GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AK4620B is a high performance 24-bit CODEC that supports up to 192kHz record and playback. The
on-board analog-to-digital converter has a high dynamic range due to AKM’s Enhanced Dual-Bit
architecture. Th e DAC utilizes AKM’s Advanced Multi-Bit architecture that achieves low out-of-band noise
and high jitter tolerance through the use of Switched Capacitor Filter (SCF) technology. The AK4620B has
an input Programmable Gain Amplifier and is ideal for Pro Audio sound cards, Digital Audio Workstations,
DVD-R, hard disk, CD-R recording/playback systems, and musical instrument recording.

OPERATION OVERVIEW
D/A Conversion Mode
In serial mode, the AK4620B can digitize either PCM data or DSD data. The P/D bit controls PCM/DSD mode. When
DSD m ode, DSD data input occurs on DCLK, DS DL and DSDR pins. The ADC and IPGA are in power down mode. In
PCM mode, PCM data input occurs on BICK, SDTI and LRCK pins. When PCM/DSD mode changes (D/P bit), the
AK4620B should be reset by setting RSTAD and RSTDA bits to “0” or by grounding the PDN pin. It takes from 2/fs to
3/fs to change the mode. In parallel mode, AK4620B can only process PCM data.
D/P bit DAC mode ADC mode
0 PCM PCM
1 DSD Power down
Table 1. DSD/PCM Mode Control
System Clock Input
1. PCM Mode
AK4620B requires MC LK, BICK and LRCK external clocks. MCLK should be sync hronized with LRCK but the phase
is not critic al. External clocks (MCLK, BIC K and LRCK) should alw ays be present whenever t he AK4620B is i n normal
operation mode (PDN pin = “H” and either the ADC and DAC is in normal operation mode). If these cl ocks are not
provided, the AK4620B may draw excess current due to dynamic refresh of internal logic. If the external clocks are not
present, the AK4620B should be in the power-down mode (PDN pin = “L” or power down both the ADC and DAC by the
register). After e xiting reset (PDN pin = “L” Æ H”) at power-up etc., the AK4620B is in power-down mode until MCLK
and LRCK are provided.
As the AK4620B includes the phase detect circuit for LRCK, the AK4620B is reset automatically when the
synchronization is out of phas e by changing the clock frequencies.
1-1. Serial mode (P/S pin= “L”)
As shown in Table 2, Ta ble 3 and Table 4, select the MCLK frequency by setting CMODE, CKS0-1 and DFS0-1
(DFS0 bit and DFS0 pin are internally ORd). These registers are changed when RSTAD bit = RSTDA bit = “0”.

2. DSD Mode
The external clocks, which are required to operate the AK4620B, are MCLK and DCLK. The master clock (MCLK)
should be synchronized with DSD clock (DCLK) but the phase is not critical. The frequency of MCLK is set by DCKS
bit.
All external cloc ks (MCLK , DCLK) must be pre sent whenever the AK4620B i s in the norma l opera t ion m ode (P DN pin
= “H”). If these cl ocks are not provided, the AK4620B may draw excess current bec ause the device utilizes dynamically
refreshed logi c. The AK4620B should be reset by PDN pin = “L” aft er these clocks are provide d. If the external clocks are
not present, the AK4620B should be in the power-down mode (PDN pin = “L”). After exiting reset (PDN pin = “”) at
power-up etc., the AK4620B is in the power-down mode until MCLK is provided.
Audio Serial Interface Format

Input Volume
The AK4620B includes two channel-independent analog volumes (IPGA), each with 32 levels in 0.5dB increments.
These are located in front of the ADC while digital volume controls (IATT) with 128 levels (including MUTE) are
located aft er the ADC. Control of both of these volume set tings is handled by the sam e register address. When the MSB of
the register is “1”, the IPGA changes and when the MSB = “0” t he IATT changes.
The IPGA is an analog volume control that improves the S/N ratio compared with digital volume controls (Table 11).
Level changes only occur during zero-crossings to minimize switching noise. Channel independent zero-crossing
detection is used. If there are no zero-crossings, then the level will change after a time-out. The time-out period scales
with fs. The periods of 256/fs, 512/fs, 1024/fs and 2048/fs are selected by ZTM1-0 bits in normal speed mode. If a new
value is written to the IPGA register before the IPGA changes at the zero crossing or time-out, the previous value
becomes invalid. The timer (channel independent) for time-out is reset and the timer restarts for the new IPGA value.
ZCEI bits in the control register enable zero-crossing detection.
The IATT is a log volume that is linear-interpol ated internally. When changing the level, the transition between ATT
values has 29 levels and is done by soft changes, eliminating any switching noise.

Overflow Detection
The ADC has a cha nnel independent overflow detecti on function. This function is enable d in the parallel c ontrol mode, or
when the ZOS bit = ZOE bit = “0”in seri al control mode. OVF L/R pins go to “H” i f each Lch/Rch analog i nput overflows
(exceeds -0.3dBFS). The output of each OVFL/R pin has sam e group delay a s ADC against analog input. OVFL/R pin is
“L” for 516/fs (=10.8ms @fs=48kHz) after PDN pin = “”, and then overflow detection is enabled.
Zero detection
The DAC has a cha nnel-independent zero detect function. The zero detect funct ion is enabled when the ZOS bi t = “1” and
the ZOE bit = “0”in se rial control mode. When the input data at both channels is conti nuously zero for 8192 LRCK cycles,
the DZF pin of each c hannel goe s t o “H”. The DZF pin of each c hannel immedi ate ly goes to “L” i f the input data of each
channe l is n ot zero aft er DZF “H”. If the RSTDA bit is “0 ”, the DZF pins of both channels go to “H”. DZF pins of both
channels go to “L” at 4~5/fs after the RSTDA bit becomes “1”. Zero detect function can be disabled by the ZOE bit. In
this case, the DZF pins of both channels are always “L”. The DZFB bit can invert the polarity of the DZF pin.
Digital High Pass Filter
The ADC has a digital high pass fil ter for DC offset cancellation. The cut-off frequency of the HPF is 0.9Hz at
fs=44.1kHz. The digital high pass filter cutoff frequency scales with the sampling rate (fs). In parallel mode, the HPF is
always enable d. In se rial mode, t he HPF ca n control each channel by HPLN/HPRN bits.
De-emphasis Filter
The DAC includes a digital de-emphasis fi lter (tc=50/15µs) via an inte grated IIR filter. This filter corresponds to three
frequencies (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz). This sett ing is done via control register (DEM1-0 bits). This filter is always OFF
in double and quad speed m odes. The DEM0 pin and DEM0 bi t are OR’d in serial cont rol mode. In parallel control m ode,
the DEM1 bi t is fixed to “ 0” and onl y t he DEM0 pin can be c ontrolled (44.1kHz or OFF). When in DSD mode, DEM1-0
bits are ignored. The setting value is held even if PCM mode and DSD mode are switched.

signal is attenuated by −∞ during ATT_DATA × ATT transition time (Tab le 12 ) from the curren t A TT lev e l. When
SMUTE bit is ret urned to “0”, the m ute is ca ncelled and the out put attenuat ion gradually changes to the ATT l evel during
ATT_DATA × ATT transition time. If soft mute is cancelled before attenuating to −∞ after startin g th e operation, the
attenuation i s discont inued and ret urns to ATT level by the sam e cy cle. The soft m ute is effecti ve for changi ng the signal
source without stopping the signal transmission.

at ATT_DATA=255 in Normal Speed Mode.
(2) Analog output corresponding to digital input has group delay (GD).
(3) If the soft mute is cancelled before attenuating −∞ after starting the operation, the attenuation is discontinued
and returned to ATT level by the same cycle.
(4) When the input data at each channel is continuously zero for 8192 LRCK cycles, DZF pin of each channel goes
to “H”. DZF pin immediately goes to “L” if input data are not zero after going DZF pin “H”.

Power Down & Reset
The ADC and DAC of AK4620B are placed in power-down mode by bringing the PDN pin = “L”. Each digital filter is
also reset at the same time. The internal register values are initialized by bringing PDN pin to “L”. This reset should
always be done after power-up. As both control registers of the ADC and the DAC go to the reset state (RSTAD bit =
RSTDA bit = “0”), each register should be cleared after performing the reset. In the case of the ADC, an analog
initiali zation cy cle sta rts afte r exiting the power-down or reset state. The output data (SDTO) is a vailable a fter 516 cycl es
of LRCK cloc k. This i niti ali zati on cy cle doe s not affec t the DAC operat ion. P ower down m ode can be also cont roll ed by
the register s (PWAD b it, PWDA bit).

Serial Control Interface
The internal registers may be written to the 3-wire µP interface pins: CSN, CCLK, CDTI. The data on this interface
consists of Chip address (2bi ts, C0/1) Read/Write (1 bit), Register address (MSB first, 5 bi ts) and Control data (MSB first,
8 bits). Address and dat a is clocked in on the rising edge of CCLK. Data is latched out after the 16th risi ng edge of CCLK,
following a hi gh-to-low t ransition of C SN. Opera tion of the control serial port may be complet ely a synchronous with the
audio sample rat e. The maxi mum clock spee d of the CC LK is 5MHz. The chip address is fixed t o “10”. The access to the
chip address except for “10” is invalid. PDN pin = “L” resets the registers to their default values.

Refer to Table 10
Default: 80H (0dB)
The AK4620B includes two channel-independent analog volumes (IPGA), each with 32 levels in 0.5dB increments.
These are located in front of the ADC while digital volume controls (IATT) with 128 levels (including MUTE) are
located after the ADC. Control of both of these volume settings is handled by the same register address (04H for L-ch,
05H for R-ch). When the MSB of the re gister i s “1”, t he IPGA c hanges and whe n the MSB = “0” the IATT changes. 80H
is the crossover point of the IPGA and DATT, and both IPGA/IATT are set to 0dB.
The IPGAs are set to “00H” when the PDN pin goes “L”. After returning to “H”, the IPGAs fade in the default value,
“80H” by 531(1/ fs) cycl es. The IPGAs are set t o “00H” when PWAD goes “0” . After ret urning to “1” , the IPGAs fa de in
the current value, but the ADC out put is “0” during t he first 516(1/fs) cyc les. The IPAGs are set to “00H” when RSTAD
goes “0”. After ret urning to “1”, the IPGAs fade i n to the current value, but the ADC outputs “0” during the fi rst 516(1/fs)
cycles. IATTs can be controlled in differential mode.

Figure 16. Ground Layout
1. Grounding and Power Supply Decoupling
The AK4620B requires careful attention to power supply and grounding layout. To minim ize coupling from digit al noise,
decoupling capac itors should be connected to V A, VD and VT respectively . VA is supplied from the analog suppl y in the
system, and VD and VT are supplied from the digita l supply in the system. Power lines of VA, VD and VT should be
distributed separately from t he point with low impedance of regulator etc. The power up sequence is not critical among
VA, VD and VT. AGND and DGND must be connected to one analog ground plane. Decoupling capacitors
should be as near to the AK4620B as possible, with the small value cerami c capacitor being the nearest.
2. Voltage Reference
The differential voltage between VREF and A GND sets the analog input/output range. VREF pin is normally connected
to VA with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor. VCOM is the signal ground of this chip. A 10µF electroly tic capacitor in parallel
with a 0.1µF cerami c capacitor atta ched to VCOM pin e liminates the effects of high frequency noise. No load curre nt may
be drawn from VC OM pin. All signa ls, especiall y clocks, should be kept away from the VREF and VCOM pins in order
to avoid unwanted coupling into the AK4620B.
3. ADC Outpu t
The ADC output data format is 2’s compl ement. The DC offset, including the ADC’s own DC offset, is removed by t he
internal HPF. The AK4620B sa mples the anal og inputs at 128fs. The digital filter rejects noi se above the stopband except
for multiples of 128fs.

4. Analog Inputs
4-1. Single-ended Input (ADMODE pin = “L”)
The IPGA inputs are single-ended. The input resistance of IPGA is typical ly 5.1k at IPGA=0dB and typically
1.18k at IPGA=+18dB. The input signal is typically AC coupled through a capacitor. The cut-off frequency is fc =
(1/2πRC). The input signal range scales with the VREF voltage and is nominally 3.07Vpp (VREF=5V) centered
around the internal common voltage (about VA/2). In single-ended mode, the AK4620B includes an anti-aliasing
filter (RC filter) to attenuate noise around 128fs.
4-2. Full-Differential Input (ADMODE pin = “H”)
The AK4620B can accept i nput voltages from AGND to VA. The input signal range scal es with the VREF voltage and
is nomi nally 2.82Vpp (VREF = 5V), centered a round the interna l com mon vol tage (a bout VA/2). Fi gure 17 shows an
input buffer circuit example. This is a fully differential input buffer circuit with an inverted amplifier (gain: 10dB).
The capacitor of 10nF between AINL+/ (AINR+/) decreases the clock feedthrough noise of the modulator, and
composes a 1st order LPF (fc=360kHz) wi th a 22 resi stor before the capa cit or. This circ uit also has a 1st order LPF
(fc=370kHz) composed of op-amp. The evaluation board should be referred about the detail.

5. Analog Outputs
The analog out puts are fully differential and 2.8Vpp (ty p. VREF = 5V), centered around VCOM . The different ial outputs
are summed externally: Vout = (AOUT+)-(AOUT-) between AOUT+ and AOUT-. If the summing gain is 1, the output
range is 5.6Vpp (typ. VREF = 5V). The bi as voltage of the externa l summi ng circuit is supplied exte rnally. The input data
format is 2’s complement. The output voltage is a positive full scale for 7FFFFFH(@24bit) and a negative full scale for
800000H(@24bit). The ideal AOUT is 0V for 000000H(@24bit).
The internal switched-capacitor filter and the external LPF attenuate the noise generated by the delta-sigma modulator
beyond the audio passband. Figure 18 shows an example of exte rnal LPF circuit summing the different ial outputs by an
op-amp. Figure 19 shows an example of differential outputs and LPF circuit example by t hree op-amps.

It is recom mende d by SACD form at book (Scarl et Book) t hat the filte r response at S ACD play back is an a nalog low pass
filter with a cut-off frequency of maximum 50kHz and a slope of mini mum 30dB/Oct. The AK4620B can achieve this
filter response by combination of the internal filte r (Table 20) and an external filter (Figure 20).
