AK4704
2ch 24bit DAC with AV SCART switch
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AK4704 offers the ideal features for digital set-top-box systems. Using AKM's multi-bit architecture
for its modulator, the AK4704 delivers a wide dynamic range while preserving linearity for improved
THD+N performance. The AK4704 integrates a combination of SCF and CTF filters, removing the need
for high cost external filters and increasing performance for systems with excessive clock jitter. The
AK4704 also including the audio switches, volumes, video switches, video filters, etc. designed primarily
for digital set-top-box systems. The AK4704 is offered in a space saving 48-pin LQFP package.

„ Full Power-down Mode
The AK4704 should be reset once by bringing PDN= ”L” upon power-up.
PDN pin: Power down pin
“H”: Normal operation
“L”: Device power down.
„ Auto Startup Mode
After when the PDN pin is set to “H”, the AK4704 is in the auto startup mode. In this mode, all blocks except for the video
detection circuit are powered down. Once the video detection circuit detects video signal from TVVIN pin or VCRVIN
pin, the AK4704 goes to the stand-by mode automatically and sends “H” pulse via INT pin. To exit the auto startup mode,
set the AUTO bit to “0”.
AUTO bit (00H D3): Auto startup bit
“1”: Auto startup enable (default).
“0”: Auto startup disable (Manual startup).
„ DAC Power-down Mode
The internal DAC block can be powered-down and switched to 1Vrms analog input mode. When DAPD bit =“1”, the
zero-cross detection and offset calibration does not work.
DAPD bit (00H D2): DAC power-down bit.
“1”: DAC power-down. Analog-input mode.
#39 pin: MCLK -> (NC)
#40 pin: BICK -> DACR. Rch analog input.
#41 pin: SDTI -> (NC)
#42 pin: LRCK -> DACL. Lch analog input.
“0”: DAC operation. (default)
„ Standby Mode
When the AUTO bit = MUTE bit = “0” and the STBY bit = “1”, the AK4704 is forced into TV-VCR loop through mode.
In this mode, the sources of TVOUTL/R and MONOOUT pins are fixed to VCRINL/R pins; the sources of VCROUTL/R
are fixed to TVINL/R pins respectively. The gain of volume#1 is fixed to 0dB. All register values themselves are NOT
changed by STBY bit = “1”.
STBY bit (00H D0): Standby bit.
“1”: Standby mode. (default)
“0”: Normal operation.
„ Mute Mode (Bias-off Mode. 00H: D1)
When the MUTE bit = “1”, the bias voltage on the audio output goes to GND level. Bringing MUTE bit to “0” changes
this bias voltage smoothly from GND to VP/2 by 2sec(typ.). This removes the huge click noise related the sudden change
of bias voltage at power-on. The change of MUTE bit from “1” to “0” also makes smooth transient from VP/2 to GND by
2sec(typ). This removes the huge click noise related the sudden change of bias voltage at power-off.
MUTE bit: Bias-off bit.
“1”: Set the audio bias to GND. (default)
“0”: Normal operation
„ Normal Operation Mode
To use the DAC or change analog switches, set the AUTO bit, DAPD bit, MUTE bit and STBY bit to “0”. The DAC is in
power-down mode until MCLK and LRCK are input. The AK4704 is in power-down mode until MCLK and LRCK are
input. The Figure 2 shows an example of the system timing at the power-down and power-up by PDN pin.

2. Audio Block
„ System Clock
The external clocks required to operate the DAC section of AK4704 are MCLK, LRCK and BICK. The master clock
(MCLK) corresponds to 256fs or 384fs. MCLK frequency is automatically detected, and the internal master clock
becomes 256fs. The MCLK should be synchronized with LRCK but the phase is not critical. Table 3 illustrates
corresponding clock frequencies. All external clocks (MCLK, BICK and LRCK) should always be present whenever the
DAC section of AK4704 is in the normal operating mode (STBY bit = “0” and DAPD bit = “0”). If these clocks are not
provided, the AK4704 may draw excess current because the device utilizes dynamically refreshed logic internally. The
DAC section of AK4704 should be reset by STBY bit = “0” after threse clocks are provided. If the external clocks are not
present, place the AK4704 in power-down mode (STBY bit = “1”). After exiting reset at power-up etc., the AK4704
remains in power-down mode until MCLK and LRCK are input.

„ Zero-cross Detection and Offset Calibration
To minimize the click noise at changing the gain of volume #1, the AK4704 has a zero-cross detection and an offset
calibration function. When DAPD bit =”1”, the zero-cross detection and offset calibration does not work.
1. Zero-cross detection function (03H: D2-D0)
When the ZERO bit = “1”, the zero-cross detection function is enabled. The gain of volume #1 changes at the first
zero-cross point from the acknowledgement of a volume changing command or when the zero-cross is not detected within
the time set by ZTM1-0 bits (256/fs to 2048/fs). The zero-cross counter is initialized whenever a gain is issued. The
zero-cross is detected on L/R channels independently. To disable this function, set the ZERO bit to “0”.
ZERO: Zero-cross detection enable for volume #1
0
:
Disable. The volume value changes immediately without zero-cross.
1
:
Enable (default). The volume value changes at a zero-crossing point or when timeout (ZTM1-0 bit
setting) occurs.
The internal comparator for zero-cross detection has a small offset. Therefore, the gain of volume #1 may change due to
a zero-cross timeout before the comparator-based zero-cross detection occurs.
When the new gain value 1EH(-2dB) is written while the gain of both Lch and Rch are 1FH(0dB), if the Lch detects the
zero-cross prior to Rch, only the gain of Lch changes to 1EH(-2dB) while Rch waits for a zero-cross. After that, if the gain
is set to 1DH(-4dB) before either a zero-cross or zero-cross timeout, the Rch keeps the same value and changes from 1FH
to 1DH at next zero-cross or timeout.

2. Offset calibration function (03H: D5)
Offset calibration is enabled when the CAL bit = “1”. This function begins when the TVOUT source is switched to DAC
after the STBY bit is changed to “0”. It takes 1664/fs to execute the offset calibration cycle. During the offset calibration
cycle, the analog outputs are muted. Once the offset calibration is executed, the calibration memory is held until PDN pin
= “L” or the new calibration is executed. When the switch is changed from DAC to VCR during calibration, the
calibration is discontinued, and resumed when TVOUT is switched back to DAC. If volume #1 gain is changed during
calibration, the change takes place after calibration is complete.

6. Control Interface
I2C-bus Control Mode
1. WRITE Operations
Figure 9 shows the data transfer sequence in I2C-bus mode. All commands are preceded by a START condition. A HIGH
to LOW transition on the SDA line while SCL is HIGH indicates a START condition (Figure 15). After the START
condition, a slave address is sent. This address is 7 bits long followed by an eighth bit which is a data direction bit (R/W).
The most significant seven bits of the slave address are fixed as “0010001”. If the slave address match that of the
AK4704, the AK4704 generates the acknowledge and the operation is executed. The master must generate the
acknowledge-related clock pulse and release the SDA line (HIGH) during the acknowledge clock pulse (Figure 16). A
“1” for R/W bit indicates that the read operation is to be executed. A “0” indicates that the write operation is to be
executed. The second byte consists of the address for control registers of the AK4704. The format is MSB first, and those
most significant 3-bits are fixed to zeros (Figure 11). The data after the second byte contain control data. The format is
MSB first, 8bits (Figure 12). The AK4704 generates an acknowledge after each byte has been received. A data transfer is
always terminated by a STOP condition generated by the master. A LOW to HIGH transition on the SDA line while SCL
is HIGH defines a STOP condition (Figure 15).
The AK4704 can execute multiple one byte write operations in a sequence. After receipt of the third byte, the AK4704
generates an acknowledge, and awaits the next data again. The master can transmit more than one byte instead of
terminating the write cycle after the first data byte is transferred. After the receipt of each data, the internal address
counter is incremented by one, and the next data is taken into next address automatically. If the address exceeds 09H prior
to generating the stop condition, the address counter will “roll over” to 00H and the previous data will be overwritten.
The data on the SDA line must be stable during the HIGH period of the clock. The HIGH or LOW state of the data line
can only change when the clock signal on the SCL line is LOW (Figure 17) except for the START and the STOP
condition.

2. READ Operations
Set R/W bit = “1” for READ operations. After transmission of data, the master can read the next address’s data by
generating an acknowledge instead of terminating the write cycle after the receipt the first data word. After the receipt of
each data, the internal address counter is incremented by one, and the next data is taken into next address automatically. If
the address exceeds 09H prior to generating the stop condition, the address counter will “roll over” to 00H and the
previous data will be overwritten.
The AK4704 supports two basic read operations: CURRENT ADDRESS READ and RANDOM READ.
2-1. CURRENT ADDRESS READ
The AK4704 contains an internal address counter that maintains the address of the last word accessed, incremented by
one. Therefore, if the last access (either a read or write) was to address n, the next CURRENT READ operation would
access data from the address n+1. After receipt of the slave address with R/W bit set to “1”, the AK4704 generates an
acknowledge, transmits 1byte data which address is set by the internal address counter and increments the internal address
counter by 1. If the master does not generate an acknowledge to the data but generate the stop condition, the AK4704
discontinues transmission

Figure 13. CURRENT ADDRESS READ
2-2. RANDOM READ
Random read operation allows the master to access any memory location at random. Prior to issuing the slave address
with the R/W bit set to “1”, the master must first perform a “dummy” write operation. The master issues a start condition,
slave address(R/W=“0”) and then the register address to read. After the register’s address is acknowledge, the master
immediately reissues the start condition and the slave address with the R/W bit set to “1”. Then the AK4704 generates an
acknowledge, 1-byte data and increments the internal address counter by 1. If the master does not generate an
acknowledge to the data but generate the stop condition, the AK4704 discontinues transmission.

„ Grounding and Power Supply Decoupling
VD, VP, VVD1, VVD2, VSS and VVSS should be supplied from analog supply unit with low impedance and be
separated from system digital supply. An electrolytic capacitor 10µF parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor should be
attached to these pins to eliminate the effects of high frequency noise. The 0.1µF ceramic capacitor should be placed as
near to VD (VP, VVD1, VVD2) as possible.
„ Voltage Reference
Each DVCOM/PVCOM are signal ground of this chip. An electrolytic capacitor 10µF parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic
capacitor should be attached to these VCOM pins to eliminate the effects of high frequency noise. No load current may be
drawn from these VCOM pins. All signals, especially clocks, should be kept away from these VCOM pins in order to
avoid unwanted coupling into the AK4704.
„ Analog Audio Outputs
The analog outputs are also single-ended and centered on 5.6V(typ.). The output signal range is typically 2Vrms
(typ@VD=5V). The internal switched-capacitor filter and continuous-time filter attenuate the noise generated by the
delta-sigma modulator beyond the audio pass band. Therefore, any external filters are not required for typical application.
The output voltage is a positive full scale for 7FFFFFH (@24bit) and a negative full scale for 800000H (@24bit). The
ideal output is 5.6V(typ.) for 000000H (@24bit). The DC voltage on analog outputs are eliminated by AC coupling.
„ FILT pin
The C (0.1 µF) should be attached as shown in the Figure 19.
