CVCOM_OUT, CSTART_OUT, all is about 1/2VDD[V], and therefore the level of internal signal becomes about 1/2VDD[V], too. CVCOM has a pre-charge function, and it is possible to shorten of rising time of the bias in ON. (As for the CVCOM, ON/OFF of the pre-charge function is possible with a register bit.) CSTART terminal is used as a reference voltage of the output amplifier of the headphone, and it included pop sound low stage function in headphone path ON/ OFF, too. Capacitor value with the outside in the figure is recommended to make the PSRR character of both standard voltages the same. Choose the thing whose character is good in Capacitor with the outside because it becomes the reference voltage of the internal circuit. Pre charge CVCOM 4.7μF 30k CVCOM_OUT To the one except for the headphone amplifier output step 30k Pre charge CSTART 1μF 140k CSTART_OUT To the headphone amplifier output step 140k Fig.22 CVCOM, CSTRT equivalent circuit ・Analog input part The following is about each analog. Input. Please use the coupling capacitor with the outside in consideration of frequency characteristic of input. Input DC level is about 1/2VDD[V]. Input impedance on off (input non-choice) becomes Hi-z. When an input terminal isn’t used (when an input path isn’t set up) is open, and there is no problem. But, be careful that noise from the outside and so on doesn’t turn because it becomes Hi-z. When it is anxious, pull-down in about 100kΩ. ST1L and ST1R inputs change input impedance by setting of ATT1L and ATT1R respectively.

All rights reserved. 7/16 2010.09 - Rev.A Technical Note BU7831KN ・Analog output part The following is about Analog output part (EXTO, SPL, SPR, HPL, HPR). Each output amplifier is linked path select (MIXER1~5). Because stereo output is presumed, HPL and HPR are turned ON/OFF at the same time, and with pop sound decrease function. MIXER1 At the time of path choice SPL output amplifier ON MIXER2 At the time of path choice SPR output amplifier ON MIXER3 At the time of path choice EXTO output amplifier ON MIXER4 or MIXER5 At the time of path choice HPL, HPR output amplifier ON Be careful that noise from the outside and so on doesn't turn because it becomes Hi-z though the output that isn’t used is open and there is no problem. When it is anxious, pull-down in about 100kΩ. Output Port Output impedance (DC) At ON Output impedance (DC) At OFF EXTO 1.4Ω Hi-z SPL SPR 2.2Ω Hi-z HPL 1.5Ω HPR 0.6Ω GND short ・Attenuator Each attenuator has 16 steps (4bit), which contains mute. ATT6L and ATT6R that is attenuator of the headphone output has soft mute that decreases pop sound in switching. (ATT1 - 5 don't have this function.) The amount of software depends on a capacitor to connect to the CSTEP terminal. Decide the value of a capacitor to connect to the CSTEP terminal after you take pop volume and delay time into consideration because a fixed number becomes the bottom mostly at the time of that switching. ATT setting ATT ATT Mute HP output Thsmute Thsmute Thsmute=200×103 ×CSTEP [S] Fig.24 ・Analog path part About the internal pass circuit, the circuit that it has a path setting by the register turns it on. For example, when MIXSEL*_0 is chosen with either ATT, ST1R input is chosen, and a group of input amplifiers of ST1R turns it on. And a connected output amplifier is turned on when either input is chosen with MIXSEL* in the same way to the output circuit. www.rohm.com © 2010 ROHM Co., Ltd. All rights reserved. 8/16 2010.09 - Rev.A Technical Note BU7831KN ・Pop sound decrease circuit at the time of head phone output ON/ OFF It has the function that decreases pop sound that occurs at the time of ON/ OFF of the headphone output (HPL and HPR). When headphone output is chosen/non-chosen, it is the function that the DC output of the headphone output goes down smoothly on falling/rising. Rising time is decided by the capacitor value that it is connected to the CSTART terminal. Falling time is decided by the CSTART terminal and the coupling capacitor. Pop sound decreases as much as to be here if rising/falling is smooth. Decide the value of a capacitor to connect to the CSTART terminal after you take pop sound, rising/falling time into consideration because a fixed number becomes the bottom mostly at the time of that switching. And do settlement of timing in consideration of this time when you make it turn ON/OFF by the continuance. Pop sound is made when it switches in the middle of the descent of rising/falling. Headphone ON/OFF Headphone Output (DC) Thpout Thpout=80.6×103×CSTART[S] Fig.25 ・Digital part Input such as clock, data is to input "H" or "L" properly about each digital input terminal to contain at the time of standing by as well. If you turn off the power (When Hi-z is input), a control side is to avoid an input terminal's becoming open in either following method It has the possibility that penetration electric current occurs because it becomes the input which isn't fixed as BU7831KN when it isn't avoided. a) Terminal, in less than 10kΩ, pull-down b) Terminal, pull-up c) When it becomes input Hi-z, "L" is given to it. ・CPU interface NCS tch tcyc tcs SCLK tdh tds SDATA A7 A6 A5 A4 A3 A2 A1 A0 D7 D6 D5 D4 D3 D2 D1 D0 Fig.26 SDATA will be confirmed by 16th clock that is inputted after NCS falling edge, and then serial data reflect to internal register by NCS falling edge. The data format is 16bit rear. CPU I/F is 1Byte=16bit. Because it doesn't cope with continuous data transmission, you must surely insert the section of NCS= "H" between 1st Byte and 2nd Byte.

All rights reserved. 13/16 2010.09 - Rev.A Technical Note BU7831KN ●Notes for use 1) Absolute maximum ratings An excess in the absolute maximum ratings, such as supply voltage, temperature range of operating conditions, etc., can break down the devices, thus making impossible to identify breaking mode, such as a short circuit or an open circuit. If any over rated values will expect to exceed the absolute maximum ratings, consider adding circuit protection devices, such as fuses. 2) Operating conditions Characteristics are guaranteed under the conditions of each specified parameter. 3) Reverse polarity connection of the power supply Connecting of the power supply in reverse polarity can damage IC. Take precautions when connecting the power supply lines. An external direction diode can be added. 4) Power supply line Design PCB layout pattern to provide low impedance GND and supply lines. To obtain a low noise ground and supply line, separate the ground section and supply lines of the digital and analog blocks. Furthermore, for all power supply terminals to ICs, connect a capacitor between the power supply and the GND terminal. When applying electrolytic capacitors in the circuit, note that capacitance characteristic values are reduced at low temperatures. 5) GND voltage GND potential should maintain at the minimum ground voltage level. Furthermore, no terminals should be lower than the GND potential voltage including electric transients. 6) Short circuit between terminals and GND or other devices Pay attention to the assembly direction of the ICs. Wrong mounting direction or shorts between terminals to GND, or other components on the circuits, can damage the IC. 7) Operation in a strong electromagnetic field Using the ICs in a strong electromagnetic field can cause operation malfunction. 8) Inspection with set PCB During testing, turn on or off the power before mounting or dismounting the board from the test board. Do not power up the board without waiting for the output capacitors to discharge. The capacitors in the low output impedance terminal can stress the device. Pay attention to the electro static voltages during IC handling, transportation, and storage. 9) Input terminals In terms of the construction of IC, parasitic elements are inevitably formed in relation to potential. The operation of the parasitic element can cause interference with circuit operation, thus resulting in a malfunction and breakdown of the input terminal. Therefore, pay thorough attention not to apply a voltage lower than the GND to the input terminals. Furthermore, do not apply a voltage to the input terminals when no power supply voltage is applied to the IC. In addition, even if the power supply voltage is applied, apply a voltage lower than the power supply voltage to the input terminals, or a voltage within the guaranteed value of electrical characteristics. 10) Ground wiring patterns The power supply and ground lines must be as short and thick as possible to reduce line impedance. Fluctuating voltage on the power ground line may damage the device. 11) External capacitor When using external ceramic capacitors, consider degradation in the nominal capacitance value due to DC bias and changes in the capacitance with temperature. www.rohm.com © 2010 ROHM Co., Ltd.
