[AK4490EN]
[2] DSD Mode
The AK4490EN has a DSD playback function. The external clocks, which are required in DSD mode, are
MCLK and DCLK. MCLK should be synchronized with DCLK but the phase is not critical. The frequency
of MCLK is set by DCKS bit.
The AK4490EN is automatically placed in reset state when MCLK is stopped during a normal operation
(PDN pin =“H”), and the analog output becomes Hi-z state. However, the external clock (DCLK) should
not be stopped. When DCLK is not supplied, the AK4490EN may not be able to operate properly because
of an over current since it has a dynamic logic circuit internally. The PDN pin should be set to “L” when
stopping the DCLK. When the reset is released (PDN pin = “L” → “H”), the AK4490EN is in power-down
state until MCLK and DCLK are input.

The AK4490EN supports DSD data stream of 2.8224MHz (64fs), 5.6448MHz (128fs) and 11.2896MHz
(256fs). The data sampling speed is selected by DSDSEL1-0 bits.

The AK4490EN has a Volume bypass function for play backing DSD signal. Two modes are selectable by
DSDD bit. When setting DSDD bit = “1”, the output volume control function is not available.

When DSDD bit = “1”, filter characteristic can be switched between 50kHz and 100kHz by DSDF bit.
