AK4390
Ultra Low Latency 32-Bit ΔΣ DAC
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AK4390 is a high performance stereo DAC capable of sampling up to 216kHz including a 32-bit digital
filter. The modulator uses AKM's multi-bit architecture, delivering wide dynamic range while preserving
linearity for improved THD+N performance. The AK4390 has fully differential switched-cap filter outputs,
removing the need for AC coupling capacitors and increasing performance for systems with excessive
clock jitter. The AK4390 accepts 192kHz PCM data, ideal for a wide range of applications including
Blu-Ray, DVD-Audio, high end sound cards, digital audio Firewire and USB interface boxes, and digital
mixers.

OPERATION OVERVIEW
■ System Clock
The external clocks, which are required to operate the AK4390, 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. Sampling speed and MCLK frequency are detected automatically and then the initial master clock
is set to the appropriate frequency (Table 1). When external clocks are changed, the AK4390 should be reset by the PDN
pin or RSTN bit. After exiting reset (PDN pin = “L” → “H”) at power-up etc., the AK4390 is in power-down mode until
MCLK is supplied.
The AK4390 is automatically placed in power saving mode when MCLK and LRCK stop during normal operation mode,
and the analog output is AVDD/2 (typ). When MCLK and LRCK are input again, the AK4390 is powered up. After
power-up, the AK4390 is in the power-down mode until MCLK and LRCK are input.
The MCLK frequency corresponding to each sampling speed should be provided (Table 2).

■ Audio Interface Format
Data is shifted in via the SDATA pin using the BICK and LRCK inputs. Eight data formats are supported, selected by the
DIF2-0 pins (Parallel control mode) or DIF2-0 bits (Serial control mode) as shown in Table 4. In all formats the serial data
is MSB-first, 2's compliment format and is latched on the rising edge of BICK. Mode 2 can be used for 20-bit and 16-bit
MSB justified formats by zeroing the unused LSBs.

■ De-emphasis Filter
A digital de-emphasis filter is available for 32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz sampling rates (tc = 50/15µs) and it is enabled or
disabled with the DEM1-0 pins or DEM1-0 bits. For 256fs/384fs and 128fs/192fs, the digital de-emphasis filter is always
off.

Table 5. De-emphasis Control
■ Output Volume Control
The AK4390 includes channel independent digital output volume control (ATT) with 256 levels at 0.5dB steps including
MUTE. The volume control is in front of the DAC, and it can attenuate the input data from 0dB to –127dB and mute.
When changing output levels, transitions are executed via soft changes; thus no switching noise occurs during these
transitions.
MS1046-E-03
2009/04
- 17 -
[AK4390]
■ Zero Detection
The AK4390 has a channel-independent zero detect function. When the input data for each channel is continuously zero
for 8192 LRCK cycles, the DZF pin of each channel goes to “H”. The DZF pin of each channel immediately returns to
“L” if the input data of either channel is not zero after going to “H”. If the RSTN bit is “0”, the DZF pins for both channels
go to “H”. The DZF pins of both channels go to “L” 4 ~ 5/fs after the RSTN bit returns to “1”. If the DZFM bit is set to
“1”, the DZF pins of both channels go to “H” only when the input data for both channels are continuously zero for 8192
LRCK cycles. The zero detect function can be disabled by setting the DZFE bit. In this case, DZF pins of both channels
are always “L”. The DZFB bit can invert the polarity of the DZF pin.
■ Soft Mute Operation
The soft mute operation is performed in the digital domain. When the SMUTE pin changes to “H” or the SMUTE bit set
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 −∞ after starting the operation, 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.

at ATT_DATA=255 in Normal Speed Mode.
(2) Analog output corresponding to 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 each channel is continuously zero for 8192 LRCK cycles, the DZF pin for each channel
goes to “H”. The DZF pin immediately returns to “L” if the input data are not zero after going “H”.
Figure 7. Soft Mute Function
■ System Reset
The AK4390 should be reset once by bringing the PDN pin = “L” upon power-up. The analog section exits power-down
mode by MCLK input and then the digital section exits power-down mode after the internal counter counts MCLK during
4/fs.

[AK4390]
■ Power ON/OFF timing
The AK4390 is placed in the power-down mode by bringing the PDN pin “L” and the registers are initialized. the analog
outputs are floating (Hi-Z). As some click noise occurs at the edge of the PDN pin signal, the analog output should be
muted externally if the click noise influences system application.
The DAC can be reset by setting RSTN bit to “0”. In this case, the registers are not initialized and the corresponding
analog outputs go to AVDD/2 (typ). As some click noise occurs at the edge of RSTN signal, the analog output should be
muted externally if click noise aversely affect system performance.

■ Reset Function
(1) RESET by RSTN bit = “0”
When the RSTN bit = “0”, the AK4390’s digital section is powered down, but the internal register values are not
initialized. The analog outputs settle to AVDD/2 (typ) and the DZF pins for both channels go to “H”. Figure 9 shows the
example of reset by RSTN bit.

becomes “1”.
(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”

■ Register Control Interface
Pins (parallel control mode) or registers (serial control mode) can control the functions of the AK4390. In parallel control
mode, the register setting is ignored, and in serial control mode the pin settings are ignored. When the state of the PSN pin
is changed, the AK4390 should be reset by the PDN pin. The serial control interface is enabled by the PSN pin = “L”. In
this mode, pin settings must be all “L”. Internal registers may be written to through3-wire µP interface pins: CSN, CCLK
and CDTI. The data on this interface consists of Chip address (2-bits, CAD0/1), Read/Write (1-bit; fixed to “1”), Register
address (MSB first, 5-bits) and Control data (MSB first, 8-bits). The AK4390 latches the data on the rising edge of CCLK,
so data should be clocked in on the falling edge. The writing of data is valid when CSN “↑”. The clock speed of CCLK is
5MHz (max).

The transition between set values is a soft transition of 7425 levels. It takes 7424/fs (168ms@fs=44.1kHz) from
FFH (0dB) to 00H (MUTE). If the PDN pin goes to “L”, the ATTs are initialized to FFH. The ATT values are
FFH when RSTN = “0”. When RSTN return to “1”, the ATT values fade to their current value. This digital
attenuator is independent of the soft mute function.

- VSS1/2/3/4 must be connected to the same analog ground plane.
- When AOUT drives a capacitive load, some resistance should be added in series between AOUT and the
capacitive load.
- All input pins except pull-down/pull-up pins should not be allowed to float.

Figure 13. Ground Layout
1. Grounding and Power Supply Decoupling
To minimize coupling by digital noise, decoupling capacitors should be connected to AVDD and DVDD, respectively.
AVDD is supplied from analog supply in system and DVDD is supplied from digital supply in system. Power lines of
AVDD and DVDD should be distributed separately from the point with low impedance of regulator etc. The power up
sequence between AVDD and DVDD is not critical. VSS1/2/3/4 must be connected to the same analog ground
plane. Decoupling capacitors for high frequency should be placed as near as possible to the supply pin.
2. Voltage Reference
The differential voltage between VREFHL/R and VREFLL/R sets the analog output range. The VREFHL/R pin is
normally connected to AVDD, and the VREFLL/R pin is normally connected to VSS1/2/3. VREFHL/R and VREFLL/R
should be connected with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor. All signals, especially clocks, should be kept away from the
VREFHL/R and VREFLL/R pins in order to avoid unwanted noise coupling into the AK4390.
3. Analog Outputs
The analog outputs are fully differential outputs at 2.8Vpp (typ, VREFHL/R − VREFLL/R = 5V), centered around
AVDD/2 (typ). 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, VREFHL/R − VREFLL/R = 5V). The bias voltage of
the external summing circuit is supplied externally. The input data format is two’s complement. The output voltage
(VAOUT) is positive full scale for 7FFFFFH (@24-bits) and negative full scale for 800000H (@24-bits). The ideal VAOUT
is 0V for 000000H(@24-bits).
The internal switched-capacitor filters attenuate the noise generated by the delta-sigma modulator beyond the audio
passband. Figure 14 shows an example of an external LPF circuit summing the differential outputs with an op-amp.
Figure 15 shows an example of differential outputs and a LPF circuit example by three op-amps.
