SM6451B Audio Variable Volume IC OVERVIEW The SM6451B is a 3-wire serial-controlled electronic variable volume IC for audio applications. It provides electronic volume control for a stereo system (left and right channels), and independent channel attenuation and muting, with greatly enhanced digital zip noise suppression. The chip address function allows up to four SM6451B devices to be connected and individually controlled over the 3-wire control interface from a single CPU. It is available in 16-pin TSSOP packages.

Microcontroller data input timing Data is shifted into the internal shift register on the rising edge of MCK, and the attenuation value is updated on the rising edge of MLEN. Accordingly, data on MDT should be changed on the falling edge of MCK. Note, however, a minimum of 16 MCK input pulses are required.

The device is addressed only when ADRS1:ADRS2 matches D13:D12. Example 1: If D13 = LOW, D12 = HIGH and ADRS1 = LOW, ADRS2 = LOW, then the device is not addressed since ADRS2 and D12 do not match. Example 2: If D13/D12 = LOW and ADRS1/ADRS2 = LOW, then the device is addressed and all input data is read and the attenuation settings updated. D11, D10 Don’t care.

Attenuation error is changed dependent on the supply voltage when attenuation level is under – 60dB. In the case of the supply voltage being under 2.6V, mute level inverses up to the same level of – 80dB setting or more.

In addition, approximately 0.01 µF capacitors should also be connected from AVDD, VRL, VRR to AVSS, and from DVDD to DVSS to suppress digital switch noise. An approximately 0.001 µF capacitor connected from RSTN to DVSS will force a system reset when power is applied.
