OPERATION OVERVIEW
System Clock
The external clocks required to operate the AK4366 are MCLK(256fs/384fs/512fs), LRCK(fs) and BICK. The master
clock (MCLK) should be synchronized with sampling clock (LRCK). The phase between these clocks does not matter.
The frequency of MCLK is detected automatically, and the internal master clock becomes the appropriate frequency.
Table 1 shows system clock example.

Table 1. System Clock Exampl e
In serial mode (P /S pin = “L”), all external clocks (MCLK, BICK and LRCK) should alway s be present whenever the
DAC is in normal operation mode (PMDAC bit = “1”). If these clocks are not provided, the AK4366 may draw excess
current and will n ot opera te properl y be cause it utili ze s these clo ck s for internal dyna mic r ef resh of r eg i ste r s . If the
external clocks are not present, the DAC should be placed in power-down mode (PMDAC bit = “0”). When MCLK is
input with AC coupli ng, the MCKAC bit should be set to “1”.
In parallel mode (P/S pin = “H”), all external clocks (MCLK, BICK and LRCK) should always be present whenever the
DAC is in normal operation mode (PDN pin = “H”). If these clocks are not provided, the AK4366 may draw excess
current and will n ot opera te properl y be cause it utili ze s these clo ck s for internal dyna mic r ef resh of r eg i ste r s . If the
external clocks are not present, the DAC should be placed in power-down mode (PDN pin = “L”).
For low sampling rates, DR and S/N degrade because of the outband noise. In serial mode (P/S pin = “L”), DR and S/N
are im proved by setti ng DF S1 bit to “1”. Ta ble 2 shows S /N of HP -amp output. When the DF S1 bi t is “1” , MC LK needs
512fs.

Serial Data Interface
The AK4366 interfa ces with e xternal sy stem via the SDATA, BICK a nd LRCK pins. In seria l m ode (P/S pi n = “L”), five
data formats are available and are selected by setting DIF2, DIF1 and DIF0 bits (Table 3). In parallel mode (P/S pin =
“H”), two data formats are available and are selected by setting DIF0 pin (Table 3). Mode 0 is compatible with existing
16bit DACs and digital filters. Mode 1 is a 20bit version of Mode 0. Mode 4 is a 24bit version of Mode 0. Mode 2 is
simila r to AKM ADCs and m any DSP serial port s. Mode 3 is com patible with the I2S se rial data protocol. In Modes 2 and
3 with BICK48fs, the following formats a re also vali d: 16-bit data followed by eight zeros (17t h t o 24th bi ts) and 20-bit
data followed by four zeros (21st to 24th bi ts). In all modes, the serial data is MSB first and 2’s complement format.

Digital Attenuator
The AK4366 has a channel-independe nt digital attenuator (256 l evels, 0.5dB step). This digital attenuat or is placed before
the D/A converter. ATTL/R7-0 bits set the attenuation level (0dB to 127dB or MUTE) for each channel (Table 5). At
DATTC bit = “1”, ATTL7-0 bits control both Lch and Rch attenuation levels. At DATTC bit = “0”, ATTL7-0 bits control
the Lch level and ATTR7-0 bits control the Rch level. In parallel m ode (P/S pin = “H”), digital a ttenuator is fixed to 0dB.
When HPM bit = “1”, (L+R)/2 summation is done after volume control.

Table 5. Digital Volume ATT values
The ATS bit sets the transiti on tim e betwee n set value s of ATT7-0 bits as ei ther 1061/fs or 7424/fs (Table 6). When ATS
bit = “0”, a soft transition between the set values occurs(1062 levels). It takes 1061/fs (24ms@fs=44.1kHz) from
FFH(0dB) to 00H(MUTE). The A TTs are 00H when the P MDAC bit is “0”. When the PMDAC returns to “1”, the ATTs
fade to their current val ue. Digital attenuat or is independent of the soft m ute function.

Soft Mute
Soft mut e operation is perform ed at di gital dom ain. In se rial m ode (P/S pin = “L”), w hen the SMUTE bit goes to “1”, the
output signal is atte nuated by −∞ duri ng ATT_DATA×ATT transi tion time (Tabl e 6) from the current ATT level. When
the SMUTE bit is returned to “0”, the mute is cancelled and the output attenuation gradually changes to the ATT level
during ATT_DATA×ATT transition time. If the soft mute is cancelled before attenuating to −∞ after starting the
operation, the attenuation is discontinued and returned to ATT level by the same cycle. The soft mute is effective for
changing the signal source without stopping the signal transmission. In parallel mode (P/S pin = “H”), soft mute is not
available.

System Reset
The AK4366 should be reset once by bringing PDN “L” upon power-up.
In serial mode (P/S pin = “L”), after exiting reset, VCOM, DAC, HPL and HPR switch to the power-down state. The
contents of the control register are maintained until the reset is done. DAC exits reset and power down state by MCLK
after PMDAC bit is changed to “1”, and then DAC is powered up and the internal timing starts clocking by LRCK “”.
DAC is in power-down mode until MCLK and LRCK are input.
In parallel mode (P/S pin = “H”), VCOM and DAC are powered up by PDN pin “H”. Headphone amp is powered up by
MUTEN pin “H” . DAC exits reset and power down st ate by MCLK after PDN pin goe s to “H”, and then DAC is powered
up and the internal tim ing starts c locking by LRC K “”. DAC is in power-down m ode until M CLK and LRCK are input.

Headphone Output
Power supply voltage for the Headphone-amp is supplied from the HVDD pin and centered on the 0.45 x VDD voltage.
The Headphone-amp output load resistance is min.16.
1) Parallel mode (P/S pin = “H”)
When MUTEN pin is set to “H” a t PDN pin = “H”, common vol tage goes to 0.45 x VDD. When MUTEN pin is set to “L”,
common voltage goes to VSS, and the outputs (HPL and HPR pins) are VSS. When PDN pin is “L”, headphone
amplifiers are powered-down perfectly, and the outputs (HPL and HPR pins) are VSS.
2) Serial mode (P/S pin = “L”)
When the MUTEN bit is “1” a t PMHPL=P MHPR= “1”, t he comm on voltage rises t o 0.45 x VDD. When the MUTEN bit
is “0”, t he c ommon voltage of Headphone-am p fa lls a nd the out puts (HPL and HPR pi ns) go to VSS. When PM HPL and
PMHPR bits are “0”, the Headphone-amps are powered-down perfectly, and the outputs (HPL and HPR pins) are VSS.
A capacitor between the MUTET pin and ground reduces pop noise at power-up/down. It is
recommended that the capacitor with small variation of capacitance and low ESR (Equivalent Series
Resistance) over all tempera ture range, since the rise and fall time in Table 10 depend on the
capacitance and ESR of the external capacitor at MUTET pin.

(2) Headphone-amp comm on voltage ri se up (MUTEN bit = “1”). Comm on voltage of Headphone-amp is risi ng. This rise
time depends on the capacitor value connected with the MUTET pin. The rise time up to VC OM/2 is tr = 100k x C(typ)
when the capacitor value on MUTET pin is “C”.
(3) Headphone-amp common volta ge fall down (MUTEN bit = “0”). Common voltage of Headphone-amp is falling to
VSS. This fall time depends on the capacitor value connec ted with the MUTET pin. The fall time down to 0V is tf =
200k x C(typ) when the capacitor value on MUTET pin is “C”.
(4) Headphone-amp power-down (P MHPL, PMHPR bits = “0”). The outputs are VSS. If the power supply is switched off
or Headphone-amp is powered-down before the common voltage goes to VSS , some pop noise occurs.

Mode Control Interface
Some funct ion of AK4366 can be controlled by bot h pins (parallel control m ode) and register (serial control mode) shown
in Table 12. The serial control interface is enabled by the P/S pin = “L”. Internal registers may be written by 3-wire µP
interface pins: CSN, CCLK and CDTI. The data on this interface consists of Chip Address (2bits, fixed to “01”),
Read/Write (1bit; fi xed to “1”, Write only), Register Address (MSB first, 5bits) and Control Data (MSB fi rst, 8bits).
AK4366 latches the data on the rising edge of CCLK, so data should clocked in on the falling edge. The writing of data
becomes valid by 16th CCLK “”. The clock speed of CCLK is 5MHz (max).

1. Grounding and Power Supply Decoupling
The AK4366 requires careful att e ntion to power supply and grounding arrangements. VDD and HVDD are usually
supplied from the analog power supply in the system. When VDD and HVDD are supplied separately, VDD must be
powered-up at the sa me time or e arlier than HVDD. When the AK4366 i s powered-down, HVDD must be powered-down
at the sam e time or la ter than VDD. VSS must be connected to the analog gr ound plane. System analog ground and digital
ground should be connected toget her near to where the supplies are brought onto the printed circuit board. Decoupling
capacitors should be as close to the AK4366 as possible, with the small value ceramic capacitors being the nearest.
2. Voltage Reference
The input voltage to VDD sets the analog output range. A 0.1µF ceramic capacitor and a 10µF electrolytic capacitor is
connected betwe en VDD and VSS , norma lly. VC OM i s a signal ground of this chi p (0.45 x VDD). An el ectrol ytic 2.2µF
in paralle l with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor attached between VCOM and VSS eliminates the effects of high frequency
noise. No l oad current m ay be drawn from VCOM pin. Al l signa ls, especial ly clock, should be kept away from VDD and
VCOM in order to avoid unwanted coupling into the AK4366.
3. Analog Outputs
The analog outputs are single-ended outputs and 0.47xVDD Vpp(typ)@4.8dBFS centered on the VCOM voltage. The
input data format is 2’s compliment. The output voltage is a positive full scale for 7FFFFFH(@24bit) and negative full
scale for 800000H(@24bit). The ideal output is VCOM voltage for 000000H(@24bit).
DC offsets on the anal og outputs is eli minated by AC coupling since the ana log outputs have a DC offset equal to VCOM
plus a few mV.
