Device Operation
System Clock Input
Three clocks are required to operate the AK5393: the
Master Clock (MCLK), the Left/Right Channels Select
Clock (LRCK), and the Serial Data Clock (SCLK). Refer
to Table 1. The MCLK should be synchronized with the
LRCK, but the phase is not critical. MCLK should be
256fs when in the normal sampling mode (i.e. DFS =
Low), and should be 128fs when in the double sampling
mode. Table 2 shows the standard audio word rates and
their corresponding frequencies.
Table 1. System Clocks
Table 2. System Clocks
The AK5393 includes a phase detect circuit for the
LRCK; thus, by changing the clock frequencies, the
device is reset automatically when synchronization of
MCLK on LRCK is not maintained. With this feature,
resetting the AK5393 is only needed during power-up.
Ideally, all e xternal clocks—MCLK, BICK, and LRCK—
should always be present whenever the AK5393 is in
normal operation (that is, when RST is High). In real
applications, however, one or more of these clocks may
not be present for a short amount of time. When this
occurs, the AK5393 should be reset by setting the RST
pin Low, which resets and powers do wn the de vice. Once
all the clocks hav e been reinstated, the RST pin can again
be set High for normal operation, completing the reset
procedure.
Serial Data Interface
The AK5393 supports four serial data formats which can
be selected using the SMODE1 and SMODE2 pins.
Refer to Table 3. The data format is MSB first and
2’s complement. Figures 6 through 9 show the timing
diagrams for the four different types of serial data
formats.

Caution:
Due to its internal dynamic refresh logic,
prolonged periods of time without external clock
input may result in damage to the device.
