DESCRIPTION
The PCM1738 is a CMOS, monolithic, Integrated Circuit (IC) that includes stereo Digital-to-Analog Converters (DACs) and support circuitry in a small SSOP-28
package. The data converters utilize a newly developed
advanced segment DAC architecture to achieve excellent dynamic performance and improved tolerance to
clock jitter. The PCM1738 provides balanced current
outputs, allowing the user to optimize analog performance externally, and accepts industry standard audio
data formats with 16- to 24-bit data, providing easy
interfacing to audio DSP and decoder chips. Sampling
rates up to 200kHz are supported. The PCM1738 also
has two optional modes of operation: an external digitalfilter mode (for use with the DF1704, DF1706, and
PMD200), and a DSD decoder interface for SACD
playback applications. A full set of user-programmable
functions are accessible through a 4-wire serial control
port that supports register write and read functions.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Burr-Brown
recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling
and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation
to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may
be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric
changes could cause the device not to meet its published
specifications.

SYSTEM CLOCK AND RESET
FUNCTIONS
POWER-ON AND EXTERNAL RESET FUNCTIONS
The PCM1738 includes a power-on reset function (see
Figure 2). The system clock input at SCKI should be active
for at least one clock period prior to VDD = 2.0V. With the
system clock active, and VDD > 2.0V, the power-on reset
function will be enabled. The initialization sequence requires 1024 system clocks from the time VDD > 2.0V. After
the initialization period, the PCM1738 will be set to its reset
default state, as described in the Mode Control Register
section of this data sheet.
The PCM1738 also includes an external reset capability
using the RST input (pin 1). This allows an external controller or master reset circuit to force the PCM1738 to initialize
to its reset default state.
See Figure 3 for external reset operation and timing. The
RST pin is set to a logic “0” for a minimum of 20ns. The
RST pin is then set to a logic “1” state that starts the
initialization sequence that requires 1024 system clock periods. After the initialization sequence is complete, the
PCM1738 will be set to its reset default state, as described
in the Mode Control Register section of this data sheet.
The external reset is especially useful in applications where
there is a delay between the PCM1738 power-up and system
clock activation. In this case, the RST pin should be held at
a logic “0” level until the system clock has been activated.
The RST pin may then be set to a logic “1” state to start the
initialization sequence.
SYSTEM CLOCK INPUT
The PCM1738 requires a system clock for operating the
digital interpolation filters and advanced segment DAC
modulators. The system clock is applied at the SCKI input
(pin 7). The PCM1738 has a system-clock detection circuit
that automatically senses if the system clock is operating at
128fS to 768fS. Table I shows examples of system-clock
frequencies for common audio sampling rates.
Figure 1 shows the timing requirements for the system clock
input. For optimal performance, it is important to use a clock
source with low phase jitter and noise. The PLL1700 multiclock generator is an excellent choice for providing the
PCM1738 system clock.
SYSTEM CLOCK OUTPUT
A buffered version of the system clock input is available at
the SCKO output (pin 10). SCKO can operate at either full
(fSCKI) or half (fSCKI/2) rate. The SCKO output frequency
may be programmed using the CLKD bit of Control Register 19. The SCKO output pin can also be enabled or disabled
using the CLKE bit of Control Register 19. The default is
SCKO enabled.

AUDIO DATA INTERFACE
AUDIO SERIAL INTERFACE
The audio serial interface for the PCM1738 is comprised of
a 3-wire synchronous serial port. It includes LRCK (pin 4),
BCK (pin 6), and DATA (pin 5). BCK is the serial audio bit
clock, used to clock the serial data present on DATA into the
audio interface’s serial shift register. Serial data is clocked
into the PCM1738 on the rising edge of BCK. LRCK is the
serial audio left/right word clock, used to latch serial data
into the serial audio interface’s internal registers.
LRCK should be synchronous to the system clock. In the
event these clocks are not synchronized, the PCM1738 can
compensate for the phase difference internally. If the phase
difference between LRCK and SCKI is greater than six bit
clocks (BCK), the synchronization is performed internally.
While the synchronization is processing, the analog output is
12
forced to the bipolar zero level. The synchronization typically occurs in less than one cycle of LRCK.
Ideally, it is recommended that LRCK and BCK be derived
from the system clock input or output, SCKI or SCKO. The
left/right clock (LRCK) is operated at the sampling frequency, fS.
AUDIO DATA FORMATS AND TIMING
The PCM1738 supports industry-standard audio data formats,
including Standard Right-Justified, I2S, and Left-Justified. The
data formats are shown in Figure 4. Data formats are selected
using the format bits, FMT [2:0], in Control Register 18. The
default data format is 16-bit Standard. All formats require
Binary Two’s Complement, MSB-first audio data. Figure 5
shows a detailed timing diagram for the serial audio interface.

FIGURE 6. Serial Control Format.
EXTERNAL DIGITAL FILTER
INTERFACE AND TIMING
The PCM1738 supports an external digital-filter interface
comprised of a 4-wire synchronous serial port that allows
the use of an external digital filter. External filters include
the DF1704 and DF1706 from Texas Instruments, the
Pacific Microsonics PMD200, or a programmable digital
signal processor.
The 4-wire interface includes WCK as the word clock, BCK as
the bit clock, DATAL as the L-channel data, and DATAR as
the R-channel data. The external digital-filter interface is selected using the DFTH bit of Control Register 20, which
functions to bypass the internal digital-filter portion of the
PCM1738. The 4-wire serial port is assigned to WDCK (pin 4),
BCK (pin 6), DATAL (pin 5), and DATAR (pin 15).
14
DSD (DIRECT STREAM DIGITAL) FORMAT
INTERFACE AND TIMING
The PCM1738 supports a DSD format interface operation
that includes out-of-band noise filtering using an internal
Analog FIR filter. For DSD operation, pin 7 is redefined as
BCK, which operates at 64 x 44.1kHz; pin 5 is redefined as
DATAL (left-channel audio data), and pin 15 becomes
DATAR (right-channel audio data). Pins 4 and 6 must be
forced LOW in DSD mode. This configuration allows for
direct interface to a DSD decoder for SACD applications.
Detailed information for the DSD mode is provided in the
DSD Mode Operation section of this data sheet.
PCM1738
SBAS174B
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONS
ZERO DETECT
When the PCM1738 detects that the audio input data in the
L-channel or R-channel is continuously zero for 1024fS, the
PCM1738 sets ZEROL (pin 2) or ZEROR (pin 3) to HIGH.
Setting the INZD bit of mode register 19 can set both analog
outputs to the bipolar zero level when the input data of both
channels are zero.
SOFT MUTE
The PCM1738 supports mute operation by both hardware
and software control. When MUTE (pin 15) is set to HIGH,
both analog outputs are turned to the bipolar zero level.
When the MUTE bit in mode register 18 is set to “1”, both
analog outputs are also turned to the bipolar zero level. The
speed to turn to the bipolar zero level is set by the ATS0 and
ATS1 bits in mode register 19.
SERIAL CONTROL INTERFACE
The serial control interface is a 4-wire synchronous serial
port that operates asynchronously to the serial audio interface and the system clock (SCKI). The serial control interface is utilized to program the on-chip mode registers. The
control interface includes MDO (pin 11), MDI (pin 12), MC
(pin 13), and CS (pin 14). MDO is the serial data output,
used to read back the values of the mode registers; MDI is
the serial data input, used to program the mode registers;
MC is the serial bit clock, used to shift data in and out of the
control port; and CS is the mode control enable, used to
enable the internal mode register access. Figures 6 and 7
show the format and timing for the serial control interface.

ATL/R[7:0]
Digital Attenuation Level Setting
These bits are Read/Write.
Default Value: 1111 1111B
Each DAC output has a digital attenuator associated with it. The attenuator may be set from 0db to –120dB,
in 0.5dB steps. Alternatively, the attenuator may be set to infinite attenuation (or mute).
The attenuation data for each channel can be set individually. However, the data load control (ATLD bit of
Control Register 18) is common to both attenuators. ATLD must be set to “1” in order to change an
attenuator’s setting. The attenuation level may be set using the following formula:
Attenuation Level (dB) = 0.5dB • (ATL/R[7:0]DEC – 255)
Where: ATL/R[7:0]DEC = 0 through 255
For: ATL/R[7:0]DEC = 0 through 14, the attenuator is set to infinite attenuation.
The following table shows attenuator levels for various settings.

ANALOG OUTPUT LEVEL AND I/V CONVERTER
The signal level of the DAC current output pins (IOUTL+,
IOUTL–, IOUTR+, and IOUTR–) is 2.48mA (p-p) at 0dB (Full
Scale). The voltage output of the I/V converter is given by
the following equation:
VOUT = 2.48mApp • RF
(1)
Here, Rf is the feedback resistor in the I/V (current-tovoltage) conversion circuit, R11, R12, R21, and R22 on a
typical application circuit. The common level of the I/V
conversion circuit must be the same as the common level of
DAC IOUT that is given by the VCOM2 reference voltage,
+2.5V DC. The non-inverting inputs of the op amps shown
in the I/V circuits are connected to VCOM2 to provide the
common bias voltage.
Op Amp for I/V Converter Circuit
The OPA627BP/BM, or 5534 type op amp, is recommended
for the I/V conversion circuit to obtain specified audio
performance. Dynamic performance, such as gain bandwidth, settling time, and slew rate of the op amp creates
audio dynamic performance at the I/V section. Input noise
specification of the op amp should be considered to obtain
120dB S/N ratio.
PCM1738
SBAS174B
Analog Gain by Balanced Amplifier
The I/V converters are followed by balanced amplifier
stages that sum the differential signals for each channel,
creating a single-ended voltage output. In addition, the
balanced amplifiers provide a second-order, low-pass filter
function that band limits the audio output signal. The cutoff
frequency and gain is given by external R and C component
values. In the case of Figure 9, the cutoff frequency is 45kHz
with a gain of 1. The output voltage for each channel is 6.2
Vp-p, or 2.2Vrms.
REFERENCE CURRENT RESISTOR
As shown in the analog output application circuit, marked
R1 on Figure 9, there is a resistor connected from IREF (pin
21) to the analog ground, designated as R1. This resistor sets
the current for the internal reference circuit. The value of R1
must be 16k , 1% in order to match the specified gain
error shown in the Specifications table.

APPLICATIONS FOR INTERFACING WITH THE
EXTERNAL DIGITAL FILTER PART
For some applications, it may be desirable to use an external
digital filter to perform the interpolation function, as it may
provide improved stopband attenuation or other special features not available with the PCM1738’s internal digital filter.
The PCM1738 supports the use of an external digital filter,
including:
• The DF1704 and DF1706 from Texas Instruments.
• Pacific Microsonics PMD100/200 HDCD Filter/Decoder ICs.
• Programmable Digital Signal Processors.
The external digital-filter application mode is available by
programming the following bits in the corresponding control
registers:
DFTH = 1 (Register 20)
DME = 0 (Register 18)
24
The pins used to provide the serial interface for the external
digital filter are shown in the application diagram of Figure 10.
The Word (WDCK) and Bit (BCK) clock signals, as well as
the audio data inputs (DATAL and DATAR) must be operated
at 8x or 4x the original sampling frequency at the input of the
digital filter.
SYSTEM CLOCK (SCKI) AND INTERFACE TIMING
The PCM1738, in external digital filter application, allows
any system-clock frequency synchronized with BCK and
WDCK. The system clock may be phase free with BCK and
WDCK. See Figure 17 for interface timing among WDCK,
BCK, DATAL, and DATAR.
AUDIO FORMAT
In external Digital-Filter Interface mode, the PCM1738
supports a right-justified audio format interface including
16-, 20-, and 24-bit audio data (see Figure 16) that should be
selected by FMT[2:0] of Control Register 18.

FEATURES
This mode is utilized for interfacing directly to a DSD
decoder, found in Super Audio CD (SACD) applications.
DSD Mode provides a low-pass filtering function to convert
the 1-bit oversampled data stream to the analog domain. The
filtering is provided using an Analog FIR filter structure.
Four FIR responses are available and may be selected via the
serial control interface. Refer to the Typical Performance
Curves section of this data sheet for Analog FIR plots. See
Figures 1 and 2 for interface timing and specification, and
Figures 17 and 18 for timing and interface specification in
DSD mode.

the sampling frequency. Generally, N is 64 in DSD application.
The interface timing between the bit clock, DATAL, and DATAR is required to meet the same setup and hold time

FIGURE 13. Architecture of Advanced Segment DAC.
The PCM1738 utilizes the newly developed Advanced Segment DAC architecture to achieve excellent dynamic performance and improved tolerance to clock jitter. The PCM1738
provides balanced current outputs, allowing the user to
optimize analog performance externally. The structure of the
Advanced Segment DAC architecture is shown in Figure 13.
Digital input data from the digital interpolation filter is split
into six upper bits and 18 lower bits. The upper six bits are
converted to ICOB (Inverted Complementary Offset Binary)
code. The lower 18 bits associated with the MSB are
processed by fifth-level, third-order, delta-sigma modulators
operated at 64fS by default conditions. The first level of the
modulator is equivalent to 1LSB of the above code con-
PCM1738
SBAS174B
verter. The data groups processed in the ICOB converter and
the third-order delta-sigma modulator are summed together
to create up to 67 levels of digital code that is then processed
by the DWA (Data Weighted Averaging) to reduce noise
produced by element mismatch. The output data from the
DWA block is then converted to an analog output using a
differential current segment DAC.
To learn more details regarding the Advanced Segment
DAC architecture, please refer to the paper presented at the
109th AES Convention entitled “A 117db, D-Range, Current-mode, Multi-Bit, Audio DAC for PCM and DSD Audio
Playback” by Nakao, Terasawa, Aoyagi, Terada, and
Hamasaki of Burr-Brown Japan (now part of Texas Instruments).
29
Separate power supplies are recommended for the digital
and analog sections of the board. This prevents the switching
noise present on the digital supply from contaminating the
analog power supply and degrading the dynamic performance of the DACs. In cases where a common +5V supply
must be used for the analog and digital sections, an inductance (RF choke, ferrite bead) should be placed between the
analog and digital +5V supply connections to avoid coupling
of the digital switching noise into the analog circuitry.
Figure 15 shows the recommended approach for singlesupply applications.
CONSIDERATIONS FOR
APPLICATIONS CIRCUITS
PCB LAYOUT GUIDELINES
A typical PCB floor plan for the PCM1738 is shown in
Figure 14. A ground plane is recommended, with the analog
and digital sections being isolated from one another using a
split or cut in the circuit board. The PCM1738 should be
oriented with the digital I/O pins facing the ground plane
split/cut to allow for short, direct connections to the digital
audio interface and control signals originating from the
digital section of the board.

BYPASS AND DECOUPLING CAPACITOR
REQUIREMENTS
Various sized decoupling capacitors can be used, with no
special tolerances being required. All capacitors should be
located as close as physically possible to the power supply
and reference pins of the PCM1738 to reduce noise pickup
from surrounding circuitry. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors that are designed for hi-fi audio applications are recommended for larger values, while metal-film or monolithic
ceramic capacitors are recommended for smaller values.
I/V SECTION
I/V conversion, using the circuit shown in Figure 9, achieves
data-sheet performance (see Figure 9). To obtain 0.0005%
THD+N, 117dB signal-to-noise ratio audio performance, THD+N
and input noise performance an op amp IC must be considered.
Input noise of the op amp directly effects the output noise level
of the application.
PCM1738
SBAS174B
All components of the I/V section should be located physically close to the PCM1738 current outputs. All connections
should be made as short as possible to eliminate pickup of
radiated noise.
POST LOW-PASS FILTER DESIGN
The out-of-band noise level and sampling spectrum level are
much lower than typical delta-sigma type DACs, due to the
combination of a high-performance digital filer and the
advanced segment DAC architecture. The use of a secondor third-order filter is recommended for the post low-pass
filter (see Figure 9 for a second-order filter) following the I/
V conversion stage. The cutoff frequency of the post LPF is
dependent upon the application, given the variety of sampling rates supported by the CD-DA, DVD-M, DVD-A, and
SACD systems.
