TABLE I. System Clock Frequencies for Common Sampling Frequencies. The system clock may be supplied from an external master clock or generated using the on-chip crystal oscillator circuit. Figure 1 shows the required connections for external and crystal clock operation. The system clock must operate at 512 times the sampling frequency, fS, with sampling frequencies from 7.2kHz to 26kHz. This gives an effective system clock frequency range of 3.6864MHz to 13.312MHz. For either case, XTO (pin 16) should be left open. The system clock source should be free of noise and exhibit low phase jitter in order to obtain optimal dynamic performance from the PCM3501. Figure 2 shows the system clock timing requirements associated with an external master clock. Table I shows system clock frequencies for common sampling frequencies. For crystal oscillator operation, a crystal is connected between XTI (pin 17) and XTO (pin 16), along with the necessary load capacitors (10pF to 33pF per pin, as shown in Figure 1). A fundamental-mode, parallel resonant crystal is required. For external clock operation, XTI (pin 17) or SCKIO (pin 15) is driven by a master clock source. If SCKIO is used as the system clock input, then XTI must be connected to ground.

External System Clock Timing Requirements. ® PCM3501 12 tCLKIL PCM3501 CRYSTAL RESONATOR CONNECTION PDWN causes the reset initialization sequence to start. During the initialization sequence, the DAC output is forced to AGND, and the ADC output is forced to a high impedance state. After the initialization sequence has completed, the DAC and ADC outputs experience a delay before they output a valid signal or data. Refer to Figures 4 and 5 for external reset and post-reset delay timing. Reset and Power Down The PCM3501 supports power-on reset, external reset, and power-down operations. Power-on reset is performed by internal circuitry automatically at power up, while the external reset is initiated using the PDWN input (pin 20). Power-on reset occurs when power and system clock are initially applied to the PCM3501. The internal reset circuitry requires that the system clock be active at power up, with at least three system clock cycles occurring prior to VDD = 2.2V. When VDD exceeds 2.2V, the power-on reset comparator enables the initialization sequence, which requires 1024 system clock periods for completion. During the initialization sequence, the DAC output is forced to AGND, and the ADC output is forced to a high impedance state. After the initialization sequence has completed, the DAC and ADC outputs experience a delay before they output a valid signal or data. Refer to Figures 3 and 5 for power-on reset and post-reset delay timing. External reset is performed by first setting PDWN = ‘0’ and then setting PDWN = ‘1’. The LOW to HIGH transition on VDD Power-down mode is enabled by setting PDWN = ‘0’. During power-down mode, minimum current is drawn when the system clock is removed, resulting in 60µA (typical) power supply current. The PDWN input includes an internal pull-down resistor, which places the PCM3501 in powerdown mode at power-up if the PDWN pin is left unconnected. Ideally, the PDWN input should be driven by active logic in order to control reset and power-down operation. If the PDWN pin is to be unused in the system application, it should be connected to VDD to enable normal operation. By setting PDWN = ‘1’ when exiting power-down mode, the PCM3501 will initiate an external reset as described earlier in this section. 2.4V 2.2V 2.0V Reset Reset Removal Internal Reset 1024 System Clock Periods System Clock FIGURE 3.

Data for DIN is clocked into the serial interface on the rising edge of BCK, while data for DOUT is clocked out of the serial interface on the falling edge of BCK. The serial interface of the PCM3501 is a 4-wire synchronous serial port. It includes FS (pin 9), BCK (pin 8), DIN (pin 10) and DOUT (pin 11). FS is the frame synchronization clock, BCK is the serial bit or shift clock, DIN is the serial data input for the DAC, and DOUT is the serial data output for the ADC. Figure 6 shows the serial interface format for the PCM3501. The serial data for DIN and DOUT must be in Binary Two’s Complement, MSB-first format. Figures 7 and 8 show the timing specifications for the serial interface when used in Slave and Master Modes. The frame sync, FS, operates at the sampling frequency (fS).

Table II shows mode and pin settings corresponding to the M/S input selection. Figure 9 shows connections for Slave and Master mode operation. In Slave Mode, the FS and BCK pins are inputs to the PCM3501. Both FS and BCK should be derived from the system clock signal (XTI or SCKIO) to ensure proper synchronization. Slave Mode is best suited for applications where the DSP or controller is capable of generating the FS, BCK, and system clocks using an on-chip serial port and/or timing generator.

Master/Slave Mode Selection. ® 15 PCM3501 interface bus. This is useful for system applications that require multiple modem or voice channels. Figure 11 shows examples of Time Slot Mode connections. SYNCHRONIZATION REQUIREMENTS The PCM3501 requires that FS and BCK be synchronous with the system clock. Internal circuitry is included to detect a loss of synchronization between FS and the system clock input. If the phase relationship between FS and the system clock varies more than ± 1.5 BCK periods, the PCM3501 will detect a loss of synchronization. Upon detection, the DAC output is forced to 0.5VCC and the DOUT pin is forced to a high impedance state. This occurs within one sampling clock (FS) period of initial detection. Figure 10 shows the loss of synchronization operation and the DAC and ADC output delays associated with it. Time Slot Mode defines a 64-bit long frame, composed of four time slots. Each slot is 16 bits long and corresponds to one of four CODECs. The FS pin on the first PCM3501 (CODEC A, Slot 0) is used as the master frame sync, and operates at the sampling frequency, fS. The bit clock, BCK, operates at 64fS. DIN and DOUT of each CODEC also operate at 64fS. Figure 12 shows the operation of the Time Slot Mode. Time Slot operation is enabled or disabled using the TSC input (pin 7). The state of the TSC pin is updated at poweron reset, or on the rising edge of PWDN input (if using external reset or power-down mode). A forced reset is required when changing from Slave to Master Mode, or visa versa, in real time.

This capacitor should be located as close as possible to pin 1. BASIC CIRCUIT CONNECTIONS The basic connection diagram for the PCM3501 is shown in Figure 16. Included are the required power supply bypass and reference decoupling capacitors. The DAC output, VOUT, and the ADC input, VIN, should be AC-coupled to external circuitry. The VCOM voltage is typically equal to VCC/2, and may be used to bias external input and output circuitry. However, since the VCOM pin is not a buffered output, it must drive a high impedance load to avoid excessive loading. Buffering the VCOM pin with an external op amp configured as a voltage follower is recommended when driving multiple bias nodes. Figure 17 shows an example of using VCOM with external circuitry.

They are brought out strictly for decoupling purposes. VREF1 and VREF2 are not to be used to bias external circuits. A 1µF to 10µF aluminum electrolytic or tantalum capacitor is recommended for decoupling on each pin. These capacitors should be located as close as possible to pins 2 and 3. by a split ground plane, with the PCM3501 positioned entirely over the analog section of the board. The AGNDs (pins 5, 20, and 23) and DGND (pin 14) are connected directly to the analog ground plane. The power supply pins, VCC (pin 13) and VDD (pin 24), are routed directly to the +2.7V to +3.6V analog power supply using wide copper traces (100 mils or wider recommended) or a power plane. Power supply bypass and reference decoupling capacitors are shown located as close as possible to the PCM3501. Power Supplies and Grounding VCC (pin 24) and VDD (pin 13) should be connected directly to the +2.7V to +3.6V analog power supply, as shown in Figure 16. The AGNDs (pins 5, 21, and 23) and DGND (pin 14) should be connected directly to the analog ground. Power supply bypass capacitors should be located as close to the power supply pins as possible in order to ensure a low impedance connection. A combination of a 10µF aluminum electrolytic or tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor is recommended for both VCC and VDD. The PCM3501 is oriented so that the digital pins are facing the ground plane split. Digital connections should be made as short and direct as possible to limit high frequency radiation and coupling. Series resistors (from 20Ω to 100Ω) may be put in series with the system clock, FS, BCK, and FSO lines to reduce or eliminate overshoot on clock edges, further reducing radiated emissions. The split ground plane should be connected at one point by a trace, wire, or ferrite bead. Often the board will be designed to have several jumper points for the common ground connection, so that the best performance can be derived through experimentation. VDD and VCC should not be connected to separate digital and analog power supplies. This can lead to an SCR latch-up condition, which can cause either degraded device performance or catastrophic failures. An alternative technique, using a single power supply or battery, is shown in Figure 19. This technique is more suitable for portable applications.

Generally, a 2ndorder or better low-pass circuit will be required, with the cut-off frequency set to fS/2 or less. The PCM3501’s DAC uses delta-sigma conversion techniques. It uses oversampling and noise shaping to improve in-band (f = fS/2) signal-to-noise performance at the expense of increased out-of-band noise. The DAC output must be low-pass filtered to attenuate the out-of-band noise to a reasonable level. Burr-Brown Application Bulletin AB-034 provides information for designing both Multiple Feedback and SallenKey active filter circuits using software available from BurrBrown’s web site. Another excellent reference for both passive and active filter design is the “Electronic Filter Design Handbook, Third Edition” by Williams and Taylor, published by McGraw-Hill. The PCM3501 includes a low-pass filter in the on-chip output amplifier circuit. The frequency response for this filter is shown in Figure 20. Although this filter helps to lower the out-of-band noise, it is not adequate for many applications. This is especially true for applications where the sampling frequency is below 16kHz, since the out-ofband noise above fS/2 is in the audio spectrum. An external filter circuit, either passive or active, is required to provide additional attenuation of the out-of-band noise. The lowpass filter order will be dependent upon the out-of-band ON-CHIP ANALOG FRONT END FOR THE ADC The PCM3501 A/D converter includes a fully differential input delta-sigma modulator. In order to simplify external circuitry, an analog front end (AFE) circuit has been included on the PCM3501 just prior to the modulator. The AFE circuit is shown in Figure 21.

On-Chip AFE Circuit for the ADC. ® PCM3501 22 Delta-Sigma Modulator 10k 100k THEORY OF OPERATION The AFE circuit consists of a buffer/filter for each input of the converter. The frequency response for the filter is shown in Figure 22. Since the delta-sigma modulator oversamples the input at 64fS, the anti-alias filter requirements are relaxed, with only a single-pole filter being required. If an application requires further band limiting of the input signal, a simple RC filter at the inputs can be used, as shown in Figure 23. ADC SECTION The PCM3501 A/D converter consists of two reference circuits, differential input buffer, a fully differential 5thorder delta-sigma modulator, a decimation filter (including digital high pass), and a serial interface circuit. The block diagram on the front page of this data sheet illustrates the architecture of the ADC section, Figure 21 shows the input buffers, and Figure 24 illustrates the architecture of the 5thorder delta-sigma modulator and transfer functions. An internal reference circuit with three external capacitors provides all reference voltages which are required by the ADC, which defines the full-scale range for the converter. The internal input buffers save the design, space and extra parts needed for external circuitry required by many deltasigma converters. The internal full-differential signal processing architecture provides a wide dynamic range and excellent power supply rejection performance. The input signal is sampled at a 64x oversampling rate, eliminating the need for a sample-and-hold circuit, and simplifying antialias filtering requirements.

Simplified 5th-Order Delta-Sigma Modulator. ® 23 PCM3501 shaper consists of five integrators which use a switchedcapacitor topology, a comparator, and a feedback loop consisting of a one-bit DAC. The delta-sigma modulator shapes the quantization noise, shifting it out of the audio band in the frequency domain. The high order of the modulator enables it to randomize the modulator outputs, reducing idle tone levels. DAC SECTION The delta-sigma DAC section of PCM3501 is based on a 5level amplitude quantizer and a 3rd-order noise shaper. This section converts the oversampled input data to 5-level deltasigma format. A block diagram of the 5-level delta-sigma modulator is shown in Figure 25. This 5-level delta-sigma modulator has the advantage of stability and clock jitter sensitivity over the typical one-bit (2 level) delta-sigma modulator. The combined oversampling rate of the deltasigma modulator and the internal 8x interpolation filter is 64fS for a 512fS system clock. The 64fS one-bit data stream from the modulator is converted to 1fS, 16-bit data words by the decimation filter, which also acts as a low-pass filter to remove the shaped quantization noise. The DC components can be removed by a high-pass filter function contained within the decimation filter. + + In 8fS 18-Bit + Z–1 – + + + Z–1 – + + 5-level Quantizer + 4 3 Out 2 1 64fS 0 FIGURE 25. 5-Level Delta-Sigma Modulator Block Digram. ® PCM3501 24 Z–1
