ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
Absolute Maximum Ratings are stress ratings only. Permanent damage to the device may be caused by continuously operating
at or beyond these limits. Device functional operating limits and guaranteed performance specifications are given under Electrical
Characteristics at the test conditions specified.
ESD Sensitive Device. This device is manufactured on a CMOS process. It is therefore generically susceptible
to damage from excessive static voltages. Proper ESD precautions must be taken during handling and
storage of this device.
Wolfson tests its package types according to IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B for Moisture Sensitivity to determine acceptable storage
conditions prior to surface mount assembly. These levels are:
MSL1 = unlimited floor life at <30C / 85% Relative Humidity. Not normally stored in moisture barrier bag.
MSL2 = out of bag storage for 1 year at <30C / 60% Relative Humidity. Supplied in moisture barrier bag.
MSL3 = out of bag storage for 168 hours at <30C / 60% Relative Humidity. Supplied in moisture barrier bag.
The Moisture Sensitivity Level for each package type is specified in Ordering Information.

INTERNAL POWER ON RESET
The WM8725 includes an internal power-on reset circuit. This is shown in Figure 1.This reset
circuit is used to reset the digital logic into a default state after power up.
Figure 1 Internal Power on Reset Circuit
The timing of the power on reset is shown in Figure 2 The circuit monitors VDD and VMID
(CAP pin) and asserts PORB low when VMID is below the minimum threshold Vpor. It is
assumed that VMID will rise slower than VCC due to the capacitor on VMID.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION
WM8725 is a complete stereo audio 16-24 bit digital-to-analogue converter, including digital
interpolation filter, multibit sigma-delta with dither, and switched capacitor multibit stereo DAC
and output smoothing filters.
Special functions of mute and de-emphasis are provided, and operation using system clock of
256fs or 384fs is provided, selection between either clock rate being automatically controlled.
Sample rates (fs) from less than 8ks/s to 96ks/s are allowed, provided the appropriate system
clock is input.
MUTE
DESCRIPTION
0
Mute is OFF
1
Mute is ON
Table 2 Mute Control
A novel multi bit sigma-delta DAC design is used, utilising a 64x oversampling rate, to
optimise signal to noise performance and offer increased clock jitter tolerance.
Internally generated midrail references are used to DC bias output signals, requiring only a
single external capacitor for decoupling purposes.
Single 3V to 5V supplies may be used, the output amplitude scaling with absolute supply
level. Low supply voltage operation and low current consumption, and the low pin count small
package, make the WM8725 attractive for many consumer type applications.
DAC CIRCUITS
The WM8725 DACs are designed to allow playback of 16-bit PCM audio or similar data with
high resolution and low noise and distortion. Sample rates up to 96ks/s may be used, with
much lower sample rates acceptable provided that the ratio of sample rate (LRCIN) to system
clock is maintained at the required 256fs or 384fs times.
The DACs on WM8725 are implemented using sigma-delta oversampled conversion
techniques. These require that the PCM samples are digitally filtered and interpolated to
generate a set of samples at a much higher rate than the 96ks/s input rate. This sample
stream is then digitally modulated to generate a digital pulse stream that is then converted to
analogue signals in a switched capacitor DAC. The advantage of this technique is that the
DAC is linearised using noise shaping techniques, allowing the full performance to be met
using non-critical analogue components. A further advantage is that the high sample rate at
the DAC output means that smoothing filters on the output of the DAC need only have fairly
crude characteristics in order to remove the characteristic steps, or images, on the output of
the DAC. To ensure that generation of tones characteristic to sigma-delta convertors is not a
problem, dithering is used in the digital modulator and a higher order modulator is used. The
switched capacitor technique used in the DAC reduces sensitivity to clock jitter compared to
switched current techniques used in other implementations.
De-emphasis of 44.1kHz signals may be applied if required.
DEEMPH
DESCRIPTION
0
De-emphasis is OFF
1
De-emphasis is ON
Table 3 De-emphasis Control
The voltage on the CAP pin is used as the reference for the DACs, therefore the amplitude of
the signals at the DAC outputs will scale with the amplitude of the voltage at the CAP. An
external reference could be used to drive into the CAP pin if desired, but a value typically of
about midrail should be used for optimum performance.

PD, Rev 4.3, February 2012

WM8725
Production Data
The outputs of the 2 DACs are buffered out of the device by buffer amplifiers. These
amplifiers will source load current of several mA and sink current up to 1.5mA, so allowing
significant loads to be driven. The output source is active and the sink is Class A, i.e. fixed
value, so greater loads might be driven if an external ‘pull-down’ resistor is connected at the
output.
Typically an external low pass filter circuit will be used to remove residual sampling noise of
the 64x oversampling used and if desired adjust the signal amplitude and device strength.
SERIAL DATA INTERFACE
WM8725 has serial interface formats that are fully compatible with both normal (MSB first, 16
2
bit right-justified) and I S interfaces. The data format is selected with the FORMAT pin. When
2
FORMAT is LOW, normal data format is selected. When the format is HIGH, I S format is
selected. It must be noted that in “packed” mode operation (exactly 32 BCLKs per LRCIN
period), the data word must align exactly with LRCIN clock edges (effectively both left and
2
right justified at the same time). This is true in both normal and I S modes.

SYSTEM CLOCK
The system clock is used to operate the digital filters and the noise shaping circuits. The
system clock input is at pin 14 (SCKI). The frequency of WM8725’s system clock should be
set to 256fs or 384fs, (where fs is the audio sampling frequency). The sample rate is typically:
32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz or 96kHz.
WM8725 has a system clock detection circuit that automatically determines whether the
system clock being supplied is at 256fs or 384fs. The system clock should be synchronised
with LRCIN, but WM8725 is tolerant of phase differences. Severe distortion in the phase
difference between LRCIN and the system clock will be detected, and cause the device to
automatically resynchronise. During resynchronisation, the output of the device will either
repeat the previous sample, or drop the next sample, depending on the nature of the phase
slip. This will ensure minimal “click“ at the analogue outputs during resynchronisation.

PCB LAYOUT
w
1.
Place all supply decoupling capacitors as close as possible to their respective supply
pins and provide a low impedance path from the capacitors to the appropriate ground.
2.
Separate analogue and digital ground planes should be situated under respective
analogue and digital device pins.
3.
Avoid noise on the CAP reference pin. The decoupling capacitor should be placed as
close to this pin as possible with a low impedance path from the capacitor to analogue
ground.
4.
Digital input signals should be screened from each other and from other sources of
noise to avoid cross-talk and interference. They should also run over the digital ground
plane to avoid introducing unwanted noise into the analogue ground plane.
5.
Analogue output signal tracks should be kept as short as possible and over the
analogue ground plane reducing the possibility of losing signal quality.
