GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD1837A is a high performance single-chip codec featuring
four stereo DACs and one stereo ADC. Each DAC comprises a
high performance digital interpolation filter, a multibit -
modulator featuring Analog Devices’ patented technology, and a
continuous-time voltage out analog section. Each DAC has independent volume control and clickless mute functions. The ADC
comprises two 24-bit conversion channels with multibit S-D
modulators and decimation filters.
The AD1837A also contains an on-chip reference with a nominal
value of 2.25 V.
The AD1837A contains a flexible serial interface that allows for
glueless connection to a variety of DSP chips, AES/EBU receivers,
and sample rate converters. The AD1837A can be configured in
left-justified, right-justified, I2S, or DSP compatible serial modes.
Control of the AD1837A is achieved by means of an SPI compatible serial port. While the AD1837A can be operated from a single
5 V supply, it also features a separate supply pin for its digital interface, which allows the device to be interfaced to other devices using
3.3 V power supplies.
The AD1837A is available in a 52-lead MQFP package and is specified for the industrial temperature range of –40ºC to +85ºC.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although
the AD1837A features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on
devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are
recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

TERMINOLOGY
Dynamic Range
Gain Drift
The ratio of a full-scale input signal to the integrated input noise
in the pass band (20 Hz to 20 kHz), expressed in decibels (dB).
Dynamic range is measured with a –60 dB input signal and is
equal to (S/[THD + N]) + 60 dB. Note that spurious harmonics
are below the noise with a –60 dB input, so the noise level
establishes the dynamic range. The dynamic range is specified
with and without an A-weight filter applied.
Signal-to-(Total Harmonic Distortion + Noise)
[S/(THD + N)]
The ratio of the root-mean-square (rms) value of the fundamental input signal to the rms sum of all other spectral components in the pass band, expressed in decibels (dB).
Change in response to a near full-scale input with a change in
temperature, expressed as parts-per-million (ppm) per ∞C.
Crosstalk (EIAJ Method)
Ratio of response on one channel with a grounded input to a
full-scale 1 kHz sine wave input on the other channel, expressed
in decibels.
Power Supply Rejection
With no analog input, signal present at the output when a
300 mV p-p signal is applied to power supply pins, expressed
in decibels of full scale.
Group Delay
Intuitively, the time interval required for an input pulse to
appear at the converter’s output, expressed in microseconds
(ms). More precisely, the derivative of radian phase with
respect to radian frequency at a given frequency.
Pass Band
The region of the frequency spectrum unaffected by the attenuation of the digital decimator’s filter.
Group Delay Variation
Pass-Band Ripple
The peak-to-peak variation in amplitude response from equalamplitude input signal frequencies within the pass band, expressed
in decibels.
The difference in group delays at different input frequencies.
Specified as the difference between largest and the smallest
group delays in the pass band, expressed in microseconds (ms).
Stop Band
ACRONYMS
The region of the frequency spectrum attenuated by the
digital decimator’s filter to the degree specified by stop-band
attenuation.
ADC—Analog-to-Digital Converter.
Gain Error

AD1837A
FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW
ADCs
Table I. Coding Scheme
There are two ADC channels in the AD1837A, configured as a
stereo pair. Each ADC has fully differential inputs. The ADC
section can operate at a sample rate of up to 96 kHz. The ADCs
include on-board digital decimation filters with 120 dB stop-band
attenuation and linear phase response, operating at an oversampling ratio of 128 (for 48 kHz operation) or 64 (for 96 kHz
operation).
ADC peak level information for each ADC may be read from the
ADC Peak 0 and ADC Peak 1 registers. The data is supplied as
a 6-bit word with a maximum range of 0 dB to –63 dB and a
resolution of 1 dB. The registers will hold peak information until
read; after reading, the registers are reset so that new peak
information can be acquired. Refer to the register description
for details on the format. The two ADC channels have a common serial bit clock and a left-right framing clock. The clock
signals are all synchronous with the sample rate.
The ADC digital pins, ABCLK and ALRCLK, can be set to
operate as inputs or outputs by connecting the M/S pin to
ODVDD or DGND, respectively. When the pins are set as
outputs, the AD1837A will generate the timing signals. When
the pins are set as inputs, the timing must be generated by
the external audio controller.
DACs
The AD1837A has eight DAC channels arranged as four independent stereo pairs, with eight single-ended analog outputs for
improved noise and distortion performance. Each channel has
its own independently programmable attenuator, adjustable in
1024 linear steps. Digital inputs are supplied through four serial
data input pins (one for each stereo pair) and a common frame
(DLRCLK) and bit (DBLCK) clock. Alternatively, one of the
packed data modes may be used to access all eight channels on a
single TDM data pin. A stereo replicate feature is included where
the DAC data sent to the first DAC pair is also sent to the
other DACs in the part. The AD1837A can accept DAC data at
a sample rate of 192 kHz on DAC 1 only. The stereo replicate feature can then be used to copy the audio data to the
other DACs.
Each of the output pins sits at a dc level of VREF and swings
± 1.4 V for a 0 dB digital input signal. A single op amp thirdorder external low-pass filter is recommended to remove high
frequency noise present on the output pins. Note that the use of
op amps with low slew rate or low bandwidth may cause high
frequency noise and tones to fold down into the audio band;
care should be exercised in selecting these components.
The FILTD pin should be connected to an external grounded
capacitor. This pin is used to reduce the noise of the internal
DAC bias circuitry, thereby reducing the DAC output noise. In
some cases, this capacitor may be eliminated with little affect
on performance.

AD1837A CLOCKING SCHEME
By default, the AD1837A requires an MCLK signal that is
256 times the required sample frequency up to a maximum of
12.288 MHz. The AD1837A uses a clock scaler to double the
clock frequency for internal use. The default setting of the clock
scaler is multiply by two. The clock scaler can also be set to
multiply by 1 (bypass) or multiply by 2/3. The internal MCLK
signal, IMCLK, should not exceed 24.576 MHz in order to
ensure correct operation.
The MCLK of the AD1837A should remain constant during
normal operation of the DAC and ADC. If it is required to
change the MCLK rate, the AD1837A should be reset. Additionally, if MCLK scaler needs to be modified so that the IMCLK
does not exceed 24.576 MHz, this should be done during the
internal reset phase of the AD1837A by programming the bits in
the first 3072 MCLK periods following the reset.
Selecting DAC Sampling Rate
The AD1837A DAC engine has a programmable interpolator
that allows the user to select different interpolation rates
based on the required sample rate and MCLK value available. Table II shows the settings required for sample rates
based on a fixed MCLK of 12.288 MHz.

Selecting an ADC Sample Rate
The AD1837A ADC engine has a programmable decimator
that allows the user to select the sample rate based on the
MCLK value. By default, the output sample rate is IMCLK/
512. To achieve a sample rate of IMCLK/256, the sample
rate bit in the ADC Control 1 register should be set as shown
in Table III.

DAC and ADC Coding
The DAC and ADC output data stream is in a twos complement encoded format. The word width can be selected from
16 bit, 20 bit, or 24 bit. The coding scheme is detailed
in Table I.
REV. A
To maintain the highest performance possible, it is recommended
that the clock jitter of the master clock signal be limited to less
than 300 ps rms, measured using the edge-to-edge technique.
Even at these levels, extra noise or tones may appear in the

DAC outputs if the jitter spectrum contains large spectral peaks.
It is highly recommended that the master clock be generated by
an independent crystal oscillator. In addition, it is especially
important that the clock signal not be passed through an FPGA
or other large digital chip before being applied to the AD1837A.
In most cases, this will induce clock jitter due to the fact that
the clock signal is sharing common power and ground connections with other unrelated digital output signals.
Power-Down and RESET
PD/RST powers down the chip and sets the control registers to
their default settings. After PD/RST is de-asserted, an initialization
routine runs inside the AD1837A to clear all memories to zero.
This initialization lasts for approximately 20 LRCLK intervals.
During this time, it is recommended that no SPI writes occur.
Power Supply and Voltage Reference
The AD1837A is designed for 5 V supplies. Separate power
supply pins are provided for the analog and digital sections.
These pins should be bypassed with 100 nF ceramic chip capacitors, as close to the pins as possible, to minimize noise pickup. A
bulk aluminum electrolytic capacitor of at least 22 mF should also
be provided on the same PC board as the codec. For critical applications, improved performance will be obtained with separate supplies for the analog and digital sections. If this is not possible, it is
recommended that the analog and digital supplies be isolated by
means of two ferrite beads in series with the bypass capacitor of
each supply. It is important that the analog supply be as clean
as possible.
The internal voltage reference is brought out on the FILTR pin
and should be bypassed as close as possible to the chip, with a
parallel combination of 10 mF and 100 nF. The reference voltage
may be used to bias external op amps to the common-mode
voltage of the analog input and output signal pins. The current
drawn from the VREF pin should be limited to less than 50 mA.
Serial Control Port
The AD1837A has an SPI compatible control port to permit
programming the internal control registers for the ADCs and
DACs and for reading the ADC signal levels from the internal
peak detectors. The SPI control port is a 4-wire serial control port.
The format is similar to the Motorola SPI format except the
input data-word is 16 bits wide. The maximum serial bit clock
frequency is 12.5 MHz and may be completely asynchronous to
the sample rate of the ADCs and DACs. Figure 3 shows the
format of the SPI signal.
Serial Data Ports—Data Format
The ADC serial data output mode defaults to the popular I2S
format, where the data is delayed by one BCLK interval from
the edge of the LRCLK. By changing Bits 6 to 8 in ADC
–12–
REV. A
AD1837A
Control Register 2, the serial mode can be changed to rightjustified (RJ), left-justified DSP (DSP), or left-justified (LJ).
In the RJ mode, it is necessary to set Bits 4 and 5 to define the
width of the data-word.
Auxiliary (TDM) Mode
A special auxiliary mode is provided to allow three external stereo
ADCs to be interfaced to the AD1837A to provide 8-in/8-out
operation. In addition, this mode supports glueless interface to a
single SHARC® DSP serial port, allowing a SHARC DSP to
access all eight channels of analog I/O. In this special mode,
many pins are redefined; see Table IV for a list of redefined pins.
The DAC serial data input mode defaults to I2S. By changing
Bits 5, 6, and 7 in DAC Control Register 1, the mode can be
changed to RJ, DSP, LJ, Packed Mode 1, or Packed Mode 2. The
word width defaults to 24 bits but can be changed by reprogramming Bits 3 and 4 in DAC Control Register 1.
The auxiliary and the TDM interfaces are independently
configurable to operate as masters or slaves. When the auxiliary
interface is set as a master, by programming the Auxiliary Mode
bit in ADC Control Register 2, AUXLRCLK and AUXBCLK are
generated by the AD1837A. When the auxiliary interface is set
as a slave, AUXLRCLK and AUXBCLK need to be generated
by an external ADC, as shown in Figure 13.
Packed Modes
The AD1837A packed mode allows a DSP or other controller to
write to all DACs and read all ADCs using one input data pin
and one output data pin. Packed Mode 256 refers to the number
of BCLKs in each frame. The LRCLK is low while data from a
left channel DAC or ADC is on the data pin and high while data
from a right channel DAC or ADC is on the data pin. DAC data is
applied on the DSDATA1 pin, and ADC data is available on the
ASDATA pin. Figures 7 to 10 show the timing for the packed
mode. Packed mode is available for 48 kHz and 96 kHz.
LRCLK
The TDM interface can be set to operate as a master or slave by
connecting the M/S pin to DGND or ODVDD, respectively. In
master mode, the FSTDM and BCLK signals are outputs generated by the AD1837A. In slave mode, FSTDM and BCLK are
inputs and should be generated by the SHARC. Both 48 kHz
and 96 kHz operations are available (based on a 12.288 MHz or
24.576 MHz MCLK) in this mode.

AD1837A
CONTROL/STATUS REGISTERS
DAC Volume Control
The AD1837A has 15 control registers, 13 of which are used to
set the operating mode of the part. The other two registers,
ADC Peak 0 and ADC Peak 1, are read-only and should not be
programmed. Each of the registers is 10 bits wide with the
exception of the ADC peak reading registers which are six bits
wide. Writing to a control register requires a 16-bit data frame
to be transmitted. Bits 15 to 12 are the address bits of the
required register. Bit 11 is a read/write bit. Bit 10 is reserved
and should always be programmed to 0. Bits 9 to 0 contain the
10-bit value that is to be written to the register or, in the case of
a read operation, the 10-bit register contents. Figure 3 shows
the format of the SPI read and write operation.
Each DAC in the AD1837A has its own independent volume
control. The volume of each DAC can be adjusted in 1024
linear steps by programming the appropriate register. The
default value for this register is 1023, which provides no attenuation, i.e., full volume.
DAC CONTROL REGISTERS
The AD1837A register map has 10 registers that control the
functionality of the DAC section of the part. The function of the
bits in these registers is discussed in the following sections.
Sample Rate
These bits control the sample rate of the DACs. Based on a
24.576 MHz IMCLK, sample rates of 48 kHz, 96 kHz, and
192 kHz are available. The MCLK scaling bits in ADC Control 3
should be programmed appropriately, based on the master
clock frequency.
Power-Down/Reset
This bit controls the power-down status of the DAC section.
By default, normal mode is selected, but by setting this bit, the
digital section of the DAC stage can be put into a low power
mode, thus reducing the digital current. The analog output
section of the DAC stage is not powered down.
DAC Data-Word Width
These two bits set the word width of the DAC data. Compact
disc (CD) compatibility may require 16 bits, but many modern
digital audio formats require 24-bit sample resolution.
DAC Data Format
The AD1837A serial data interface can be configured to be
compatible with a choice of popular interface formats including
I2S, LJ, RJ, or DSP modes. Details of these interface modes
are given in the Serial Data Port section of this data sheet.
De-emphasis
The AD1837A provides built-in de-emphasis filtering for the
three standard sample rates of 32.0 kHz, 44.1 kHz, and 48 kHz.
Mute DAC
Each of the eight DACs in the AD1837A has its own independent
mute control. Setting the appropriate bit mutes the DAC output. The AD1837A uses a clickless mute function that attenuates
the output to approximately –100 dB over a number of cycles.
Stereo Replicate
Setting this bit copies the digital data sent to the stereo pair DAC1
to the three other stereo DACs in the system. This allows all
four stereo DACs to be driven by one digital data stream. Note
that in this mode, DAC data sent to the other DACs is ignored.
REV. A
ADC CONTROL REGISTERS
The AD1837A register map has five registers that are used to
control the functionality and read the status of the ADCs. The
function of the bits in each of these registers is discussed in the
following sections.
ADC Peak Level
These two registers store the peak ADC result from each channel
when the ADC peak readback function is enabled. The peak result
is stored as a 6-bit number from 0 dB to –63 dB in 1 dB steps.
The value contained in the register is reset once it has been read,
allowing for continuous level adjustment as required. Note that
the ADC peak level registers use the 6 MSB in the register to
store the results.
Sample Rate
This bit controls the sample rate of the ADCs. Based on a
24.576 MHz IMCLK, sample rates of 48 kHz and 96 kHz are
available. The MCLK scaling bits in ADC Control Register 3
should be programmed appropriately based on the master clock
frequency.
ADC Power-Down
This bit controls the power-down status of the ADC section and
operates in a similar manner to the DAC power-down.
High-Pass Filter
The ADC signal path has a digital high-pass filter. Enabling this
filter removes the effect of any dc offset in the analog input
signal from the digital output codes.
ADC Data-Word Width
These two bits set the word width of the ADC data.
ADC Data Format
The AD1837A serial data interface can be configured to be
compatible with a choice of popular interface formats, including
I2S, LJ, RJ, or DSP modes.
Master/Slave Auxiliary Mode
When the AD1837A is operating in the auxiliary mode, the
auxiliary ADC control pins, AUXBCLK and AUXLRCLK, that
connect to the external ADCs, can be set to operate as a master
or slave. If the pins are set in slave mode, one of the external
ADCs should provide the LRCLK and BCLK signals.
ADC Peak Readback
Setting this bit enables ADC peak reading. See the ADCs section
for more information.

AD1837A
With Device 1 set as a master, it will generate the frame-sync
and bit clock signals. These signals are sent to the SHARC and
Device 2 ensuring that both know when to send and receive data.
CASCADE MODE
Dual AD1837A Cascade
The AD1837A can be cascaded to an additional AD1837A,
which, in addition to six external stereo ADCs, can be used to
create a 32-channel audio system with 16 inputs and 16 outputs.
The cascade is designed to connect to a SHARC DSP and operates
in a time division multiplexing (TDM) format. Figure 14 shows
the connection diagram for cascade operation. The digital interface for both parts must be set to operate in Auxiliary 512 mode
by programming ADC Control Register 2. AD1837A No. 1 is
set as a master device by connecting the M/S pin to DGND and
AD1837A No.2 is set as a slave device by connecting the M/S to
ODVDD. Both devices should be run from the same MCLK
and PD/RST signals to ensure that they are synchronized.

The cascade can be thought of as two 256-bit shift registers, one
for each device. At the beginning of a sample interval, the shift
registers contain the ADC results from the previous sample
interval. The first shift register (Device 1) clocks data into the
SHARC and also clocks in data from the second shift register
(Device 2). While this is happening, the SHARC is sending
DAC data to the second shift register. By the end of the sample
interval, all 512 bits of ADC data in the shift registers will have
been clocked into the SHARC and been replaced by DAC data,
which is subsequently written to the DACs. Figure 15 shows the
timing diagram for the cascade operation.
