GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADAU1966A is a high performance, single-chip digital-to-
analog converter (DAC) that provides 16 DACs with differential or
single-ended outputs using the Analog Devices, Inc., patented
multibit sigma-delta (Σ-) architecture. A serial peripheral interface
(SPI)/I2C port is included, allowing a microcontroller to adjust
volume and many other parameters. The ADAU1966A operates
from 2.5 V digital and 3.3 V analog supplies. A linear regulator
is included to generate the digital supply voltage from the analog
supply voltage. The ADAU1966A is available in an 80-lead LQFP.
The ADAU1966A is designed for low EMI. This consideration
is apparent in both the system and circuit design architectures.
By using the on-board PLL to derive the internal master clock from
an external left-right frame clock (LRCLK), the ADAU1966A
can eliminate the need for a separate high frequency master clock
and can be used with or without a bit clock. The DACs are
designed using the latest Analog Devices continuous time
architectures to further minimize EMI. By using 2.5 V digital
supplies, power consumption is minimized, and the digital
waveforms are a smaller amplitude, further reducing emissions.
Note that throughout this data sheet, multifunction pins, such as
SCLK/SCL, are referred to by the entire pin name or by a single
function of the pin, for example, SCLK, when only that function
is relevant.

ADAU1966A Data Sheet

THEORY OF OPERATION
DACs
The 16 ADAU1966A DAC channels are differential for improved
noise and distortion performance and are voltage output for
simplified connection. The DACs include on-chip digital
interpolation filters with 68 dB stop-band attenuation and linear
phase response, operating at an oversampling ratio of 256×
(48 kHz range), 128× (96 kHz range), or 64× (192 kHz range).
Each channel has its own independently programmable
attenuator, adjustable in 255 steps in increments of 0.375 dB.
Digital inputs are supplied through six serial data input pins
(two channels on each pin), a common frame clock (DLRCLK),
and a bit clock (DBCLK). Alternatively, any one of the time domain
multiplexed (TDM) modes can be used to access up to 16 channels
on a single TDM data line.
The ADAU1966A has a low propagation delay mode; this
mode is an option for an fS of 192 kHz and is enabled in Register
DAC_CTRL0[2:1]. By setting these bits to 0b11, the propagation
delay is reduced by the amount listed in Table 6. The shorter delay
is achieved by reducing the amount of digital filtering; the negative
impact of selecting this mode is reduced audio frequency response
and increased out-of-band energy.
Because AVDDx is supplied with 3.3 V, each analog output pin
has a nominal common-mode (CM) dc level of 1.5 V. With a 0 dB
full-scale digital input signal, each pin swings approximately
±1.42 V peak (2.83 V p-p and 2 V rms). Therefore, the voltage
swing differentially across the two pins is 5.66 V p-p (4 V rms). The
differential analog outputs require a single-order passive differential
resistor-capacitor (RC) filter only to provide the specified DNR
performance; see Figure 10 or Figure 11 for an example filter. The
outputs can easily drive differential inputs on a separate printed
circuit board (PCB) through cabling as well as differential inputs
on the same PCB.
If more signal level is required, or if a more robust filter is needed,
a single op amp gain stage designed as a second-order, low-pass
Bessel filter can be used to remove the high frequency out-of-
band noise present on each pin of the differential outputs. The
choice of components and design of this circuit is critical to yield
the full DNR of the DACs (see the recommended passive and
active circuits in Figure 10, Figure 11, Figure 12, and Figure 13).
The differential filter can be built into an active difference amplifier
to provide a single-ended output with gain, if necessary. Note that
the use of op amps with low slew rate or low bandwidth can cause
high frequency noise and tones to fold down into the audio
band; exercise care when selecting these components.
The ADAU1966A offers control over the analog performance
of the DACs; it is possible to program the registers to reduce the
power consumption with the trade-off of lower SNR and THD + N.
The reduced power consumption is the result of changing the
internal bias current to the analog output amplifiers.
Register DAC_POWER1 to Register DAC_POWER4 present four
basic settings for the DAC power vs. performance in each of the
16 channels: best performance, good performance, low power, and
lowest power. Alternatively, in Register PLL_CLK_CTRL1[7:6], the
LOPWR_MODE bits offer global control over the power and
performance for all 16 channels. To select the low power or
lowest power settings, set Bit 7 and Bit 6 of the DAC_POWERx
registers to 0b10 or 0b11, respectively. The default setting is 0b00.
This setting allows the channels to be controlled individually
using the DAC_POWERx registers. The data presented in Table 11
shows the result of setting all 16 channels to each of the four
settings. The SNR and THD + N specifications are shown in
relation to the measured performance of a device at the best
performance setting.
The voltage at CM, the common-mode reference pin, can be
used to bias the external op amps that buffer the output signals
(see the Power Supply and Voltage Reference section).
CLOCK SIGNALS
Upon powering the ADAU1966A and asserting the PU/RST pin
high, the part starts in either standalone mode (SA_MODE) or
program mode, depending on the state of SA_MODE (Pin 46).
The clock functionality of SA_MODE is described in the
Standalone Mode section.
In program mode, the default for the ADAU1966A is for the
MCLKO pin to feed a buffered output of the MCLKI signal on
the MCLKI/XTALI pin. The default for the DLRCLK and DBCLK
ports is slave mode; the DAC must be driven with a coherent set
of master clock, frame clock, and bit clock signals to function.
The MCLKO pin can be programmed to provide different clock
signals using Register PLL_CLK_CTRL1[5:4]. The default, 0b10,
provides a buffered copy of the clock signal that is driving the
MCLKI pin. Two modes, 0b00 and 0b01, provide low jitter clock
signals.
The b00 setting yields a clock rate between 4 MHz and 6 MHz,
and the b01 setting yields a clock rate between 8 MHz and 12 MHz.
Both of these clock frequencies are scaled as ratios of the master
clock automatically inside the ADAU1966A. As an example, an
input to MCLKI of 8.192 MHz and a setting of 0b00 yield an
MCLKO of (8.192/2) = 4.096 MHz. Alternatively, an input to
MCLKI of 36.864 MHz and a setting of 0b01 yield an MCLKO
frequency of (36.864/3) = 12.288 MHz. The 0b11 setting disables
the MCLKO pin.

Data Sheet ADAU1966A
Rev. A | Page 15 of 52
After the PU/RST pin is asserted high, the PLL_CLK_CTRLx
registers (Register 0x00 and Register 0x01) can be programmed.
The on-chip PLL can be selected to use the clock appearing at the
MCLKI/XTALI pin at a frequency of 256, 384, 512, or 768 times
the sample rate (fS), referenced to the 48 kHz mode from the
master clock select (MCS) setting, as described in Table 12.
In 96 kHz mode, the master clock frequency stays at the same
absolute frequency; therefore, the actual multiplication rate is
divided by 2. In 192 kHz mode, the actual multiplication rate is
divided by 4.
For example, if the ADAU1966A is programmed in 256 × fS
mode, the frequency of the master clock input is 256 × 48 kHz =
12.288 MHz. If the ADAU1966A is then switched to 96 kHz
operation (by writing to DAC_CTRL0[2:1]), the frequency of the
master clock remains at 12.288 MHz, which is an MCS ratio of
128 × fS in this example. Therefore, in 192 kHz mode, MCS
becomes 64 × fS. The internal clock for the digital core varies
by mode: 512 × fS (48 kHz mode), 256 × fS (96 kHz mode), or
128 × fS (192 kHz mode). By default, the on-board PLL generates
this internal master clock from an external clock.
The PLL must be powered and stable before using the
ADAU1966A as a source for quality audio. The PLL is enabled
by reset and does not require writing to the I2C or SPI port for
normal operation.
With the PLL enabled, the performance of the ADAU1966A is
not affected by jitter as high as a 300 ps rms time interval error
(TIE). When the internal PLL is disabled, use an independent
crystal oscillator to generate the master clock.
When using the ADAU1966A in direct master clock mode, power
down the PLL in the PDN_THRMSENS_CTRL_1 register. For
direct master clock mode, a frequency of 512 × fS (referenced to
48 kHz mode) must be fed into the MCLKI pin, and the CLK_SEL
bit in the PLL_CLK_CTRL1 register must be set to 1. However,
for the device to function, 2.5 V power must be connected to
the PLLVDD pin.
The PLL of the ADAU1966A can also be programmed to run
from an external LRCLK without an external master clock. Setting
the PLLIN bits in the PLL_CLK_CTRL0 register to 0b01 and
connecting the appropriate loop filter to the LF pin (see Figure 8),
the ADAU1966A PLL generates all of the necessary internal
clocks for operation with no external master clock. This mode
reduces the number of high frequency signals in the design,
reducing EMI emissions.
It is possible to further reduce EMI emissions of the circuit by
using the internal bit clock generation setting of the BCLK_GEN
bit in the DAC_CTRL1 register. Setting the BCLK_GEN bit to 1
(internal) and the SAI_MS bit to 0 (slave), the ADAU1966A
generates its own bit clock; this configuration works with the
PLL input register (PLL_CLK_CTRL0[7:6]) set to either
MCLKI/XTALI or DLRCLK. The clock on the DLRCLK pin
is the only required clock in DLRCLK PLL mode.

ADAU1966A Data Sheet

POWER-UP AND RESET
The power sequencing for the ADAU1966A begins with AVDDx
and IOVDD, followed by DVDD. It is very important that AVDDx
be settled at a regulated voltage and that IOVDD be within 10% of
regulated voltage before applying DVDD. When using the internal
regulator of the ADAU1966A, this timing occurs by default.
To guarantee proper startup, pull the PU/RST pin low by an
external resistor and then drive it high after the power supplies
have stabilized. The PU/RST can also be pulled high using a
simple RC network.
Driving the PU/RST pin low puts the part into a very low power
state (<3 µA). All functionality of the ADAU1966A is disabled
until the PU/RST pin is asserted high. Once this pin is asserted
high, the ADAU1966A requires 300 ms to stabilize. The MMUTE
bit in the DAC_CTRL0 register must be toggled for operation.
The PUP (master power-up control) bit in the PLL_CLK_CTRL0
register can be used to power down the ADAU1966A. Setting
the PUP bit to 0 puts the ADAU1966A in an idle state while
maintaining the settings of all registers. Additionally, the
power-down bits in the PDN_THRMSENS_CTRL_1 register
(TS_PDN, PLL_PDN, and VREG_PDN) can be used to power
down individual sections of the ADAU1966A.
The SOFT_RST bit in the PLL_CLK_CTRL0 register sets all of
the control registers to their default settings while maintaining
the internal clocks in default mode. The SOFT_RST bit does
not power down the analog outputs; nor does toggling this bit
cause audible popping sounds at the differential analog outputs.
For proper startup of the ADAU1966A, follow these steps:
1. Apply power to the ADAU1966A as described previously
in this Power-Up and Reset section.
2. Assert the PU/RST pin high after power supplies are stable.
3. Set the PUP bit to 1.
4. Program all necessary registers for the desired settings.
5. Set the MMUTE bit to 0 to unmute all channels.
STANDALONE MODE
The ADAU1966A can operate without a typical I2C or SPI
connection to a microcontroller. This standalone mode is available
by setting SA_MODE (Pin 46) to IOVDD. All registers are set to
default except for the options shown in Table 13.

When both SA_MODE (Pin 46) and SS/ADDR0/SA (Pin 45) are
set high, TDM mode is selected. Table 14 shows the available
TDM modes; these modes are set by connecting Pin 31 (SA1) and
Pin 32 (SA2) to GND or IOVDD.

01 TDM8, DLRCLK pulse
10 TDM16, DLRCLK pulse
11 TDM8, DLRCLK 50% duty cycle
By powering up the ADAU1966A in SA_MODE, and asserting
the PU/RST pin high, the MCLKO pin provides a buffered version
of the MCLKI/XTALI pin, whether the source is a crystal or an
active oscillator.
I2C CONTROL PORT
The ADAU1966A has an I2C-compatible control port that permits
programming and readback of the internal control registers for the
DACs and clock system. The I2C interface of the ADAU1966A is a
2-wire interface consisting of a clock line, SCL, and a data line,
SDA. SDA is bidirectional, and the ADAU1966A drives SDA either
to acknowledge the master (ACK) or to send data during a read
operation. The SDA pin (MISO/SDA/SA) for the I2C port is an
open-drain collector and requires a 2 kΩ pull-up resistor. A write
or read access occurs when the SDA line is pulled low while the
SCL line (SCLK/SCL) is high, indicated by a start in Figure 14 and
and Figure 15.
SDA is only allowed to change when SCL is low, except when a
start or stop condition occurs, as shown in Figure 14 and Figure 15.
The first eight bits of the data-word consist of the device address
and the R/W bit. The device address consists of an internal built-in
address (0x04) and two address bits, ADDR1 and ADDR0. The two
address bits allow four ADAU1966A devices to be used in a system.

a. A second acknowledge is issued by the ADAU1966A.
4. Send a third frame with the eight data bits required to be

with the R/W bit low and then the register address frame.
a. The ADAU1966A responds with an acknowledge.
2. Issue a repeated start condition.
a. The next frame is the device address with the R/W bit
set high.
b. On the next frame, the ADAU1966A outputs the
register data on the SDA line.
3. Issue a stop condition to complete the read operation.

SERIAL CONTROL PORT: SPI CONTROL MODE
The ADAU1966A has a 4-wire SPI control port that permits the
programming and reading back of the internal control registers
for the DACs and clock system. A standalone mode is also
available for operation without serial control; it is configured at
reset using the SA_MODE pin. See the Standalone Mode section
for details about the SA_MODE pin.
By default, the ADAU1966A is in I2C mode; however, it can be
put into SPI control mode by pulling SS low three times. This
is done by performing three dummy writes to the SPI port
(the ADAU1966A does not acknowledge these three writes,
see Figure 16). Beginning with the fourth SPI write, data can
be written to or read from the IC. The ADAU1966A can only
be taken out of SPI control mode by a full reset initiated by
power cycling the device.
The format is a 24-bit wide data-word. The serial bit clock and
latch can be completely asynchronous to the sample rate of the
DACs. The first byte is a global address with a read/write bit. For
the ADAU1966A, the address is 0x06, shifted left one bit due to
the R/W bit. The second byte is the ADAU1966A register address,
and the third byte is the data, as shown in Figure 17 and Figure 18.
When reading data from the ADAU1966A, MISO is tristated
until the third byte where it drives data out (see Figure 18). MISO
is tristated at all other times, allowing it to be bused with other
devices. The timing requirements are shown in Figure 19.

Chip Address R/W
The LSB of the first byte of an SPI transaction is a R/W bit. This bit
determines whether the communication is a read (Logic Level 1)
or a write (Logic Level 0). This format is shown in Table 21.
Table 21. ADAU1966A SPI Address and R/W Byte Format
Bit 0 Bit 1 Bit 2 Bit 3 Bit 4 Bit 5 Bit 6 Bit 7
0 0 0 0 1 1 0 R/W
SPI Burst Read/Write
The SPI port is capable of performing burst reads or writes by
sending the chip address byte with the R/W bit followed by the
first register address that needs to be read from or written to.
Then, as long as the SS pin is held low, the user can sequentially
read from or write to the registers by continuing to send clock
pulses into the SCLK pin. An efficient way to initialize the
ADAU1966A is by
Sending out the address byte with the R/W bit low (write)
Sending out the address of the first register
Sending out all the register byte values
Toggling SS to end the transfer
Performing a burst read to verify that the register writes
were successful
When referencing back to Analog Devices legacy devices, different
pin names (mnemonics) were used for these SPI port functions.
See Table 22 for details of the changes.

POWER SUPPLY AND VOLTAGE REFERENCE
The ADAU1966A is designed for 3.3 V analog and 2.5 V digital
supplies. To minimize noise pickup, bypass the power supply
pins with 100 nF ceramic chip capacitors placed as close to the
pins as possible. Provide a bulk aluminum electrolytic capacitor
of at least 22 F for each rail on the same PCB as the codec. It is
important that the analog supply be as clean as possible.
The ADAU1966A includes a 2.5 V regulator driver that requires
only an external pass transistor and bypass capacitors to make a
2.5 V regulator from a 3.3 V supply. Decouple the VSUPPLY
and VSENSE pins with no more than 10 µF of capacitance in
parallel with 100 nF high frequency bypassing. If the regulator
driver is not used, connect VSUPPLY and VDRIVE to GND
and leave VSENSE unconnected.
The temperature sensor internal voltage reference (VTS_REF) is
connected to the TS_REF pin and must be bypassed as close as
possible to the chip with a parallel combination of 10 F and
100 nF capacitors.
The internal band gap reference can be disabled in the
PLL_CLK_CTRL1 register by setting VREF_EN to 0; the CM
pin can be then be driven from an external source. This can be
used to scale the DAC output to the clipping level of a power
amplifier based on its power supply voltage.
The CM pin is the internal common-mode reference. Bypass it
as close as possible to the chip with a parallel combination of
10 F and 100 nF capacitors. This voltage can be used to bias
external op amps to the common-mode voltage of the analog
input and output signal pins. It is recommended that the CM pin
be isolated from the external circuitry by using a high quality
buffer to provide a quiet, low impedance source for the external
circuitry. Use of a quiet op amp is critical because any noise added
to the reference voltage is injected into the signal path.
SERIAL DATA PORTS—DATA FORMAT
The 16 DAC channels use a common serial bit clock (DBCLK)
and a common left-right framing clock (DLRCLK) in the serial
data port. The clock signals are all synchronous with the sample
rate. The normal stereo serial modes are shown in Figure 20.
The DAC serial data mode defaults to I2S (1 BCLK delay) upon
power-up and reset. The ports can also be programmed for left
justified and right justified (24-bit and 16-bit) operation using
DAC_CTRL0[7:6]. Stereo and TDM modes can be selected using
DAC_CTRL0[5:3]. The polarity of DBCLK and DLRCLK is
programmable according to the DAC_CTRL1[1] and DAC_
CTRL1[5] bits. The serial ports are programmable as the clock
masters according to the DAC_CTRL1[0] bit. By default, the
serial port is in slave mode.

Rev. A | Page 21 of 52
Figure 20. Stereo Serial Audio Modes
TIME-DIVISION MULTIPLEXED (TDM) MODES
The ADAU1966A serial ports also have several different TDM
serial data modes. The ADAU1966A can support a single data
line (TDM16), a dual data line (TDM8), a quad data line (TDM4),
or eight data lines (TDM2). The DLRCLK/frame clock can
operate in both single-cycle pulse mode and a 50% duty cycle
mode. Both 16 DBCLKs and 32 DBCLKs per channel are
selectable for each mode.
The I/O pins of the serial ports are defined according to the serial
mode that is selected. For a detailed description of the function
of each pin in TDM and stereo modes, see Table 23.
TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The ADAU1966A has an on-board temperature sensor that allows
the user to read the temperature of the silicon inside the device.
The temperature sensor readout has a range of −60°C to +140°C
in 1°C steps. The PDN_THRMSENS_CTRL_1 register controls
the settings of the sensor. The temperature sensor is powered on by
default and can be shut off by setting the TS_PDN[2] bit to 1 in the
PDN_THRMSENS_CTRL_1 register. The temperature sensor
can be run in either continuous operation or one-shot mode.
The temperature sensor conversion mode is modified using
THRM_MODE (Bit 5); the default is THRM_MODE = 1, one-
shot mode. In one-shot mode, writing a 0 followed by writing a 1 to
THRM_GO (Bit 4), results in a single reset and temperature
conversion, placing the resulting temperature data in the THRM_
TEMP_STAT register.
In continuous operation mode, the data conversion takes place
at a rate set by THRM_RATE[7:6], with a range of 0.5 sec to 4 sec
between samples. Faster rates are possible using one-shot mode.
Once a temperature conversion is placed in the THRM_TEMP_
STAT register, the data can be translated into degrees Celsius (°C)
using the following steps:
1. Convert the binary or hexadecimal data read from
THRM_TEMP_STAT into decimal form.
2. Subtract 60 from the converted THRM_TEMP_STAT data;
this is the temperature of the silicon in °C.

ADDITIONAL MODES
The ADAU1966A offers several additional modes for board level
design enhancements. To reduce the EMI in board level design,
serial data can be transmitted without an explicit bit clock input
on the DBCLK pin. See Figure 22 for an example of a DAC TDM
data transmission mode that does not require a high speed bit clock
or an external master clock. This configuration is applicable
when the ADAU1966A master clock is generated by the PLL
with the DLRCLK pin as the PLL reference frequency.
To relax the requirement for the setup time of the ADAU1966A in
cases of high speed TDM data transmission, the ADAU1966A
can latch in the data using the falling edge of DBCLK pin; see
the BCLK_EDGE bit in the DAC_CTRL1 register. This effectively
dedicates the entire bit clock period to the setup time. This
mode is useful when the source has a large delay time in the serial
data driver. Figure 23 shows this inverted bit clock mode of data
transmission.
