OPERATION OVERVIEW
„ System Clock
The external clocks, which are required to operate the AK4384, are MCLK, LRCK and BICK. The master clock (MCLK)
should be synchronized with LRCK but the phase is not critical. The MCLK is used to operate the digital interpolation
filter and the delta-sigma modulator. There are two methods to set MCLK frequency. In Manual Setting Mode (ACKS =
“0”: Register 00H), the sampling speed is set by DFS0/1(Table 1). The frequency of MCLK at each sampling speed is set
automatically. (Table 2~4).After exiting reset (PDN = “↑”), the AK4384 is in Auto Setting Mode. In Auto Setting Mode
(ACKS = “1”: Default), as MCLK frequency is detected automatically (Table 5), and the internal master clock becomes
the appropriate frequency (Table 6), it is not necessary to set DFS0/1.
In parallel mode, the sampling speed can be set by ACKS pin. The internal DFS0 andDFS1 bits are fixed to “0”.
Therefore, when ACKS pin is “L”, the AK4384 operates in Normal Speed Mode. The AK4384 operates in Auto Setting
Mode at ACKS = “H”. In parallel mode, the AK4384 does not support 128fs and 192fs of Double Speed Mode.
All external clocks (MCLK,BICK and LRCK) should always be present whenever the AK4384 is in the normal operation
mode (PDN= ”H”). If these clocks are not provided, the AK4384 may draw excess current and may fall into unpredictable
operation. This is because the device utilizes dynamic refreshed logic internally. The AK4384 should be reset by PDN=
“L” after threse clocks are provided. If the external clocks are not present, the AK4384 should be in the power-down
mode (PDN= “L”). After exiting reset at power-up etc., the AK4384 is in the power-down mode until MCLK and LRCK
are input.
