[AK4468] 019001349-E-01 2019/06 - 5 - Functions Block Function PCM Data Interface Execute serial/parallel conversion of SDTI input data by synchronizing with LRCK and BICK. DSD Data Interface 1-bit data that is input from DSDL1/2/3/4 and DSDR1/2/3/4 pins is received by synchronizing with DCLK. DSD Filter FIR filter that reduces high frequency noise of DSD input data PCM / DSD Automatic Mode Switching Switch PCM/DSD modes by detecting PCM or DSD mode according to the input signal. DATT, Soft Mute Apply DATT and Soft Mute process to input data. ΔΣ Modulator Output multi-bit data to SCF. This block consists of a third-order digital delta-sigma modulator. De-emphasis & Interpolator A digital filter that applies De-emphasis process to input data and executes over sampling. SCF A primary switched capacitor filter that converts a multi-bit output of ΔΣ modulator to an analog signal. Control Register Keep register settings for each mode. Control registers are accessed in 3- wire (CSN, CCLK, CDTI) or I2C-Bus (SCL, SDA) control mode. Clock Divider Divide Master Clock In PCM mode, master clock is divided automatically by fs rate auto detection function. In DSD mode, the master clock frequency is set by DCKS bit. MCLK Stop Detection Detects when the master clock input is absent. Bias, Vref Generate SCF reference voltage from the reference voltage (VREFH1/2/3/4, VREFL1/2/3/4) that are externally supplied. LDO Generate power for internal digital circuit (1.8 V typ.).

[AK4468] 019001349-E-01 2019/06 - 93 - Grounding and Power Supply Decoupling To minimize coupling of digital noise, decoupling capacitors should be connected to AVDD, TVDD and VDD18. AVDD is supplied from analog supply in system, and TVDD and VDD18 are supplied from digital supply in system. Power line of AVDD should be distributed separately, from the point with low impedance of regulators or other parts. When not using the LDO (LDOE pin = “L”), TVDD must be powered up before or at the same time of VDD18. AVSS and DVSS must be connected to the same analog ground plane. Decoupling capacitors for high frequency should be placed as near as possible to the AK4468. Reference Voltage The VREFH1/2/3/4 pin is normally connected to 5.0 V reference voltage, and the VREFL1/2/3/4 pin is normally connected to the analog ground. Connect a 0.1 µF ceramic and a 100 µF electrolytic capacitors between VREFH1/2/3/4 and VREFL1/2/3/4. Especially the ceramic capacitors should be connected as near as possible to the pin. The potential difference between VREFH1/2/3/4 and VREFL1/2/3/4 set the full-scale of the analog output range. Therefore, the VREFH1/2/3/4 and VREFL1/2/3/4 pins should avoid noises from other power supplies. When it is difficult to obtain expected analog characteristics because of noises from other power supplies, connect the VREFH1/2/3/4 pin to the analog 5.0 V via a 10 Ω resistor, and the VREFL1/2/3/4 pin to the analog ground via a 10 Ω resistor. In addition, connect a 220 µF electrolytic capacitor between VREFH1/2/3/4 and VREFL1/2/3/4. A low pass filter of fc = 36 Hz will be composed with the 220 µF capacitor and the 10 Ω resistor. It removes differential noise between VREFH1/2/3/4 and VREFL1/2/3/4. All digital signals, especially clocks, should be kept away from the VREFH1/2/3/4 and VREFL1/2/3/4 pins in order to avoid unwanted coupling into the AK4468.
