DAC Sampling Frequency: 32kHz – 192kHz
The stereo 24-bit multi-bit sigma delta ADC has
programmable gain with automatic level control. Digital
audio output word lengths from 16-32 bits and sampling
rates from 32kHz to 96kHz are supported.
A stereo multi-bit sigma delta DAC is used with digital
audio input word lengths from 16-32 bits and sampling
rates from 32kHz to 192kHz. A multiplexor after the DAC
allows the selection of either an external analogue input
or DAC playback into the line outputs.
The WM8778 supports fully independent sample rates
for the ADC and DAC. The audio data interface supports
I2S, left justified, right justified and DSP formats.
The device is controlled in software via a 2 or 3 wire
serial interface which provides access to all features
including volume controls, mutes, and de-emphasis
facilities. It can also be controlled in hardware which
gives access to the most commonly used features.
Control interface selection is done via the MODE pin (trilevel). The device is available in a 28-lead SSOP
package.

ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
Absolute Maximum Ratings are stress ratings only. Permanent damage to the device may be caused by continuously operating at
or beyond these limits. Device functional operating limits and guaranteed performance specifications are given under Electrical
Characteristics at the test conditions specified.
ESD Sensitive Device. This device is manufactured on a CMOS process. It is therefore generically susceptible
to damage from excessive static voltages. Proper ESD precautions must be taken during handling and storage
of this device.
Wolfson tests its package types according to IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B for Moisture Sensitivity to determine acceptable storage
conditions prior to surface mount assembly. These levels are:
MSL1 = unlimited floor life at <30°C / 85% Relative Humidity. Not normally stored in moisture barrier bag.
MSL2 = out of bag storage for 1 year at <30°C / 60% Relative Humidity. Supplied in moisture barrier bag.
MSL3 = out of bag storage for 168 hours at <30°C / 60% Relative Humidity. Supplied in moisture barrier bag.
The Moisture Sensitivity Level for each package type is specified in Ordering Information.

Notes:
1.
Ratio of output level with 1kHz full scale input, to the output level with all zeros into the digital input, measured ‘A’
weighted.
2.
All performance measurements done with 20kHz low pass filter, and where noted an A-weight filter. Failure to use
such a filter will result in higher THD+N and lower SNR and Dynamic Range readings than are found in the Electrical
Characteristics. The low pass filter removes out of band noise; although it is not audible it may affect dynamic
specification values.
3.
VMID decoupled with 10uF and 0.1uF capacitors (smaller values may result in reduced performance).
4.
Harmonic distortion on the headphone output decreases with output power.
5.
All performance measurement done using certain timings conditions (Please refer to section ‘Digital Audio Interface’).
6.
A full digital MUTE can be achieved if the ADC gain (LAG/RAG) is set to minimum.
TERMINOLOGY
1.
Signal-to-noise ratio (dB) - SNR is a measure of the difference in level between the full scale output and the output
with no signal applied. (No Auto-zero or Automute function is employed in achieving these results).
2.
Dynamic range (dB) - DNR is a measure of the difference between the highest and lowest portions of a signal.
Normally a THD+N measurement at 60dB below full scale. The measured signal is then corrected by adding the 60dB
to it. (e.g. THD+N @ -60dB= -32dB, DR= 92dB).
3.
THD+N (dB) - THD+N is a ratio, of the rms values, of (Noise + Distortion)/Signal.
4.
Stop band attenuation (dB) - Is the degree to which the frequency spectrum is attenuated (outside audio band).
5.
Channel Separation (dB) - Also known as Cross-Talk. This is a measure of the amount one channel is isolated from
the other. Normally measured by sending a full scale signal down one channel and measuring the other.
6.
Pass-Band Ripple - Any variation of the frequency response in the pass-band region.

INTERNAL POWER ON RESET CIRCUIT
Figure 8 Internal Power on Reset Circuit Schematic
The WM8778 includes an internal Power on Reset Circuit which is used reset the digital logic into a
default state after power up.
Figure 8 shows a schematic of the internal POR circuit. The POR circuit is powered from AVDD. The
circuit monitors DVDD and VMID and asserts PORB low if DVDD or VMID are below the minimum
threshold Vpor_off.
On power up, the POR circuit requires AVDD to be present to operate. PORB is asserted low until
AVDD and DVDD and VMID are established. When AVDD, DVDD, and VMID have been established,
PORB is released high, all registers are in their default state and writes to the digital interface may
take place.
On power down, PORB is asserted low whenever DVDD or VMID drop below the minimum threshold
Vpor_off.
If AVDD is removed at any time, the internal Power on Reset circuit is powered down and PORB will
follow AVDD.
In most applications the time required for the device to release PORB high will be determined by the
charge time of the VMID node.

In a real application the designer is unlikely to have control of the relative power up sequence of
AVDD and DVDD. Using the POR circuit to monitor VMID ensures a reasonable delay between
applying power to the device and Device Ready.
Figure 9 and Figure 10 show typical power up scenarios in a real system. Both AVDD and DVDD
must be established and VMID must have reached the threshold Vporr before the device is ready
and can be written to. Any writes to the device before Device Ready will be ignored.
Figure 9 shows DVDD powering up before AVDD. Figure 10 shows AVDD powering up before
DVDD. In both cases, the time from applying power to Device Ready is dominated by the charge
time of VMID.
A 10uF cap is recommended for decoupling on VMID. The charge time for VMID will dominate the
time required for the device to become ready after power is applied. The time required for VMID to
reach the threshold is a function of the VMID resistor string and the decoupling capacitor. The
Resistor string has an typical equivalent resistance of 50kΩ (+/-20%). Assuming a 10uF capacitor,
the time required for VMID to reach threshold of 1V is approx 110ms.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION
WM8778 is a complete 2-channel DAC, 2-channel ADC audio CODEC, including digital interpolation
and decimation filters, multi-bit sigma delta stereo ADC, and switched capacitor multi-bit sigma delta
DACs with output smoothing filters. It is available in a single package and controlled by a 3 or 2-wire
serial interface or in a hardware mode.
An analogue bypass path option is available, to allow stereo analogue signals from the stereo inputs
to be sent to the stereo outputs. This allows a purely analogue input to analogue output high quality
signal path to be implemented if required.
The DAC and ADC have separate left/right clocks, bit clocks, master clocks and data I/Os. The
Audio Interface may be configured to operate in either master or slave mode. In Slave mode
ADCLRC, DACLRC, ADCBCLK and DACBCLK are all inputs. In Master mode ADCLRC, DACLRC,
ADCBCLK and DACBCLK are outputs.
The ADC has an analogue input PGA and a digital gain control, accessed by one register write. The
input PGA allows input signals to be gained up to +24dB and attenuated down to -21dB in 0.5dB
steps. The digital gain control allows attenuation from -21.5dB to -103dB in 0.5dB steps. This allows
the user maximum flexibility in the use of the ADC.
The DAC has its own digital volume control, which is adjustable between 0dB and -127.5dB in 0.5dB
steps. In addition a zero cross detect circuit is provided for digital volume controls. The digital
volume control detects a transition through the zero point before updating the volume. This
minimises audible clicks and ‘zipper’ noise as the gain values change.
The DAC output incorporates an input selector and mixer allowing a signal to be either switched into
the signal path in place of the DAC signal or mixed with the DAC signal before the analogue outputs.
Control of internal functionality of the device can be by 3-wire SPI compatible or 2-wire serial control
interface, or hardware mode, selected by the MODE pin. Both interfaces may be asynchronous to the
audio data interface as control data will be re-synchronised to the audio processing internally.
Operation using system clock of 128fs, 192fs, 256fs, 384fs, 512fs or 768fs is provided. In Slave
mode selection between clock rates is automatically controlled. In master mode the master clock to
sample rate ratio is set by control bits ADCRATE and DACRATE. ADC and DAC may run at different
rates. Master clock sample rates (fs) from less than 32kHz up to 192kHz are allowed, provided the
appropriate system clock is input.
The audio data interface supports right, left and I2S interface formats along with a highly flexible DSP
serial port interface.
AUDIO DATA SAMPLING RATES
In a typical digital audio system there is only one central clock source producing a reference clock to
which all audio data processing is synchronised. This clock is often referred to as the audio system’s
Master Clock. The WM8778 uses separate master clocks for the ADC and DAC. The external master
system clocks can be applied directly through the ADCMCLK and DACMCLK input pins with no
software configuration necessary. In a system where there are a number of possible sources for the
reference clock it is recommended that the clock source with the lowest jitter be used to optimise the
performance of the ADC and DAC.
The master clock for WM8778 supports DAC audio sampling rates from 128fs to 768fs and ADC
sampling rates from 256fs to 512fs, where fs is the audio sampling frequency (DACLRC or ADCLRC)
typically 32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz or 96kHz. The master clock is used to operate the digital filters and
the noise shaping circuits.
In Slave mode the WM8778 has a master detection circuit that automatically determines the
relationship between the master clock frequency and the sampling rate (to within +/- 32 system
clocks). If there is a greater than 32 clocks error the interface is disabled and maintains the output
level at the last sample. The master clock must be synchronised with ADCLRC/DACLRC, although
the WM8778 is tolerant of phase variations or jitter on this clock. Table 6 shows the typical master
clock frequency inputs for the WM8778.

WM8778
Production Data
The signal processing for the WM8778 typically operates at an oversampling rate of 128fs for both
ADC and DAC. The exception to this for the DAC is for operation with a 128/192fs system clock, e.g.
for 192kHz operation where the oversampling rate is 64fs. For ADC operation at 96kHz it is
recommended that the user set the ADCOSR bit. This changes the ADC signal processing
oversample rate to 64fs.

WM8778
Production Data
ADCBCLK and DACBCLK are also generated by the WM8778. The frequency of ADCBCLK and
DACBCLK depends on the mode of operation.
In 128/192fs modes (DACRATE=000 or 001) BCLK = MCLK/2. In 256/384/512fs modes
(ADCRATE/DACRATE=010 or 011 or 100) BCLK = MCLK/4. However if DSP mode is selected as
the audio interface mode then BCLK=MCLK. Note that DSP mode cannot be used in 128fs mode for
word lengths greater than 16 bits or in 192fs mode for word lengths greater than 24 bits.
ZERO DETECT
The WM8778 has a zero detect circuit for each DAC channel, which detects when 1024 consecutive
zero samples have been input. The two zero flag outputs (ZFLAGL and ZFLAGR) may be
programmed to output the zero detect signals (see Table 9) that may then be used to control external
muting circuits. A ‘1’ on ZFLAGL or ZFLAGR indicates a zero detect. The zero detect may also be
used to automatically enable the mute by setting IZD. The zero flag output may be disabled by
setting DZFM to 00.

POWERDOWN MODES
The WM8778 has powerdown control bits allowing specific parts of the WM8778 to be powered off
when not being used. Control bit ADCPD powers off the ADC. The ADC input PGAs will be powered
down only if ADCPD and AINPD are set. When AINPD is set the bypass path is automatically
disabled. The stereo DAC has a separate powerdown control bit, DACPD allowing the DAC to be
powered off when not in use. This also switches the analogue outputs VOUTL/R to VMIDDAC to
maintain a dc level on the output. The output mixer will be disabled when PDWN is set.
Setting AINPD, ADCPD and DACPD will powerdown everything except the references VMIDADC,
ADCREF and VMIDDAC. ADCREF and VMIDDAC can be powered down by setting PDWN,
VMIDADC is always active. Setting PDWN will override all other powerdown control bits. It is
recommended that AINPD, ADCPD and DACPD are set before setting PDWN. The default is for all
blocks to be enabled.
DIGITAL AUDIO INTERFACE
MASTER AND SLAVE MODES
The audio interface operates in either Slave or Master mode, selectable using the MS control bit. In
both Master and Slave modes DIN is always an input to the WM8778 and DOUT is always an output.
The default is Slave mode.
In Slave mode (MS=0) ADCLRC, DACLRC, ADCBCLK and DACBCLK are inputs to the WM8778
(Figure 11). DIN and DACLRC are sampled by the WM8778 on the rising edge of DACBCLK,
ADCLRC is sampled on the rising edge of ADCBCLK. ADC data is output on DOUT and changes on
the falling edge of ADCBCLK. By setting control bit BCLKINV the polarity of ADCBCLK and
DACBCLK may be reversed so that DIN and DACLRC are sampled on the falling edge of DACBCLK,
ADCLRC is sampled on the falling edge of ADCBCLK and DOUT changes on the rising edge of
ADCBCLK.

AUDIO INTERFACE FORMATS
Audio data is applied to the internal DAC filters or output from the ADC filters, via the Digital Audio
Interface. 5 popular interface formats are supported:
•
Left Justified mode
•
Right Justified mode
•
I2S mode
•
DSP mode A
•
DSP mode B
All 5 formats send the MSB first and support word lengths of 16, 20, 24 and 32 bits, with the
exception of 32 bit right justified mode, which is not supported.
In left justified, right justified and I2S modes, the digital audio interface receives DAC data on the DIN
input and outputs ADC data on DOUT. Audio Data for each stereo channel is time multiplexed with
ADCLRC/DACLRC indicating whether the left or right channel is present. ADCLRC/DACLRC is also
used as a timing reference to indicate the beginning or end of the data words.

In left justified, right justified and I S modes; the minimum number of BCLKs per DACLRC/ADCLRC
period is 2 times the selected word length. ADCLRC/DACLRC must be high for a minimum of word
length BCLKs and low for a minimum of word length BCLKs. Any mark to space ratio on
ADCLRC/DACLRC is acceptable provided the above requirements are met.
In DSP mode A or B, DACLRC is used as a frame sync signal to identify the MSB of the first word.
The minimum number of DACBCLKs per DACLRC period is 2 times the selected word length. Any
mark to space ratio is acceptable on DACLRC provided the rising edge is correctly positioned. The
ADC data may also be output in DSP mode A or B, with ADCLRC used as a frame sync to identify
the MSB of the first word. The minimum number of ADCBCLKs per ADCLRC period is 2 times the
selected word length.
LEFT JUSTIFIED MODE
In left justified mode, the MSB of DIN is sampled by the WM8778 on the first rising edge of
DACBCLK following a DACLRC transition. The MSB of the ADC data is output on DOUT and
changes on the same falling edge of ADCBCLK as ADCLRC and may be sampled on the rising edge
of ADCBCLK. ADCLRC and DACLRC are high during the left samples and low during the right
samples (Figure 13).

DSP MODES
In DSP/PCM mode, the left channel MSB is available on either the 1st (mode B) or 2nd (mode A)
rising edge of BCLK (selectable by LRP) following a rising edge of LRC. Right channel data
immediately follows left channel data. Depending on word length, BCLK frequency and sample rate,
there may be unused BCLK cycles between the LSB of the right channel data and the next sample.
In device master mode, the LRC output will resemble the frame pulse shown in Figure 16 and Figure
17. In device slave mode, Figure 18 and Figure 19, it is possible to use any length of frame pulse
less than 1/fs, providing the falling edge of the frame pulse occurs greater than one BCLK period
before the rising edge of the next frame pulse.

CONTROL INTERFACE OPERATION
The WM8778 is controlled by writing to registers through a serial control interface. A control word
consists of 16 bits. The first 7 bits (B15 to B9) are address bits that select which control register is
accessed. The remaining 9 bits (B8 to B0) are data bits, corresponding to the 9 bits in each control
register. The control interface can operate as either a 3-wire or 2-wire MPU interface. The MODE pin
selects the interface format, as shown in Table 10.

In 3-wire mode, every rising edge of CL clocks in one data bit from the DI pin. A rising edge on CE
latches in a complete control word consisting of the last 16 bits. The 3-wire interface protocol is
shown in Figure 20.

2-WIRE SERIAL CONTROL MODE
The WM8778 supports software control via a 2-wire serial bus. Many devices can be controlled by
the same bus, and each device has a unique 7-bit address (this is not the same as the 7-bit address
of each register in the WM8778).
The WM8778 operates as a slave device only. The controller indicates the start of data transfer with
a high to low transition on DI while CL remains high. This indicates that a device address and data
will follow. All devices on the 2-wire bus respond to the start condition and shift in the next eight bits
on DI (7-bit address + Read/Write bit, MSB first). If the device address received matches the address
of the WM8778 and the R/W bit is ‘0’, indicating a write, then the WM8778 responds by pulling DI low
on the next clock pulse (ACK). If the address is not recognised or the R/W bit is ‘1’, the WM8778
returns to the idle condition and wait for a new start condition and valid address.
Once the WM8778 has acknowledged a correct address, the controller sends the first byte of control
data (B15 to B8, i.e. the WM8778 register address plus the first bit of register data). The WM8778
then acknowledges the first data byte by pulling DI low for one clock pulse. The controller then sends
the second byte of control data (B7 to B0, i.e. the remaining 8 bits of register data), and the WM8778
acknowledges again by pulling DI low.

PD, Rev 4.2, July 2008

WM8778
Production Data
The transfer of data is complete when there is a low to high transition on DI while CL is high. After
receiving a complete address and data sequence the WM8778 returns to the idle state and waits for
another start condition. If a start or stop condition is detected out of sequence at any point during
data transfer (i.e. DI changes while CL is high), the device jumps to the idle condition.

Figure 22 Application and Release of Soft Mute
Figure 22 shows the application and release of DMUTE whilst a full amplitude sinusoid is being
played at 48kHz sampling rate. When DMUTE (lower trace) is asserted, the output (upper trace)
begins to decay exponentially from the DC level of the last input sample. The output will decay
towards VMID with a time constant of approximately 64 input samples. If DMUTE is applied to both
channels for 1024 or more input samples the DAC will be muted if IZD is set. When DMUTE is deasserted, the output will restart immediately from the current input sample.
Note that all other means of muting the DAC: setting the PL[3:0] bits to 0, setting the PDWN bit or
setting attenuation to 0 will cause much more abrupt muting of the output.

ADC GAIN CONTROL
The ADC has an analogue input PGA and digital gain control for each stereo channel. Both the
analogue and digital gains are adjusted by the same register, LAG for the left and RAG for the right.
The analogue PGA has a range of +24dB to -21dB in 0.5dB steps. The digital gain control allows
further attenuation (after the ADC) from -21.5dB to -103dB in 0.5dB steps. Table 14 shows how the

In addition a zero cross detect circuit is provided for the input PGA. When ZCLA/ZCRA is set with a
write, the gain will update only when the input signal approaches zero (midrail). This minimises
audible clicks and ‘zipper’ noise as the gain values change. A timeout clock is also provided which
will generate an update after a minimum of 131072 master clocks (= ~10.5ms with a master clock of
12.288MHz). The timeout clock may be disabled by setting TOD.

LIMITER / AUTOMATIC LEVEL CONTROL (ALC)
The WM8778 has an automatic pga gain control circuit, which can function as a peak limiter or as an
automatic level control (ALC). In peak limiter mode, a digital peak detector detects when the input
signal goes above a predefined level and will ramp the pga gain down to prevent the signal becoming
too large for the input range of the ADC. When the signal returns to a level below the threshold, the
pga gain is slowly returned to its starting level. The peak limiter cannot increase the pga gain above
its static level.

In ALC mode, the circuit aims to keep a constant recording volume irrespective of the input signal

if necessary.

The limiter function only operates in stereo, which means that the peak detector takes the maximum
of left and right channel peak values, and any new gain setting is applied to both left and right PGAs,
so that the stereo image is preserved. However, the ALC function can also be enabled on one
channel only. In this case, only one PGA is controlled by the ALC mechanism, while the other
channel runs independently with its PGA gain set through the control register.
When enabled, the threshold for the limiter or target level for the ALC is programmed using the LCT
control bits. This allows the threshold/target level to be programmed between -1dB and -16dB in 1dB
steps. Note that for the ALC, target levels of -1dB and -2dB give a threshold of -3dB. This is
because the ALC can give erroneous operation if the target level is set too high.

ATTACK AND DECAY TIMES
The limiter and ALC have different attack and decay times which determine their operation. However,
the attack and decay times are defined slightly differently for the limiter and for the ALC. DCY and
ATK control the decay and attack times, respectively.
Decay time (Gain Ramp-Up). When in ALC mode, this is defined as the time that it takes for the
PGA gain to ramp up across 90% of its range (e.g. from –21dB up to +20 dB). When in limiter mode,
it is defined as the time it takes for the gain to ramp up by 6dB.
The decay time can be programmed in power-of-two (2n) steps. For the ALC this gives times from
33.6ms, 67.2ms, 134.4ms etc. to 34.41s. For the limiter this gives times from 1.2ms, 2.4ms etc., up
to 1.2288s.
Attack time (Gain Ramp-Down) When in ALC mode, this is defined as the time that it takes for the
PGA gain to ramp down across 90% of its range (e.g. from +20dB down to -21dB gain). When in
limiter mode, it is defined as the time it takes for the gain to ramp down by 6dB.
The attack time can be programmed in power-of-two (2n) steps, from 8.4ms, 16.8ms, 33.6ms etc. to
8.6s for the ALC and from 250us, 500us, etc. up to 256ms.
The time it takes for the recording level to return to its target value or static gain value therefore
depends on both the attack/decay time and on the gain adjustment required. If the gain adjustment is
small, it will be shorter than the attack/decay time.

MAXIMUM GAIN (ALC ONLY) AND MAXIMUM ATTENUATION
To prevent low level signals being amplified too much by the ALC, the MAXGAIN register sets the
upper limit for the gain. This prevents low level noise being over-amplified. The MAXGAIN register
has no effect on the limiter operation.
The
register has different operation for the limiter and for the ALC. For the limiter it defines the maximum
attenuation below the static (user programmed) gain. For the ALC, it defines the lower limit for the

OVERLOAD DETECTOR (ALC ONLY)
To prevent clipping when a large signal occurs just after a period of quiet, the ALC circuit includes an
overload detector. If the ADC input signal exceeds 87.5% of full scale (–1.16dB), the PGA gain is
ramped down at the maximum attack rate (as when ATK = 0000), until the signal level falls below
87.5% of full scale. This function is automatically enabled whenever the ALC is enabled.
(Note: If ATK = 0000, then the overload detector makes no difference to the operation of the ALC. It
is designed to prevent clipping when long attack times are used).
NOISE GATE (ALC ONLY)
When the signal is very quiet and consists mainly of noise, the ALC function may cause “noise
pumping”, i.e. loud hissing noise during silence periods. The WM8778 has a noise gate function that
prevents noise pumping by comparing the signal level at the AINL1/2/3/4/5 and/or AINR1/2/3/4/5 pins
against a noise gate threshold, NGTH. The noise gate cuts in when:
•
Signal level at ADC [dB] < NGTH [dB] + PGA gain [dB] + Mic Boost gain [dB]
This is equivalent to:
•
Signal level at input pin [dB] < NGTH [dB]
When the noise gate is triggered, the PGA gain is held constant (preventing it from ramping up as it
would normally when the signal is quiet).
The table below summarises the noise gate control register. The NGTH control bits set the noise
gate threshold with respect to the ADC full-scale range. The threshold is adjusted in 6dB steps.
Levels at the extremes of the range may cause inappropriate operation, so care should be taken with
set–up of the function. Note that the noise gate only works in conjunction with the ALC function, and
always operates on the same channel(s) as the ALC (left, right, both, or none).

WM8778
Production Data
It is recommended that a low pass filter be applied to the output from the DAC for hi-fi applications.
Typically a second order filter is suitable and provides sufficient attenuation of high frequency
components (the unique low order, high bit count multi-bit sigma delta DAC structure used in
WM8778 produces much less high frequency output noise). This filter is typically also used to
provide the 2x gain needed to provide the standard 2Vrms output level from most consumer
equipment. Figure 34 shows a suitable post DAC filter circuit, with 2x gain. Alternative inverting filter
architectures might also be used with as good results.
