[AK5538]
Cascade Connection in TDM Mode
The AK5538 supports cascade connection in TDM mode. All A/D converted data of connected AK5538
are output from the SDTO1 pin of the last AK5538 by cascade connection.
When the ODP pin = “L”, a cascade connection of two devices in TDM512 mode is supported. Figure 29
shows a connection example. When the ODP pin = “H”, a cascade connection of two up to sixteen
devices is available.
When using multiple devices in slave mode on cascade connection, internal operation timing of each
device may differ for one MCLK cycle depending on MCLK and BICK input timings. To prevent this timing
difference, BICK “↓” should be more than ± 10ns from MCLK “↑” as shown in Table 10. To realize this
timing, BICK divided by two should be input on a falling edge of MCLK as shown in Figure 54 when
MCLK=2xBICK (normal speed 1024fs mode). When MCLK=BICK (normal speed 512fs mode), MCLK
and BICK should be input in-phase as shown in Figure 55 to satisfy the timing shown in Table 10
