■ Soft Mute Operation (PCM, DSD)
The soft mute operation is performed at digital domain. When the SMUTE pin goes to “H” or the SMUTE bit
set to “1”, the output signal is attenuated by  during ATT_DATA  ATT transition time from the current
ATT level. When the SMUTE pin is returned to “L” or the SMUTE bit is returned to “0”, the mute is cancelled
and the output attenuation gradually changes to the ATT level during ATT_DATA  ATT transition time. If
the soft mute is cancelled before attenuating  after starting the operation, the attenuation is discontinued and
returned to ATT level by the same cycle. The soft mute is effective for changing the signal source without
stopping the signal transmission.

Notes:
(1) ATT_DATA  ATT transition time. For example, this time is 7424LRCK cycles (1020/fs) at
ATT_DATA=255 in Normal Speed Mode.
(2) The analog output corresponding to the digital input has group delay (GD).
(3) If the soft mute is cancelled before attenuating  after starting the operation, the attenuation is
discontinued and returned to ATT level by the same cycle.
(4) When the input data for each channel is continuously zeros for 8192 LRCK cycles, the DZF pin for each
channel goes to “H”. The DZF pin immediately returns to “L” if input data are not zero.

■ System Reset
The AK4490 should be reset once by bringing the PDN pin = “L” upon power-up. It initializes register settings
of the device. The analog block of the AK4490 exits power-down mode by MCLK input, and the digital block
exits power-down mode after the internal counter counts MCLK for 4/fs.
