is output when the input signal duty is 50%.
The internal switched - capacitor filters attenuate the noise generated by the delta -sigma modulator beyond the
audio pass band. Figure 75 shows an example of differential outputs and LPF circuit example by a single
op-amp.
