Test conditions (unless otherwise specified): VCP = VA = V L = 3.3 V; AGND = DGND = CPGND = 0 V; SDIN = 0;
all voltages with respect to ground.
Notes: 15. Current consumption increases with increasing sample rate and increasing MCLK frequency. Typical
values are based on Fs = 48 kHz and MCLK = 12.288 MHz. Maximum values are based on highest
sample rate and highest MCLK frequency; see Switching Specifications - Serial Audio Interface. Vari-
ance between speed modes is small.
16. Power-down is defined as RESET pin = Low with all clock and data lines held static low. All digital inputs
have a weak pull-down (approximately 50 kΩ) which is only pr esent during reset. Opposing this pull-
down will slightly increase the power-down current.
17. Valid with the recommended capacitor value on VBIAS as shown in the typical connection dia gram in
Section 3.
18. Typical voltage shown for “Initialization State”, see Section 4.8. Typical voltage may be up to 1.5 V lower
during normal operation.

4. APPLICATIONS
4.1 Line Outputs
4.1.1 Ground-centered Outputs
An on-chip charge pump creates both positive and negative high-voltage supplies, which allows the full-
scale output swing to be centered around gr ound. This eliminates the need for large DC-blocking capac-
itors which create audible pop s at power-on, allows the CS4353 to deliver a larger full-scale output at low-
er supply voltages, and provides improved bandwidth frequency response.
4.1.2 Full-scale Output Amplitude Control
The full-scale output voltage amplitude is selected via the 1_2VRMS pin. When the pin is connected to
VL, the full-scale output voltage at the AOUTx pins is approximately 2 VRMS. When the pin is connected
to GND, the full-scale output voltage at the AOUTx pins is approximately 1 VRMS. Additional impedance
between the AOUTx pin and the load will lower the voltage delivered to the load. See the DAC Analog
Characteristics table for the complete specifications of the full-scale output voltage.
4.1.3 Pseudo-differential Outputs
The CS4353 implements a pseudo-differential outp ut stage. The AOUT_REF input is intended to be used
as a pseudo-differentia l reference signal. This feature pr ovides common mode noise rejection with single-
ended signals. Figure 4 shows a basic diagram outlining the internal implementation of the pseudo-differ-
ential output stage, includi ng a recommended stereo pseudo-differ ential output topology. If pseudo-differ-
ential output functionality is not required, simply connect the AOUT_REF pin to ground next to the
CS4353. If a split-ground design is used , the AOUT_REF pin should be connected to AGND. See the Ab-
solute Maxi mum Rati ngs table for the maximum allowa ble voltage on the AOUT_REF pin. Ap plying a DC
voltage on the AOUT_REF pin will caus e a DC offset on the DAC output.

4.2 Sample Rate Range/Operational Mode Detect
The CS4353 operates in one of three operational modes. The device will auto-detect the correct mode when
the input sample rate (Fs), defined by the LRCK frequency, falls within one of the ranges illustrated in
Table 2. Sample rates outside the specified range for each mode are not supported. In addition to a valid
LRCK frequency, a valid serial clock (SCLK) and master clock (MCLK) must also be applied to the device
for speed mode auto-detection; see Figure 9.
Table 2. CS4353 Operational Mode Auto-Detect
4.3 System Clocking
The device requires external generation of the master (MCLK), left/right (LRCK) and serial (SCLK) clocks.
The left/right clock, defined also as the input sample rate (Fs), must be synchronously derived from the
MCLK signal according to specified ratios. Th e specified ratios of MCLK to LRCK, along with several stan-
dard audio sample rates and the required MCLK frequency, are illustrated in Tables 3-5.
Refer to Section 4.4 for the required SCLK timing associated with the selected Digital Interface Format and
to “Switching Specifications - Serial Audio Interface” on page 9 for the maximum allowed clock frequencies.

4.4 Digital Interface Format
The device will accept audio samples in either I²S or Left-Justified digital interface formats, as illustrated in
Table 6.
The desired format is selected via the I²S/LJ pin. For an illustration of the required relationship between the
LRCK, SCLK an d SDIN, see Figures 5-6. For all formats, SDIN is valid on the rising edge of SCLK. Also,
SCLK must have at least 32 cycles per LRCK period in the Left-Justified format.

4.6 De-emphasis Control
The device includes on-chip digital de-emphasis. Figure 7 shows the de-emphasis curve for Fs equal to
44.1 kHz. The frequency response of the de-emphasis curve scales with changes in the sample rate, Fs.
The de-emphasis error will increase for sample rates other than 44.1 kHz.
When the DEM pin is connected to VL, the 44.1 kHz de-emphasis filter is activated. When the DEM pin is
connected to GND, the de-emphasis filter is turned off.
Note: De-emphasis is only availabl e in Single-Speed Mode.
4.7 Internal Power-on Reset
The CS4353 features an intern al power-on reset (POR) circ uit. The POR circuit allows the RESET pin to be
connected to VL during power-up and power-down sequences if the external rese t functi on is not need ed.
This circuit m onitors the VCP supply a nd automatically as serts or releases an internal reset of th e DAC’s
digital circuitry when the supply reaches defined thresholds (see “Internal Power-on Res et Th re sh o ld Vo lt-
ages” on page 10). No external clocks are required for the POR circuit to function.
Figure 8. Internal Power-on Reset Circuit
When power is first applied, the POR circuit monitors the VCP supply voltage to determine when it reaches
a defined threshold, Von1. At this time, the POR circuit asserts the internal reset low, resetting all of the
digital circuitry. Once the VCP supply reaches the secondary threshold, Von2, the POR circuit releases the
internal reset.
Note: For correct operation of the internal POR circuit, the voltage on VL must rise before or simulta-
neously with VCP.
When power is remove d and the VCP voltage rea ches a defined th reshold, Voff, the POR circuit asserts the
internal reset low, resetting all of th e dig ita l circu itry .

4.8 Initialization
When power is first applied, the DAC enters a reset (low power) state at the beginning of the initialization
sequence. In this state, the AOUTx pins are weakly pulled to ground and VBIAS is connected to VA.
The device will remain in the reset state until the RESET pin is brought high. Once the RESET pin is high,
the internal digital circuitry is reset and the DAC enters a power-down state until MCLK is applied. Alterna-
tively, if no external reset control is required, the internal power-on reset can be used by tying the RESET
pin to VL (see Section 4.7).
Once MCLK is valid, the device enters an initialization state in which the charge pump powers up and charg-
es the capacitors for both the positive and ne gative high-voltage supplies.
Once LRCK and SCLK are valid, the numbe r of MCLK cycles is counted rel ative to the LRCK pe riod to de-
termine the MCLK/LRCK frequency ratio. Next, the device enters the power-up state in which the interpo-
lation and decimation filters and delta-sigma modulators are turned on, the internal voltage reference,
VBIAS, powers up to normal operation, the analog output pull-down resistors are removed, and power is
applied to the output amplifiers.
After this power-up state sequence is complete, normal operation begins and analog output is generated.
If valid MCLK, LRCK, and SCLK are applied to the DAC before RESET is set high, the total time from RE-
SET being set high to the analog audio output from AOUTx is less than 50 ms.
See Figure 9 for a diagram of the device’s states and transition conditions.

4.9 Recommended Power-up and Power-down Sequences
4.9.1 Power-up Sequences
4.9.1.1 External RESET Power-up Sequence
Follow the power-up sequence below if the external RESET pin is used:
1. Hold RESET low while the power supplies are turned on.
2. Set the I²S/LJ, 1_2VRMS, and DEM configuration pins to the desired state.
3. Provide the correct MCLK, LRCK, and SCLK signals locked to the appropriate frequencies as
discussed in Section 4.3.
4. After the power supplies, configuration pins, and clock signals are stable, bring RESET high. The
device will initiate the power-up sequence seen in Figure 9. The sequence will complete and audio
will be output from AOUTx within 50 ms after RESET is set high.
4.9.1.2 Internal Power-on Reset Power-up Sequence
Follow the power-up sequence below if the internal power-on reset is used:
1. Hold RESET high (connected to VL) while the power supplies are turned on. The power-on reset
circuitry will function as described in Section 4.7.
2. Set the I²S/LJ, 1_2VRMS, and DEM configuration pins to the desired state.
3. After the power supplies and configuration pins are stable, provide the correct MCLK, LRCK, and
SCLK signals to progress from the ‘Power- Do wn State’ in the power-up sequence seen in Figure 9.
The sequence will complete and audio will be output from the AOUTx pins within 50 ms after valid
clocks are applied.
4.9.2 Power-down Sequences
4.9.2.1 External RESET Power-down Sequence
Follow the power- down sequence below if the external RESET pin is used:
1. For minimal pops, set the input digital data to zero for at least 8192 consecutive samples.
2. Bring RESET low.
3. Remove the power supply voltages.
4.9.2.2 Internal Power-on Reset Power-down Sequence
Follow the power-down sequence below if the internal power-on reset is used:
1. For minimal pops, set the input digital data to zero for at least 8192 consecutive samples.
2. Remove the MCLK signal without applying any glitched pulses to the MCLK pin.
3. Remove the power supply voltages.
Note: A glitched pulse is any pulse that is shorter than the period defined by the minimum/maximum
MCLK signal duty cycle specification and the nominal frequency of the input MCLK signal. A transient may
occur on the analog outputs if the MCLK signal duty cycle specification is vio lated when the MCLK signal
is removed during normal oper ation; see “Switching Specifications - Serial Audio Interface” on page 9.

4.10 Grounding and Power Supply Arrangements
As with any high-resolu tion converter, the CS4353 requir es careful attention to power supply and grounding
arrangements if its potential performance is to be realized. Figure 3 shows the recommended power ar-
rangements, with VCP, VA, and VL connected to clean supplies. It is strongly recommended that a single
ground plane be used, with the DGND, CPGND, and AGND pins all connected to this common plane.
Should it be nece ssary to split the ground planes, the DGND a nd CPGND pins should b e connecte d to the
digital ground plane and the AGND pin should be connected to the analog ground plane. In this configura-
tion, it is critical that the digital and analog groun d planes be tied together with a low-impedance connection,
ideally a strip of copper on the printed circuit board, at a single point near the CS4353 .
All signals, especially clocks, should be kept away from the VBIAS pin in order to a void unwa nted coupling
into the DAC.
4.10.1 Capacitor Placement
Decoupling capacitors should be placed as close to the device as possible, with the low-value ceramic
capacitor being the closest. To further minimize impedance, these capacitors should be located on the
same PCB layer as the device. If desired, all supply pins may be connected to the same supply, but a
decoupling capacitor should still be placed on each supply pin. See DC Electrical Characteristics for the
voltage present across pin pair s. This is useful for choosin g appropriate capacitor voltage ratings and ori-
entation if electrolytic capacitors are used.
The CDB4353 evaluation board demonstrates the optimum layout and power supply arrangements.

6. PARAMETER DEFINITIONS
Total Harmonic Distortion + Noise (THD+N)
The ratio of the RMS value of the signal to th e RMS sum of all other spectral compone nts over the specified
bandwidth (typically 10 Hz to 20 kHz), including distortion components. Expressed in decibels.
Dynamic Range
The ratio of the full-scale RMS value of the signal to the RMS sum of all other spectral components over the
specified bandwidth. Dynamic range is a signal-to-noise measurement over the sp e cifie d b an d width ma de
with a -60 dBFS signal. 60 dB is then added to the resulting measurement to refer the measurement to full
scale. This technique ensures that t he distortion components are below the noise leve l and do not affect the
measurement. This measurement technique ha s been accepted by the Aud io Engineering Society, AES17-
1991, and the Electronic Industries Association of Japan, EIAJ CP-307.
Interchannel Isolation
A measure of crosstalk between the left and right channels. Measured for each ch annel a t the conver ter's
output with all zeros to the input under test and a full-scale signal applied to the other channel. Units in de ci-
bels.
Interchannel Gain Mismatch
The gain difference between left and right channels. Units in decibels.
Gain Drift
The change in gain value with temperature. Units in ppm/°C.
