! FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
(1) Signal Output
PWM signals of L channel and R output from OUTL and OUTR terminals respectively. These signals are
converted to analog signal by external 2nd-order or over LC filter. The output driver power supplied from VDDL,
VDDR, VSSL, and VSSR are required high response power supply against voltage fluctuation like as switching
regulator because Output THD is effected by power supply stability.
(2) Master Clock
Master Clock is 256fS clock into MCK terminal for the internal circuit operation clock.
(3) Reset
“L” level input over than 3ms to the RST terminal is initialization signal to initialize the internal circuit. This
initialization signal is synchronized with internal clock and executes logical OR with the internal power on reset
signal. This Reset signal initializes the internal function setting registers also. During initialization, output
terminals of OUTL and OUTR are high-impedance.
(4) 8fS Over Sampling Digital Filter
8fS Over Sampling Digital Filter interpolates Audio data and decreases aliasing noise.
It realizes Attenuation and De-Emphasis function by serial function control.
(5) 32fS 6th ∆Σ & PWM
32fS 6th ∆Σ & PWM convert from Audio data of the 8fS Over Sampling Digital Filter to the 32fS one bit PWM
data.

(6) System Control
(6-1) Standby
Standby functions by “L” level input to the STBY terminal. In busy of Standby, conditions of digital audio
format set, attenuation level, de-emphasis, and attenuator operation time are kept and output terminals of
OUTL and OUTR are high-impedance.
(6-2) Control Mode Set
A control mode as shown below is selected by the MODE terminal.
MODE Control Method Function Terminals
0 Parallel Digital Audio interface Format Set F0, F1, F2
1 Serial Control Register serial data input DATA, REQ, SCK
Parallel : Digital Audio Interface Format is set directly by using F0, F1, and F2 terminals.
Serial : NJU8721 is controlled serial input data by 3-wire serial interface using DATA, REQ, and
SCK terminals
By this setting, the function of F0/DATA, F1/REQ, and F2/SCK are changed.
Refer to (8-5)F0,F1,F2 about function of F0, F1, and F2 terminals.
Refer to (8)Control Register about function of DATA, REQ, and SCK terminals.
(6-3) Mute
Mute functions by “L” signal into the MUTE terminal. In busy of mute, a current attenuation value
becomes - by internal digital attenuator. And MUTE is stopped by “H” signal into the MUTE terminal, the
attenuation value returns from - to previous value.

(7-1) Input Data Format Selection
The digital audio interface format is selected out of I2S, MSB Justified or LSB Justified, and 16 bits or 18
bits data length.
(7-2) Input Timing
Digital audio signal data into DIN terminal is fetched into the internal shift register by BCK signal rising
edge. The fetched data in the shift register are transferred by rising edge or falling edge of LRCK as
shown below:
Data Format Rising Edge Falling Edge

(8) Control Register
When Control Mode is set to Serial control by the Mode terminal, the control register sets various modes.
The Control Data is fetched by the rising edge of F2/SCK and is set into the control register by the rising edge of
F1/REQ. The latest 8 bits data are valid before the F1/REQ rising pulse.

! APPLICATIO N CIRCUIT
Note 9) De-coupling capacitors must be connected between each power supply pin and GND pin.
Note 10) The power supply for VDDL and VDDR require fast driving response performance such as a switching
regulator for THD.
Note 11) The bigger capacitor value of AC-coupling capacitors for headphone outputs realize better frequency
response characteristics, especially low frequency area.
Note 12) The above circuit shows only application example and does not guarantee the any electrical
characteristics. Therefore, please consider and check the circuit carefully to fit your application.
