Function Description (1) Various setting 1-1) SMODE : slave and master mode selector pin Sets LRCLK and BITCLK to either inputs or outputs. a) Slave mode :SMODE="L" LRCLK(1fs) and BITCLK (64fs or 48fs ) become inputs. b) Master mode: SMODE="H" LRCLK (1fs) and BITCLK (64fs) become outputs. Note) SMODE pin is to be fixed “L” or “H”. Therefore, after release an initial reset ( INIT_RESET =”L”→”H”) SMODE must change during the system reset state ( S_RESET ="L") . This is especiallty critical in slave mode, as phase matching between internal and external clocks begins when a system reset occurs (See (8.(4)) Resetting). DO NOT CHANGE SMODE during runtime, as this will cause an error. (2) Control registers The control registers can be set via the microcomputer interface or the control pins. These registers consist of 4 addresses and each register is 8-bits. For the value to be written in the control registers see the microcomputer interface description. The following describes the control register map. TEST: for TEST (input 0,X: it ignore input data, but should input 0).

CONT0 can be set only at system reset ( S_RESET ="L"). 2. CONT1~2 should be set at system reset ( S_RESET ="L" ), otherwise some noise can come out. 3. The input selector (CONT3) can be changed “on the fly”. However it must change synchronously with the initialization of the ADC’s digital interface. For example: ADC1, the input selector (CONT3: ISEL1[2:0]) and CONT3:PSAD1=1 should change at the same time. After CONT3:PSAD1=0, then the ADC1 digital interface can be initialized. When changing CONT3 on the fly, some noise will occur, so an external mute circuit after the DAC output should be used. ADC2 can also cause some noise. 4.

The VREF (Analog reference level) of the AK7744 is set and its control registers are initialized by setting the INIT_RESET = "H". The time for the VREF to become stable depends on the external capacitance on the VCOM pin. For example, connecting a 10uF and a 0.1uF capacitor takes about 300ms before VREF is stable. Additional capacitance will increase this time, and this rise time is the MINIMUM amount of time for a stable VREF. You can guarantee a stable VREF by waiting longer than this minimum time after INIT_RESET ="H" to S_RESET ="H” (ADC and DAC start to work.). Normally, INIT_RESET sequence is executed when power is applied to the device. Note 1): Set INIT_RESET = "H" after setting the oscillation when a crystal oscillator is used. This setting time may differ depending on the crystal oscillator and its external circuit. NOTE: Do not stop the system clock (slave mode: XTI, LRCLK, BITCLK, master mode: XTI) except when S_RESET = "L". If these clock signals are not supplied, excess current will flow due to dynamic logic that is used internally, and an operation failure may result. Don’t set S_RESET ="H" during INIT_RESET ="L", or else the the crystal oscillator will stop or become unstable. AVDD DVDD INIT_RESET S_RESET Power OFF When a crystal oscillator is After VREF is stable, then rise used, ensure stable oscillation up S_RESET. It will take in this period. 300ms(reference) Fig. Power supply startup sequence <MS0167-E-00> - 25 - 2002/10 [ASAHI KASEI] [AK7744] (4) Resetting The AK7744 has two reset pins: INIT_RESET and S_RESET . The INIT_RESET pin is used to set up VREF and initialize the AK7744, as shown in "Power supply startup sequence section 3)." The system is reset when S_RESET =”L”. (Description of "reset" is for "system reset".) During a system reset, a program write operation is normally performed (except for write operation during running). During the system reset phase, the ADC and DAC sections are also reset. (The digital section of ADC output is MSB first 00000h and the analog section of DAC output is AVDD/2). However, VREF will be active, LRCLK and BITCLK in the master mode will be inactive The system reset is released by setting S_RESET to "H", whichl activates the internal counter. This counter generates LRCLK and BITCLK in the master mode: however, a problem may occur when a clock signal is generated. When the system reset is released in slave mode, internal timing will be actuated in synchronization with rising edge "Ç" of LRCLK (when the standard input format is used). Timing between the external and internal clocks is adjusted at this time. If the phase difference in LRCLK and internal timing is within about -1/16 to 1/16 of the input sampling cycle (1/fs) during the operation, the operation is performed with internal timing remaining unchanged. If the phase difference exceeds the above range, the phase is adjusted by synchronizing the "Ç" of LRCLK (when the standard input format is used). This prevents synchronization failure with the external circuit. For some time after returning to the normal state after loss of synchronization, normal data will not be valid. It should change the frequency of clock, SMODE or Analog input selector, while the system is in reset. When S_RESET is set to “H”, the reset state is cancelled, and an internal DRAM clear is executed on the rising edge of LRCLK. It takes 8Fs (167usec at fs=48kHz) to clear the internal DRAM. The ADC section can output 516-LRCLK after its internal counter has started. (The internal counter starts at the first rising edge of LRCLK in master mode. In slave mode, it starts 2 LRCLKs after the release of system reset. ) The AK7744 performs normal operation when S_RESET is set to "H". When INIT_RESET or S_RESET changes, the status of the DAC section also changes to Power down or Release mode, and it causes a click noise on the output. In this case, the SMUTE function is not effective; an external mute circuit is necessary to avoid any click noise. <MS0167-E-00> - 26 - 2002/10 [ASAHI KASEI] [AK7744] (5) System clock The required system clock is XTI (384fs/512fs), LRCLK (fs) and BITCLK (64 fs) in the slave mode, and is XTI (384 fs/512 fs) in the master mode. LRCLK corresponds to the standard digital audio rate (32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, and 48 kHz). Fs 32.0kHz 44.1kHz 48.0kHz XTI(Master Clock) 512fs 384fs 16.3840MHz 12.2880MHz 22.5792MHz 16.9344MHz 24.576MHz 18.4320MHz BITCLK 64fs 2.0480MHz 2.8224MHz 3.0720MHz 5-1) Master clock (XTI pin) The master clock is obtained by connecting a crystal oscillator between the XTI pin and XTO pin or by inputting an external clock into the XTI pin while the XTO pin is left open. 5-2) Slave mode The required system clock is XTI, LRCLK (1 fs) and BITCLK (48/64 fs). The master clock (XTI) and LRCLK must be synchronized, but the phase is not critical. 5-3) Master mode The required system clock is XTI (384fs/512fs). When the master clock (XTI) is input, LRCLK (1 fs) and BITCLK (64 fs) will be outputted from the internal counter synchronized with the XTI. LRCLK and BITCLK will not be active during initial reset ( INIT_RESET ="L") and system reset ( S_RESET ="L"). <MS0167-E-00> - 27 - 2002/10 [ASAHI KASEI] [AK7744] (6) Audio data interface (internal connection mode ) The serial audio data pins SDIN,SDINA1,SDINA2,SDOUT,SDOUTA1,SDOUTA2,SDOUTD1 and SDOUTD2 are interfaced with the external system, using LRCLK and BITCLK. The ports SDINA1, SDINA2, SDOUTA1, SDOUTA2, SDOUTD1 and SDOUTD2 are not normally used. These ports are controlled via registers. ( See the block diagram on page.2 and the control register setting section at page 28.) The data format is MSB-first 2's complement. Normally, the input/output format, in addition to the standard format used by AKM, can be changed to the I2S compatible mode by setting the control register “CONT0 DIF (D5) to 1”. (In this case, all input/output audio data pin interface are in the I2S compatible mode.) The input SDIN,SDINA1 and SDINA2 formats are MSB justified 24-bit at initialization. Setting the control registers CONT0: DIF1 (D4), DIF0(D3) will cause these ports to be compatible with LSB justified 24-bit, 20-bit and 16-bit. (SDINA is fixed at 24-bit MSB justified only.) (Note: CONT0 DIF(D5)=0). However, individual setting of SDIN, SDINA1 and SDINA2 is not allowed. The output SDOUT, SDOUTA1, SDOUTA2, SDOUTD1 and SDOUTD2 are fixed at 24-bit MSB justified only. In slave mode BITCLK corresponds to not only 64fs but also 48fs. 64fs is the recommended mode.

In the AK7744, two types of operations are provided; writing and reading during the reset phase (namely, system reset) and R/W during the run phase. During the reset phase, writing of the control register, program RAM, coefficient RAM, offset RAM, external conditional jump code, and reading of the program RAM, coefficient RAM and offset RAM, are enabled. During the run phase, writing of coefficient RAM, offset RAM and external conditional jump code, and reading of data on the DBUS (data bus) from the SO, are enabled. Its data is MSB first serial I/O. When the AK7744 needs to transfer data to the microcomputer, it starts by RQ going “L” expects reading of data on the DBUS. The AK7744 reads SI data at the rising point of SCLK, and outputs to SO at the falling point of SCLK. The AK7744 accepts first data as command then address data or some kinds of data input / output starts. When RQ changes to “H”, one command has finished. New command requests must set RQ to “L” again. For DBUS data reads, leave RQ =”H”. (It does not need command code input.) When it needs to clear the output buffer (MICR), the SI pin uses for control. (In this case, it is necessary to protect against a noise as SCLK.) Command code table is as follow.

The data can be entered during both the reset and operation phases, and the input data are set to the specified register at the leading edge of the LRCLK. When all data bits have been transferred, the RDY terminal goes to "L". Upon write completion, it goes to "H". A jump command will be executed if there is any one agreement between "1" of each bit of external condition code 8 bits (soft set) plus 1 bit (hard set) at the external input terminal JX and "1" of each bit of the IFCON field. The data during the reset phase can be written only before release of the reset, after all data has been transferred. RQ Transition from "L" to "H" in the write operation during the reset phase must be executed after three LRCLK in the slave mode or one LRCLK in master mode, respectively, from the trailing edge of the LRCLK after release of the reset. Then the RDY goes to "H" after capturing the rise of the next LRCLK. A write operation from the microcomputer is disabled until the RDY goes to "H". The IFCON field provides external conditions written on the program. It resets to 00h by INIT_RESET =”L”, however, it remains previous condition even S_RESET =”L”. Note: It should be noted that the LRCLK phase is inverted in the I2S-compatible state. 7 0 JX External condition code Ç Check if there is any one agreement between the bit specified in IFCON and "1" in the external condition code 16 È 8 IFCON field Data transfer procedure c Command code C4h ( 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0) d Code data (D7 . . . . .

Data is set when @MICR the DST field specifies. Setting of data allows DRDY to go to "H", and data is output synchronized with the falling edge of SCLK. When SI goes to "H", DRDY goes to "L" to wait for the next command. Once DRDY goes to "H", the data of the last @MICR command immediately before DRDY goes to "H" will be held until SI goes to "H", and subsequent commands will be rejected. A maximum of 24 bits are output from SO. After the required number of data (not exceeding 24 bits) is taken out by SCLK, setting SI to “H” can output the next data.

(Note: Its main purpose is checking against the noise effects during ata writes from microprocessor to the AK7744. This check CANNOT guarantee 100% error detection on the AK7744, because this CRC (cyclic redundancy check) is before writing internal AK7744’s RAM or its register. Explanation: * Serial data(X): Input SI data from RQ fall to rise up. * Generator polynomial G(x) =x16+x12+x5+1 (X.25 of CCITT standard order of hexadecimal is 11021h). * The rest of D(x) divides by G(x) is R(x). This division is using exclusive-or instead of subtraction during this calculation. It makes good 16-bit zero data after translated serial data D(X) and the rest R(X) of this division comes out 16bit data. In order to do simple error check is as following: 1) Use the command code B6h and write the R(x) (the rest result of serial data D(x) divided by G(x)). 2) Then use the command code D6h and read out R(x) to check whether the R(x) is correct or not. (Unless this read out, CRC check itself works.) 3) If the result of the rest D(x) divided by G(x) is equal to R(x), SO outputs “H” from the next rising edge of RQ to falling edge of RQ . (However, SO read out from micro-controller is prior to this signal. Refrain from a runtime read out while doing CRC check.) If R(x) is not equal to the result, it outputs “L”. 4) If you want to check other serial data, then repeat action form 1) to 3). Note) In the case of detecting CRC error in runtime “CRAM rewrite” (A4h) or “OFRAM rewrite“(94h), the possibility of writing data to the wrong address exists. * Specific order of data translates. 1) Write the register The rest R(x) data writing is using 3-byte/unit (24bit) Data translate order. cCommand code B6h dUpper 8bit of R(x) (D15 * * * * * * D8) eLower 8bit of R(x) ( D7 * * * * * * D0) 2) Read out the register The rest R(x) data reading out is 3-byte/unit (24bit) Data translate order cCommand code D6h dUpper 8bit of R(x) (D15 * * * * * * D8) eLower 8bit of R(x) ( D7 * * * * * * D0) <MS0167-E-00> - 44 - 2002/10 [ASAHI KASEI] [AK7744] R(x) RQ SCLK SI B6h D15 *** D0 D6h SO D15 *** D0 Example: Control register writing, reading 3) CRC Check D(x) RQ SCLK SI 10100000 0000000A8 A7***A1 A0 D15*** D0 10100000 0000000A8 A7***A1 A0 SO The rest(D(x)/G(x))=R(x) The rest of D(x)/G(x)=R(x) CRC Check example. 4) Example of the R(x) made from D(x).

System analog power is supplied to AVDD. Generally, the power supply and ground wires must be connected separately for the analog and digital sections. Connect them at a position close to the power source on the PC board. Decoupling capacitors and small ceramic capacitors should be connected as close as possible to the AK7744 2) Reference voltage The input voltage difference between the VREFH pin and the AVSS pin determines the full scale of analog input, while the potential difference between the VREFH pin and the AVSS pin determines the full scale of the analog output. Normally, connect AVDD to VREFH, and connect 0.1µF ceramic capacitors from them to AVSS. To shut out high frequency noise, connect a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor in parallel with an appropriate 10µF electrolytic capacitor between this pin and AVSS. The ceramic capacitor in particular should be connected as close as possible to the pin. To avoid coupling to the AK7744, digital signals and clock signals should be kept away as far as possible from the VREFH pin. VCOM is used as the common voltage of the analog signal.To shut out high frequency noise, connect a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor in parallel with an appropriate 10µF electrolytic capacitor between this pin and AVSS. The ceramic capacitor should be connected as close as possible to the pin. Do not lead current from the VCOM pin. 3) Analog input Analog input signals are applied to the modulator through the differential input pins or single-ended pins of each channel selected by the input selector. When using the differential inputs, this voltage is equal to the differential voltage between AIN+ and AIN- (∆VAIN=(AIN+)-(AIN-)), and the input range is ±FS= ±(VREFH-AVSS)×(2.0/3.3). When VREFH = 3.3V and AVSS = 0V, the input range is within ±2.0Vpp. When using single-ended inputs, this input range is FS = (VREFH-AVSS)×(2.0/3.3). When VREFH = 3.3V and AVSS = 0V, the input range is within 2.0Vpp the output code format is given in terms of 2's complements. The analog source voltage to the AK7744 is +3.3V(Typ.). Voltage of AVDD+0.3V or more, voltage of AVSS-0.3V or less, and current of 10 mA or more must not be applied to analog input pins (AINL+,AINL-,AINR+,AINR-,AINL1,AINR1,AINL2,AINR2,AINL3,AINR3,AINL4,AINR4,AINL5,AINR5, A2IN+,A2IN-,A2IN1,VREFH) Excessive current will damage the internal protection circuit and will cause latch-up, thereby damaging the IC. Accordingly, if the surrounding analog circuit voltage is ±15 V, the analog input pins must be protected from high-voltage signals. 10k Signal 10k +10V 22u + 10k 2.00Vpp 10k + + + NJM5532D -10V AIN+ 4.7u + Vop = VA+ = 3.3V 4.7u AIN2.00Vpp Fig. 1 Example of input buffer circuit (differential input) <MS0167-E-00> - 47 - 2002/10 [ASAHI KASEI] [AK7744] 10k Signal 10k +10V 22u + 10k 2.00Vp p 10k + + + NJM5532D AIN 4.7u -10V Vop = VA+ = 3.3V Fig. 2 Example of input buffer circuit (single ended input) An analog signal can be applied to the AK7744 is single ended mode. In this case, apply the analog signal (the full scale is 2.0Vpp when the internal reference voltage is used).

The differential outputs are summed externally, VAOUT=(AOUT+)-(AOUT-) between AOUT+ and AOUT-. If the summing gain is 1, the output range is VAOUT = 3.66Vpp(typ@ VRDAH=3.3V). The bias voltage of external summing circuit is supplied externally. The input data format is 2’s complement. The output voltage is a positive full scale for 7FFFFFH(@24bit) and a negative full scale for 800000H(@24bit). The ideal AOUT is 0V for 000000H(@24bit). The internal switched-capacitor filter and external LPF attenuate the noise generated by the delta-sigma modulator beyond the audio passband. Differential outputs can eliminate few mV+AVDD/2 DC offset on analog outputs with capacitors. Fig.3 shows the example of external op-amp circuit summing the differential outputs. 5) Connection to digital circuit To minimize the noise resulting from the digital circuit, connect low voltage logic to the digital output. The applicable logic family includes the 74LV, 74LV-A, 74ALVC and 74AVC series. <MS0167-E-00> - 48 - 2002/10 [ASAHI KASEI] [AK7744] 10.
