All of the TAS5508B default values for DRC can be used except for the DRC1 decay and DRC2 decay.
Table 2-8 shows the recommended time constants and their hex values. If the user wants to implement
other DRC functions, Texas Instruments recommends using the automatic loudspeaker equalization (ALE)
tool available from Texas Instruments. The ALE tool allows the user to select the DRC transfer function
graphically. It then outputs the TAS5508B hex coefficients for download to the TAS5508B.

Recommended DRC setup flow if the defaults are used:
• After power up, load the recommended hex value for DRC1 and DRC2 decay and (1 – decay). See
Table 2-8.
• Enable either the pre-volume or post-volume DRC using I2C registers 0x96 and 0x97. Note that to
avoid a potential timing problem, there should be a 10-ms delay between a write to 0x96 and a write to
0x97.
Recommended DRC setup flow if the DRC design uses values different from the defaults:
• After power up, load all DRC coefficients per the DRC design.
• Enable either the pre-volume or post-volume DRC. Note that to avoid a potential timing problem, there
should be a 10-ms delay between a write to 0x96 and a write to 0x97.
Figure 2-16 shows the positioning of the DRC block in the TAS5508B processing flow. As seen, the DRC
input can come either before or after soft volume control and loudness processing.
