13.5 ANALOGUE TO DIGITAL CONVERTER (ADC)
The high-performance stereo ADC within the WM8351 converts analogue input signals to the digital
domain. It uses a multi-bit, over-sampled sigma-delta architecture. The ADC’s over-sampling rate is
selectable to control the trade-off between best audio performance and lowest power consumption. A
variety of digital filtering stages process the ADC’s digital output signal before it is sent to the
WM8351 audio interface. These include:
 digital decimation and filtering needed for the ADC
 digital volume control
 A programmable high-pass filter
The audio ADC supports all commonly used audio sampling rates between 8kHz and 48kHz (see
Figure 40).

When ADCR and ADCL are used
together as a stereo pair, then both
ADCs must be enabled together using
a single register write to Register R11
(0Bh).

When ADCR and ADCL are used
together as a stereo pair, then both
ADCs must be enabled together using
a single register write to Register R11
(0Bh).

ADC Right Channel Polarity
0 = Normal
1 = Inverted
Note: ADCL_ENA and ADCR_ENA can be accessed through R11 or through R66/R67. Reading from
or writing to either register location has the same effect.
Table 26 Enabling the ADC Left and Right Channels
When ADCR and ADCL are used together as a stereo pair, then it is important that ADCR_ENA and
ADCL_ENA are enabled at the same time using a single register write. This must be implemented by
writing to the bits in Register R11 (0Bh). This ensures that the system starts up both channels in a
synchronous manner.
