nPower Management/Low Power Modes
The AK4543 is capable of operating at multiple reduced power modes for when no activity is required. The state of power down is
controlled by the Powerdown Register (26h). There are 8 separate commands for power down. See the table below for the different
modes. As the AK4543 operates at static mode, the registers will not lose their values even if the master clock is stopped only upon
power.

From normal operation sequential writes to the Powerdown Register are performed to power down subsections of the AK4543 one at
a time. After everything has been shut off, a final write (of PR4) can be executed to shut down the AC ’97 digital interface (AC-link).
The part will remain in sleep mode with all its registers holding their static values. To wake up, the AC ‘97 controller will send a pulse
on the sync line issuing a warm reset. This will restart the AK4543 digital (resetting PR4 to zero). The AK4543 can also be woken up
with a cold reset. A cold reset will cause a loss of values of the registers as a cold reset will set them to their default states. When a
subsection is powered back on the Powerdown Control/Status register (index 26h) should be read to verify that the section is ready
(i.e. stable) before attempting any operation that requires its normal operation.
And the below figure illustrates one example of procedure to do a complete powerdown/power up of AK4543.

One example of AK4543 Powerdown/Powerup flow
When PR3 bit is set to “1”, the ADC, DAC, Mixer, True Line Level Out, and VREF will be powered down even if any
PRx bits are “0”. When PR3 bit is reset to “0”, the AK4543 resumes with the previous state by referencing PRx bit.
In this case, the AK4543 outputs “0” (invalid) for corresponding slot-x valid bits in the slot 0 until the
corresponding block of the AK4543 is operating with normal operation.
Setting the PR4 bit causes the Powerdown mode of AK4543 and AC-Link of AK4543 shut down. In this case, when
Warm Reset is executed, PR4 bit is cleared and the AC-Link is reactivated. A cold reset is issued , the AK4543 is
restored to operation with the default register settings.
In addition, setting PR5 bit causes the Powerdown mode of AK4543 and the internal clock of AK4543 to be stopped.
When a warm reset is done in this case, PR5 bit is cleared to 0 and internal clock and AC-Link are reactivated.
When Cold reset is executed, AK4543 is set up to the operation with default register setting, no powerdown modes
active.
