Note 22. The passband and stopband frequencies scale with fs (system sampling rate).
For example, ADC is PB=0.454*fs (@-1.0dB), DAC is PB=0.454*fs (@-0.01dB).
Note 23. The calculated delay time caused by digital filtering. This time is from the input of analog signal to setting of the
16-bit data of both channels from the input register to the output register of the ADC. This time includes the group
delay of the HPF. For the DAC, this time is from setting the 16-bit data of both channels from the input register to
the output of analog signal.
Note 24. These frequency responses scale with fs. If a high-level and low frequency signal is input, the analog output clips
to the full-scale.

OPERATION OVERVIEW
n Master Clock Source
The AK4538 requires a master clock (MCLK). This master clock is input to the AK4538 by connecting a X’tal oscillator
to XTI and XTO pins or by inputting an external CMOS-level clock to the XTI pin or by inputting an external clock that is
greater than 50% of the DVDD level to the XTI pin through a capacitor.
When using a X’tal oscillator, there should be capacitors between XTI/XTO pins and DVSS. When using an external
clock, there are two choices: direct, where an external clock is input directly to the XTI pin and indirect, where the external
clock is input through a capacitor.

n System Clock
(1) PLL Mode (PMPLL bit = “1”)
A fully integrated analog phase locked loop (PLL) generates a clock that is selected by the PLL1-0 and FS2-0 bits (see
Table 2 and Table 3). The frequency of the MCKO output is selectable via the PS1-0 bits registers as defined in Table 4
and the MCKO output enable is controlled by the MCKO bit. If PS1-0 bits are changed before LRCK is input,
MCKO is not output. PS1-0 bits should be changed after LRCK is input in slave mode.
The PLL should be powered-up after the X’tal oscillator becomes stable or external master clock is inputted. If X'tal and
PLL are powered-up at the same time or PLL is powered-up before external master clock is inputted,
the PLL does not start. It takes X’tal oscillator 20ms(typ) to be stable after PMXTL bit= “1”. The PLL needs 40ms
lock time, whenever the sampling frequency changes or the PLL is powered-up (PMPLL bit= “0” → “1”).
If the sampling frequency is changed and the PLL goes to unlock state when the DAC is operated(PMDAC bit= “1”), the
DAC data should be soft-muted or “0”. In case of the ADC(PMADC bit = “1”), the ADC data acquired during the
frequency change may be erroneous and therefore should not be used.
LRCK and BICK are output from the AK4538 in master mode. When the clock input to MCKI pin stops during normal
operation (PMPLL bit = “1”), the internal PLL continues to oscillate (a few MHz), and LRCK and BICK outputs go to “L”
(see Table 5).
In slave mode, the LRCK input should be synchronized with MCKO. The master clock (MCKI) should be synchronized
with sampling clock (LRCK). The phase between these clocks does not matter. LRCK and BICK must be present whenever
the AK4538 is operating (PMADC bit = “1” or PMDAC bit = “1”). If these clocks are not provided, the AK4538 may draw
excess current due to its use of internal dynamically refreshed logic. If the external clocks are not present, place the
AK4538 in power-down mode (PMADC bit = PMDAC bit = “0”).

Table 6. Clock Operation at Slave Mode (PLL Mode)
(2) External mode (PMPLL bit = “0”)
When the PMPLL bit = “0”, the AK4538 works in external clock mode. The MCKO pin outputs a buffered clock of MCKI
input.
For example, when MCKI = 256fs, the sampling frequency is changeable from 7kHz to 48kHz (Table 7).
The MCKO bit controls MCKO output enable. The frequency of MCKO is selectable via register the PS1-0 bits as defined
in Table 8. If PS1-0 bits are changed before LRCK is input, MCKO is not output. PS1-0 bits should be
changed after LRCK is input in slave mode. The master clock frequency should be changed only when both the
PMADC and PMDAC bits = “0”.
LRCK and BICK are output from the AK4538 in master mode. The clock to the MCKI pin must not stop during normal
operation (PMPLL bit = “1”). If this clock is not provided, the AK4538 may draw excess current due to its use of internal
dynamically refreshed logic. If the external clocks are not present, place the AK4538 in power-down mode (PMADC bit =
PMDAC bit = “0”).
MCKI, BICK and LRCK clocks are required in slave mode. The master clock (MCKI) should be synchronized with
sampling clock (LRCK). The phase between these clocks does not matter. LRCK and BICK should always be present
whenever the AK4538 is in normal operation (PMADC bit = “1” or PMDAC bit = “1”). If these clocks are not provided,
the AK4538 may draw excess current due to its use of internal dynamically refreshed logic. If the external clocks are not
present, place the AK4538 in power-down mode (PMADC bit = PMDAC bit = “0”).

The S/N of the DAC at low sampling frequencies is worse than at high sampling frequencies due to out-of-band noise.
When the out-of-band noise can be improved by using higher frequency of the master clock. The S/N of the DAC output
through Headphone amp at fs=8kHz is shown in Table 11.

The M/S pin selects either master or slave modes. M/S pin = “H” selects master mode and “L” selects slave mode. The
AK4538 outputs MCKO, BICK and LRCK in master mode. The AK4538 outputs only MCKO in slave mode, while BICK
and LRCK must be input separately.

[AK4538]
n System Reset
Upon power-up, reset the AK4538 by bringing the PDN pin = “L”. This ensures that all internal registers reset to their
initial values.
The ADC enters an initialization cycle that starts when the PMADC bit is changed from “0” to “1”. The initialization cycle
time is 2081/fs, or 47.2ms@fs=44.1kHz. During the initialization cycle, the ADC digital data outputs of both channels are
forced to a 2's compliment, “0”. The ADC output reflects the analog input signal after the initialization cycle is complete.
The DAC does not require an initialization cycle.
n Audio Interface Format
Three types of data formats are available and are selected by setting the DIF1-0 bits. In all modes, the serial data is MSB
first, 2’s complement format. The SDTO is clocked out on the falling edge of BICK and the SDTI is latched on the rising
edge. All data formats can be used in both master and slave modes. LRCK and BICK are output from AK4538 in master
mode, but must be input to AK4538 in slave mode. If 16-bit data that ADC outputs is converted to 8-bit data by removing
LSB 8-bit, −1 at 16bit data is converted to −1 at 8-bit data. And when the DAC playbacks this 8-bit data, −1 at 8-bit data
will be converted to −256 at 16-bit data and this is a large offset. This offset can be removed by adding the offset of 128 to
16-bit data before converting to 8-bit data.

n Manual Mode
The AK4538 becomes a manual mode at ALC1 bit = “0”. This mode is used in the case shown below.
1. After exiting reset state, set up the registers for the ALC1 operation (ZTM1-0, LMTH and etc)
2. When the registers for the ALC1 operation (Limiter period, Recovery period and etc) are changed.
For example; When the change of the sampling frequency.
3. When IPGA is used as a manual volume.
When writing to the IPGA6-0 bits continually, the control register should be written by an interval more than zero crossing
timeout.
n MIC-ALC Operation
The ALC (Automatic Level Control) of MIC input is done by ALC1 block when ALC1 bit is “1”.
[1] ALC1 Limiter Operation
When the ALC1 limiter is enabled, and IPGA output exceeds the ALC1 limiter detection level (LMTH), the IPGA value is
attenuated by the amount defined in the ALC1 limiter ATT step (LMAT1-0 bits) automatically.
When the ZELM bit = “1”, the timeout period is set by the LTM1-0 bits. The operation for attenuation is done continuously
until the input signal level becomes LMTH or less. If the ALC1 bit does not change into “0” after completing the
attenuation, the attenuation operation repeats while the input signal level equals or exceeds LMTH.
When the ZELM bit = “0”, the timeout period is set by the ZTM1-0 bits. This enables the zero-crossing attenuation
function so that the IPGA value is attenuated at the zero-detect points of the waveform.
[2] ALC1 Recovery Operation
The ALC1 recovery refers to the amount of time that the AK4538 will allow a signal to exceed a predetermined limiting
value prior to enabling the limiting function. The ALC1 recovery operation uses the WTM1-0 bits to define the wait period
used after completing an ALC1 limiter operation. If the input signal does not exceed the “ALC1 Recovery Waiting Counter
Reset Level”, the ALC1 recovery operation starts. The IPGA value increases automatically during this operation up to the
reference level (REF6-0 bits). The ALC1 recovery operation is done at a period set by the WTM1-0 bits. Zero crossing is
detected during WTM1-0 period, the ALC1 recovery operation waits WTM1-0 period and the next recovery operation
starts.
During the ALC1 recovery operation, when input signal level exceeds the ALC1 limiter detection level (LMTH), the
ALC1 recovery operation changes immediately into an ALC1 limiter operation.
In the case of “(Recovery waiting counter reset level) ≤ IPGA Output Level < Limiter detection level” during the ALC1
recovery operation, the wait timer for the ALC1 recovery operation is reset. Therefore, in the case of “(Recovery waiting
counter reset level) > IPGA Output Level”, the wait timer for the ALC1 recovery operation starts.
The ALC1 operation corresponds to the impulse noise. When the impulse noise is input, the ALC1 recovery operation
becomes faster than a normal recovery operation.

The following registers should not be changed during the ALC1 operation. These bits should be changed, after the ALC1
operation is finished by ALC1 bit = “0” or PMMIC bit = “0”.

n Digital Attenuator
The AK4538 has a channel-independent digital attenuator (256 levels, 0.5dB step, Mute). The attenuation level of each
channel can be set by the ATTL/R7-0 bits (Table 21). When the DATTC bit = “1”, the ATTL7-0 bits control both Lch and
Rch attenuation levels. When the DATTC bit = “0”, the ATTL7-0 bits control Lch level and ATTR7-0 bits control Rch
level. This attenuator has a soft transition function. It takes 1061/fs from 00H to FFH.

n Soft Mute
Soft mute operation is performed in the digital domain. When the SMUTE bit goes to a “1”, the output signal is attenuated
by -∞ (“0”) during the cycle set by the TM1-0 bits. When the SMUTE bit is returned to “0”, the mute is cancelled and the
output attenuation gradually changes to 0dB during the cycle set of the TM1-0 bits. If the soft mute is cancelled within the
cycle set by the TM1-0 bits after starting the operation, the attenuation is discontinued and returned to 0dB. The soft mute
is effective for changing the signal source without stopping the signal transmission.
The soft mute function is independent of output volume and cascade connected between both functions.

n BEEP Input
When the BMBPS bit is set to “1”, the stereo beep input is powered up. And when the BPSHP bit is set to “1”, the input
signals from the BEEPL and BEEPR pins are mixed to Headphone outputs. When the BPSSP bit is set to “1”, the signal of
(BEEPL + BEEPR)/2 is input to Speaker-amp. When the BMBPM bit is set to “1”, mono beep input is powered up. And
when the BPMHP bit is set to “1”, the input signal from the BEEPM pin to Headphone-amp. When the BPMSP bit is set to
“1”, the signal from the BEEPM pin is input to Speaker output. The external resisters Ri adjust the signal level of each
BEEP input that are mixed to Headphone and Speaker outputs.
The signal from the BEEPM pin is mixed to the Headphone-amp through a –20dB gain stage. The signal from the BEEPM
pin is mixed to the Speaker-amp without gain. The internal feedback resistance is 20k ± 30%Ω.

n Headphone Output
Power supply voltage for the Headphone-amp is supplied from the HVDD pin and centered on the HVDD/2 voltage. The
Headphone output load resistance is min.20Ω. When the HPL and HPR bits are “1”, output signals are muted and the HPL
and HPR pins output HVDD/2 voltage. When the HPL and HPR bits are “0”, the Headphone-amps are in normal
operation. When the PMHPL and PMHPR bits are “0”, the Headphone-amp is powered down and the outputs (HPL and
HPR pins) go to “L” (HVSS). A capacitor between the MUTET pin and ground reduces pop noise at power-up.
[Example] : A capacitor between the MUTET pin and ground = 1.0µF, a capacitor between the HPL (HPR) pin and

Note: The HPL and HPR bits should be kept to “0” during power-up.
(1) PMHPL and PMHPR bits = “1”
Headphone-amp is powered up. Common voltage of Headphone-amp is rising. This rise time depends on the capacitor
value connected with the MUTET pin. The time constant is τr = 100k x C when the capacitor value on MUTET pin is
“C”.
(2) PMHPL and PMHPR bits = “0”
Headphone-amp is powered down. Common voltage is falling. This fall time depends on the internal resistor and the
capacitor value of HPL/R pins. The time constant is τf = 2k x (2 x C) when the capacitor value on HPL(HPR) pin is “C”.
If the power supply is powered off or Headphone-Amp is powered-up again before the common voltage goes to GND,
some POP noise occurs. It takes 5times of τf that the common voltage goes to GND.
The cut-off frequency of Headphone-amp output depends on the external resistor and capacitor used. Table 18 shows the
cut off frequency and the output power for various resistor/capacitor combinations. The headphone impedance RL is 16Ω.
Output powers are shown at HVDD = 2.7, 3.0 and 3.3V. The output voltage of headphone is 0.6 x AVDD (Vpp).
When an external resistor R is smaller than 12Ω, put an oscillation prevention circuit (0.22µF+10Ω) because it has the
possibility that Headphone-amp oscillates.

n Speaker Output
Mono signal [(L+R)/2] converted from stereo DAC output and BEEP input signal can be output via Speaker-amp which is
controlled by BTL. ALC2 circuit is available for DAC output signal. This Speaker-amp can deliver a maximum power of
300mW(typ)@THD=10%, 250mW(typ)@THD=0.1% into 8 ohm load at HVDD=3.3V. Maximum output power is
137mW(typ) when DAC output signal is output via ALC2 circuit as system design example (Figure 46). When BEEP input
is used for DAC output, maximum power becomes 300mW. Figure 29 and Figure 30 indicates connection examples for
300mW output.
Speaker blocks (MOUT2, ALC2 and Speaker-amp) can be powered up/down by controlling the PMSPK bit. When the
PMSPK bit is “0”, the MOUT2, SPP and SPN pins are placed in a Hi-Z state.
When the SPPS bit is “0”, the Speaker-amp enters power-save-mode. In this mode, the SPP pin is placed in a Hi-Z state and
the SPN pin goes to HVDD/2 voltage. And then the Speaker output gradually changes to the HVDD/2 voltage and this
mode can reduce pop noise at power-up. When the AK4538 is powered down, pop noise can be also reduced by first
entering power-save-mode.

1. MOUT2 output is recommended to be AC coupled to avoid amplified DC offset of common voltage of MOUT2 and
BEEP-Amp is output via BTL Speaker-Amp (that means stand-by current is increased). Capacitor size affects the
cut-off frequency of 1st order LPF made by this AC coupling capacitor and series resister in front of BEEP input.
2. BEEP input path has 1.9dB greater gain than MIN input since ALC2 circuit is not included in BEEP path.
3. Internal feedback resister of BEEP-Amp which determines BEEP-Amp gain has 30% sample variation.
n MONO OUTPUT (MOUT2 pin)
The mixed Lch/Rch signal of DAC is output from the MOUT2 pin. When the MOUT2 bit is “0”, this output is OFF and the
MOUT2 pin is forced to VCOM voltage. The load impedance is 10kΩ (min.). When the PMSPK bit is “0”, the
Speaker-amp enters power-down-mode and the output is placed in a Hi-Z state.

n ALC2 Operation
Input resistance of the ALC2 is 24kΩ (typ) and centered around VCOM voltage, and the input signal level is –3.1dBV. (see
Figure 31. 0dBV=1Vrms=2.828Vpp)
The limiter detection level is proportional to HVDD. The output level is limited by the ALC2 circuit when the input signal
exceeds –5.2dBV (=FS-1.9dB@HVDD=3.3V). When a continuous signal of –5.2dBV or greater is input to the ALC2
circuit, the change period of the ALC2 limiter operation is set by the ROTM bit and the attenuation level is 0.5dB/step.
The ALC2 recovery operation uses zero crossings and gains of 1dB/step. The ALC2 recovery operation is done until the
input level of the Speaker-amp goes to –7.2dBV(=FS-3.9dB@HVDD=3.3V). The ROTM bit sets the ALC2 recovery
operation period.
When the input signal is between –5.2dBV and –7.2dBV, the ALC2 limiter or recovery operations are not done.
When the PMSPK bit changes from “0” to “1”, the initilization cycle (2048/fs = 46.4ms @fs=44.1kHz at ROTM bit = “0”,
512/fs = 11.4ms @fs=44.1kHz at the ROTM bit = “1”) starts. The ALC2 is disabled during the initilization cycle and the
ALC2 starts after completing the initilization cycle.

the rising edge of CCLK and data is clocked out on the falling edge. After a low-to-high transition of CSN, data is latched

The AK4538 supports the standard-mode I2C-bus (max: 100kHz). The AK4538 does not support a fast-mode I2C-bus
system (max: 400kHz).
(2)-1. WRITE Operations
Figure 35 shows the data transfer sequence for the 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 41). After the START
condition, a slave address is sent. This address is 7 bits long followed by an eighth bit that is a data direction bit (R/W). The
most significant five bits of the slave address are fixed as “00100”. The next two bits are CAD1 and CAD0 (device address
bits). These two bits identify the specific device on the bus. The hard-wired input pins (CAD1 and CAD0 pins) set these
device address bits (Figure 36). If the slave address matches that of the AK4538, the AK4538 generates an 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 42). A R/W bit value of “1” 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 control register address of the AK4538. The format is MSB first, and those most significant
3-bits are fixed to zeros (Figure 37). The data after the second byte contains control data. The format is MSB first, 8bits
(Figure 38). The AK4538 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 41).
The AK4538 can perform more than one byte write operation per sequence. After receipt of the third byte the AK4538
generates an acknowledge and awaits the next data. The master can transmit more than one byte instead of terminating the
write cycle after the first data byte is transferred. After receiving each data packet the internal 5-bit address counter is
incremented by one, and the next data is automatically taken into the next address. If the address exceeds 0FH 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 remain 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 43) except for the START and STOP conditions.

(2)-2. READ Operations
Set the R/W bit = “1” for the READ operation of the AK4538. 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 of the first data word.
After receiving each data packet the internal 5-bit address counter is incremented by one, and the next data is automatically
taken into the next address. If the address exceeds 0FH prior to generating a stop condition, the address counter will “roll
over” to 00H and the previous data will be overwritten.
The AK4538 supports two basic read operations: CURRENT ADDRESS READ and RANDOM ADDRESS READ.
(2)-2-1. CURRENT ADDRESS READ
The AK4538 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) were 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 AK4538 generates an
acknowledge, transmits 1-byte of data to the address 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 instead generates a stop condition, the
AK4538 ceases transmission.

Figure 39. CURRENT ADDRESS READ
(2)-2-2. RANDOM ADDRESS READ
The 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 request, a
slave address (R/W bit = “0”) and then the register address to read. After the register address is acknowledged, the master
immediately reissues the start request and the slave address with the R/W bit set to “1”. The AK4538 then generates an
acknowledge, 1 byte of data and increments the internal address counter by 1. If the master does not generate an
acknowledge to the data but instead generates a stop condition, the AK4538 ceases transmission.

During the ALC1 recovery operation, the number of steps changed from the current IPGA value is set. For example,
when the current IPGA value is 30H and RATT bit = “1” is set, the IPGA changes to 32H by the ALC1 recovery
operation and the output signal level is gained up by 1dB (=0.5dB x 2). When the IPGA value exceeds the

During the ALC1 limiter operation, when either Lch or Rch exceeds the ALC1 limiter detection level set by LMTH,
the number of steps attenuated from the current IPGA value is set. For example, when the current IPGA value is
47H and the LMAT1-0 bits = “11”, the IPGA transition to 43H when the ALC1 limiter operation starts, resulting
in the input signal level being attenuated by 2dB (=0.5dB x 4). When the attenuation value exceeds IPGA = “00”

During the ALC1 recovery operation, if the IPGA value exceeds the setting reference value by gain operation, then
the IPGA does not become larger than the reference value. For example, when REF7-0 = “30H”, RATT = 2step,
IPGA = 2FH, even if the input signal does not exceed the “ALC1 Recovery Waiting Counter Reset Level”, the
IPGA does not change to 2FH + 2step = 31H, and keeps 30H. Default is “36H”.

Notes:
- AVSS, DVSS, PVSS and HVSS of the AK4538 should be distributed separately from the ground of external
controllers.
- Values of R and C in Figure 46 should depend on system.
- All input pins should not be left floating.

ASAHI KASEI
[AK4538]
1. Grounding and Power Supply Decoupling
The AK4538 requires careful attention to power supply and grounding arrangements. AVDD, DVDD, PVDD and HVDD
are usually supplied from the system’s analog supply. If AVDD, DVDD, PVDD and HVDD are supplied separately, the
correct power up sequence should be observed. AVSS, DVSS, PVSS and HVSS of the AK4538 should be connected to the
analog ground plane. System analog ground and digital ground should be connected together near to where the supplies are
brought onto the printed circuit board. Decoupling capacitors should be as near to the AK4538 as possible, with the small
value ceramic capacitor being the nearest.
2. Voltage Reference
VCOM is a signal ground of this chip. A 2.2µF electrolytic capacitor in parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor attached to
the VCOM pin eliminates the effects of high frequency noise. No load current may be drawn from the VCOM pin. All
signals, especially clocks, should be kept away from the VREF and VCOM pins in order to avoid unwanted coupling into
the AK4538.
3. Analog Inputs
The Mic and Beep inputs are single-ended. The input signal range scales with nominally at 0.06 x AVDD Vpp for the Mic
input and 0.6 x AVDD Vpp for the Beep input, centered around the internal common voltage (0.45 x AVDD). Usually the
input signal is AC coupled using a capacitor. The cut-off frequency is fc = (1/2πRC). The AK4538 can accept input
voltages from AVSS to AVDD.
4. Analog Outputs
The input data format for the DAC is 2’s complement. The output voltage is a positive full scale for 7FFFH(@16bit) and
a negative full scale for 8000H(@16bit). Mono output from the MOUT2 pin and Mono Line Output from the MOUT+ and
MOUT- pins are centered at 0.45 x AVDD. The Headphone-Amp and Speaker-Amp outputs are centered at HVDD/2.

Figure 53. MIC Input Recording Sequence
<Example>
This sequence is an example of ALC1 setting at fs=8kHz. If the parameter of the ALC1 is changed, please refer to
“Figure 21. Registers set-up sequence at the ALC1 operation.”
At first, clocks should be supplied according to “Clock Set Up” sequence.
(1) Set up a sampling frequency (FS2-0 bits). When the AK4538 is PLL mode, MIC and ADC should be powered-up
in consideration of PLL lock time after a sampling frequency is changed.
(2) Set up MIC input (Addr: 07H)
(3) Set up Timer Select for ALC1 (Addr: 08H)
(4) Set up REF value for ALC1 (Addr: 0AH)
(5) Set up LMTH, RATT, LMAT1-0, ALC1 bits (Addr: 09H)
(6) Power Up MIC and ADC: PMMIC bit = PMADC bit = “0” → “1”
The initialization cycle time of ADC is 2081/fs=47.2ms@fs=44.1kHz.
After the ALC1 bit is set to “1” and MIC block is powered-up, the ALC1 operation starts from IPGA initial
value (0dB).
(7) Power Down MIC and ADC: PMMIC bit = PMADC bit = “1” → “0”
When the registers for the ALC1 operation are not changed, ALC1 bit may be keeping “1”. The ALC1
operation is disabled because the MIC block is powered-down. If the registers for the ALC1 operation are also
changed when the sampling frequency is changed, it should be done after the AK4538 goes to the manual mode
(ALC1 bit = “0”) or MIC block is powered-down (PMMIC bit = “0”). IPGA gain is reset when PMMIC bit is
“0”, and then IPGA operation starts from the default value when PMMIC is changed to “1”.

Figure 54. Headphone-Amp Output Sequence
<Example>
At first, clocks should be supplied according to “Clock Set Up” sequence.
(1) Set up a sampling frequency (FS2-0 bits) if PLL mode is used.
(2) Set up the low frequency boost level(BST1-0 bits)
(3) Set up the digital volume(Addr : 0CH and 0DH)
At DATTC bit = “1”(default), ATTL7-0 bits of Address 0CH control both Lch and Rch attenuation level.
(4) Power up DAC and headphone-amp : PMDAC bit = PMHPL bit = PMHPR bit = “0” → “1”
The rising time after power up Headphone-amp depends on the capacitor value connected with the MUTET
pin. When this capacitor value is 1.0µF, the time constant is τr = 100ms.
(5) Release the external mute.
(6) Enable the external mute.
(7) Power down DAC and headphone-amp : PMDAC bit = PMHPL bit = PMHPR bit = “1” → “0”
The falling time of Headphone-amp depends on the capacitor for the AC couple of Headphone-amp output.
When this capacitor value is 47µF, the time constant is τf = 188ms. If the power supply is powered off or
Headphone-Amp is powered-up again before the common voltage goes to GND, some POP noise occurs. It
takes 5times of τf that the common voltage goes to GND.
(8) Off the low frequency boost level (BST1-0 bits = “00”)
