FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
System Clock/Speed Switching (XTI, XTO, CKO, CKSL)
Note that the input clock accuracy and signal-tonoise ratio greatly influence the AC analog characteristics. Accordingly, care should be taken to ensure
that the clock is free from jitter.
The system clock on XTI can be set to run at one of
two speeds, 384fs (normal speed) or 768fs (doublespeed), where fs is the input frequency on LRCI. The
speed for CD playback is set by the input level on
CKSL, as shown in table 1.
The system clock can be controlled by a crystal
oscillator comprising a crystal connected between
XTI and XTO and the built-in CMOS inverter. Alternatively, an external system clock can be input on
XTI. As the internal CMOS inverter has a feedback
resistor, the external clock can be AC coupled to
XTI. The system clock is output on CKO.

The device is reset by applying a LOW-level pulse on
RSTN. At system reset, the internal arithmetic operation and output timing counter are synchronized on
the next LRCI rising edge, as shown in figure 1.

At power-ON reset (when RSTN goes LOW), the
outputs LO (LON) and RO (RON) enter the output
mute state. Mute is released on the 9th LRCI rising
edge after RSTN goes HIGH. During this cycle, the
timing reset can cause output noise to be generated.

Infinity-Zero Detector (analog mute control) Output (MUTEO)
The SM5876AM outputs an infinity-zero detection
output signal under the following circumstances.
1. When an infinity-zero occurs on both the left and
right channels.
2. When an infinity-zero occurs in the input data for
the channel set by the output mode setting.
3. When the output mode setting is muting for both
the left and right channels.
4. When the attenuation counter for both the left and
right channels is 0 (−∞).
Also from immediately after a reset input on RSTN
until the initialization cycle finishes and the first data
cycle occurs.
In cases 1 and 2, from when an infinity-zero is
detected a period of 214 × (1/fs) ≈ 0.37 seconds takes
place before MUTEO goes HIGH.
In cases 3 and 4, from when the attenuation counter
value is 0 a period of 214 × (1/fs) ≈ 0.37 seconds
takes place before MUTEO goes HIGH.

Audio Data Input (DI, BCKI, LRCI)
The digital audio data is input on DI in MSB-first,
2s-complement, 16-bit serial format.
Serial data bits are read into the SIPO register (serialto-parallel converter register) on the rising edge of
the bit clock BCKI.
The arithmetic operation and output timing are independent of the input timing. Accordingly, after a
reset, as long as the clock frequency ratio between
LRCI and the system clock XTI is maintained, phase
differences between LRCI, BCKI and the system
clock XTI do not affect the functional operation.
Also, any jitter present on the data input clock does
not appear as output pulse jitter.
The bit clock frequency on BCKI should be between
32fs and 64fs.
Operating Modes (MLEN, MDT, MCK)
The microcontroller data is used to control the following parameters.
Digital attenuator
Digital attenuation is controlled by attenuation data
input on MDT.
MDT, can control the left and right channels either
independently or together (independent when the
MDT attenuation control flag is LOW, and together
when HIGH).
The left-channel counter contents DATTL and the
right-channel counter contents DATTR control the
left-channel gain and right-channel gain, respectively, using the following equations.
DATTL
Left-channel gain = 20 × log  ------------------- [dB]
 255 
DATTR
Right-channel gain = 20 × log  -------------------- [dB]
 255 
After system reset initialization, independent
left/right-channel attenuation mode with the maximum gain of 0 dB is the default.
Deemphasis filter (MDT DEM flag)
The built-in digital deemphasis filter is designed to
operate at 44.1 kHz. Deemphasis is ON when the
DEM flag is HIGH, and OFF when the DEM flag is
LOW. After reset, deemphasis OFF is the default.
The attenuation operation is determined by a mathematical operation of the internal 8-bit up/down
counter’s output data on the signal data. The 8-bit
up/down counter, when attenuation data is input on

Stereo
“Stereo” is the default after system reset.
“Mute” refers to soft muting.
Soft mute (output mode setting)
The channel output muting set by the output mode
control 4-bit data is soft mute mode.
The attenuation counter output decrements by 1 step
at a time, reducing the gain. The signal is completely
muted after a time of (1024/fs), which corresponds to
approximately 23.2 ms when fs = 44.1 kHz.
Conversely, when soft mute is released using the output mode control, the attenuation counter output
increments by 1 step at a time, increasing the gain.
The time taken to return to 0 dB from full muting is
also (1024/fs).
When an attenuation value is set, the output gain
decreases from the value set by the attenuation data
until the gain is −∞. Similarly for mute release, the
output gain increases from the current value until the
gain is 0 dB.
Upon system reset initialization, mute is released,
which corresponds to the maximum gain of 0 dB.

Attenuator control (ATC flag)
The attenuator control (ATC) flag is input on MDT.
When the ATC flag is HIGH, the left-channel and
right-channel attenuator data is common. In this
mode, the left-channel data is used for both channels.
Soft mute operation is shown in figure 3.
