Note 1: Temp = 25°C, VA = VD = REF+ = 5V, Fs = 48kHz, FINPUT = 1kHz, Bandwidth = 20Hz-20kHz.
Note 2: Full scale input scales linearly with REF potential ([REF+]-[REF-]).
Note 3: REF current scales linearly with Fs.
Note 4: Temp = 25°C, VA = VD = REF+ = 5V, Fs = 48kHz, FINPUT = 1kHz.
Note 5: Passband, stopband, and highpass frequencies scale with Fs.
Note 6: Passband is compensated for an external single-pole 80kHz lowpass filter at analog inputs (0.26dB
at 20kHz). Compensation scales with Fs.

Architecture Details
Differential Analog Inputs
The AL1101 inputs are self-biased to MID potential. Input signals larger than maximum levels
(±4V differential, or +0.5V to +4.5V at the pin) and smaller than supply voltages are outputlimited to maximum positive and negative levels in the digital section (7FFFFFH and 800000H
respectively).
The digital section of the AL1101 compensates for the passband amplitude deviation of an
external single-pole 80kHz anti-alias filter (@ Fs=48k, scaling with Fs). To remove highfrequency noise at the differential inputs, the capacitor between the differential inputs should be
located as close as possible to the input pins.

*Note: Position capacitor as close to pins as possible.
Film or high quality ceramic capacitor suggested.
If decreasing component count is an important factor, and a decrease in performance
specifications is acceptable, the AL1101 inputs may be driven unbalanced with a simple passive
component conditioning circuit. The lowpass filter has fc = 72kHz.
Unbalanced Input Conditioning Circuit
*Note: Position capacitor as close to pins as possible.
Film or high quality ceramic capacitor suggested.
The AL1101 can properly receive input logical “1” voltages of 0.55VD. This means the AL1101
can interface directly with logic signals supplied from 3.3V systems. No special interface
circuitry is required.

Serial Output Interface
The AL1101 presents its two’s complement serial output data in a standard MSB-first format.
Two bitrates are provided: The 32-bits-per-frame rate (FORMAT low) is suitable for use in
systems where 256*Fs master clocks are present. The 24-bits-per-frame rate (FORMAT high) is
convenient when interfacing with circuits where 384*Fs master clocks are present.
The output sample period is defined between rising edges of wordclock (WDCLK) input.
Nominally, this is a 50% duty-cycle clock at frequency Fs, but it can be a pulse with
Ts/256 < Pulse Width < (255/256)*Ts;
Ts=1/Fs.
Left channel data output starts when WDCLK rises, and right channel data output starts Ts/2
seconds later (on falling edge of WDCLK if WDCLK has a 50% duty cycle).
The serial bits are output on the rising edge of an internally generated bitclock (whose rising
edge is aligned with rising edge of WDCLK) that runs at 64*Fs when FORMAT is low (32-bits-perframe), or 48*Fs when FORMAT is high (24-bits-per-frame). The data is valid ±100ns from the
center of these bit-frames.

Digital High Pass Output Filter
The AL1101 has an internal 2.5Hz single pole digital filter, which removes any offset present in
the internal amplifiers and prevents DC codes from appearing at the data outputs. The response
of the filter is -0.067dB at 20Hz.
Clock Generator and PLL
The AL1101 contains an internal PLL that locks to the rising edge of WDCLK and produces all
necessary high frequency clocks and timing signals to operate the device. This high quality PLL
will reject any high-frequency jitter on the incoming wordclock (jitter rejection corner at
approximately 4kHz).
The PLL allows a simplified user interface and eliminates the need of running high frequency
clocks to the part on PCB traces. This reduces unwanted RF noise and coupling problems that
can occur when such clock signals are required on input pins for a device.
Reference and MID
The differential potential between the REF+ and REF- pins (connected to +5V and GND
respectively) determines the amount of charge that is added to or removed from the modulator’s
first stage during each input sample period (64*Fs). It is very important that REF+ is well
bypassed to REF- (0.1µF ceramic capacitor as close as possible to the pins) to remove the
unwanted effects of high frequency noise.
The MID potential is developed on-chip (VA/2 Volts) and is used to bias the internal amplifiers in
the modulator, and to provide the reference point which determines the polarity of the modulator
output. It requires a 0.1µF bypass capacitor to GND at the pin. No load current should be
taken from the MID pin.
Power Supplies and Ground
A single low-impedance +5V supply is all that is required to achieve the specified performance.
A +5V supply plane on the PCB is recommended if possible. VA and VD may be directly
connected to +5V, and REF+ should be isolated with a 1kΩ resistor to +5V.
A single low impedance ground plane can be used for all GND connections, simplifying PCB
layout. Each supply pin should be bypassed to GND with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor positioned
as close to the pins as possible.
