AK5578
8-Channel Differential 32-bit ADC
1. General Description
The AK557x series is a 32-bit, 768 kHz sampling, differential input A/D converter for digital audio
systems. It achieves 121 dB dynamic range and 112 dB S/(N+D) while maintaining low power
consumption performance.
The AK5578 integrates a 8-channel A/D converter, suitable for mixers and multi-channel recorders. Four
types of digital filters are integrated and selectable according to the sound quality preference. The
AK5578 can be easily connected to a DSP by supporting TDM audio formats. Additionally, it supports
DSD output up to 11.2MHz. The channel summation improves the dynamic range to 124 dB in 8-to-4
mode, to 127 dB in 8-to-2 mode and to 130 dB in 8-to-1 mode.

12. Functional Descriptions
■ Digital Core Power Supply
The digital core of the AK5578 is operates off of a 1.8 V power supply. Normally, this voltage is generated
by the internal LDO from TVDD (3.3 V) for digital interface. The internal LDO will be powered up by
setting the LDOE pin = “H”. Set the LDOE pin to “L” and supply a 1.8 V power to the VDD18 pin externally
when a 1.8 V is used as TVDD.
■ Output Mode
The AK5578 is able to output either PCM or DSD data. The DP pin or DP bit select the output mode. Set
the PW2 pin = PW1 pin = PW0 pin = “L” or RSTN bit = “0” or PW8-1 bits = “0H” to reset all channels when
changing the PCM/DSD mode. The AK5578 outputs data from the SDTO1-4 pins by BICK and LRCK in
PCM mode. DSD data are output from the DSDOL1-4 pins and DSDOR1-4 pins by DCLK in DSD mode.

Table 1 PCM/DSD Mode Control
■ Master Mode and Slave Mode
The AK5578 requires a master clock (MCLK), an audio serial data clock (BICK) and an output channel
clock (LRCK) in PCM mode. In this case, the LRCK frequency will be the sampling frequency. Both
master and slave modes are available in PCM mode. In master mode, the AK5578 internally generates
BICK and LRCK clocks from MCLK inputs and outputs them from the BICK pin and the LRCK pin. In
slave mode, AK5578 operates in the input MCLK, BICK and LRCK. MCLK must be synchronized with
BICK and LRCK but the phase is not important. The AK5578 is in master mode when the MSN pin = “H”
and in slave mode when the MSN pin = “L”.
The AK5578 requires a master clock (MCLK) in DSD mode. Slave mode is not available in DSD mode,
only master mode is supported.
■ System Clock
[1] PCM mode
The external system clocks, which are required to operate the AK5578, are MCLK, BICK and LRCK in
PCM mode. MCLK frequency is determined based on LRCK frequency, according to the operation mode.
Table 2, Table 3, Table 4 show MCLK frequencies correspond to the normal audio rate. Set the
frequency ratio between Sampling frequency and MCLK by the CKS3-0 pins (Table 5)
All channels must be reset when changing the clock mode or audio interface format by the CKS2-0 pins
(bits), TDM1-0 pins (bits), DIF1-0 pins (bits) and the MSN pin. In parallel control mode, all channels will
be reset by the PDN pin = “L” or PW2-0 pins = “LLL”. In serial control mode, all channels will be reset by
RSTN bit = “0” or PW8-1 bits = “0H”. A stable clock must be supplied after releasing the reset.
The AK5578 integrates a phase detection circuit for LRCK. If the internal timing becomes out of
synchronization in slave mode, the AK5578 is reset automatically and the phase is resynchronized.
The following sequence must be executed when synchronizing multiple AK5578’s. Stop all AK5578’s in
reset status by setting the PDN pin = “L” → “H” after stopping the system clock. Make pin or register
settings while all channels are in reset status. After that, input the same system clock to all AK5578’s.

[AK5578]
[2] DSD mode
The external clock, which is required to operate the AK5578, is MCLK in DSD mode. The AK5578
generates DCLK from MCLK inputs and DSD data outputs (DSDOL1-4 and DSDOR1-4) are
synchronized with DCLK. The necessary MCLK frequencies are 512fs and 768fs (fs=32 kHz, 44.1 kHz,
48 kHz). MCLK frequency can be changed by the DCKS pin (bit). After exiting reset (PDN pin = “L” → “H”)
upon power-up, the AK5578 is in power-down state until MCLK is input.

■ Audio Interface Format
TDM1-0 pins(bits), DIF1-0 pins(bits), SLOW pin(bit) and SD pin(bit) settings should be changed when all
channel are reset condition.
[1] PCM mode
48 types of audio interface format can be selected by the TDM1-0 pins (bits), MSN pin and DIF1-0 pins
(bits) (Table 8, Table 9). In all formats the serial data is MSB-first, 2's complement format. In master
mode, the SDTO1-4 is clocked out on the falling edge of BICK. Normal output in slave mode, the
SDTO1-4 is clocked out on the falling edge of BICK if 8 kHz ≤ fs ≤ 216 kHz. In other conditions, the data
is clocked out on the prior rising edge of BICK to compensate for some delay that renders the edge of
data transition near BICK falling edge.
Audio interface format is distinguished in four types: Normal mode, TDM128 mode, TDM256 mode and
TDM512 mode are available. The TDM1-0 pins (bits) select these modes.
In Normal mode (non TDM), AIN1 and AIN2 A/D converted data is output from the SDTO1 pin, AIN3 and
AIN4 A/D converted data is output from the SDTO2 pin, AIN5 and AIN6 A/D converted data is output from
the SDTO3 pin, AIN7 and AIN8 A/D converted data is output from the SDTO4 pin.
The BICK frequency must be in the rage from 48fs to 128fs (fs= 48 kHz) in slave mode if the audio
interface format is in normal output (non TDM) and the interface speed is in Normal, Double or Quad
mode. Bit length of A/D data is 24-bit or 32-bit and it is selected by the DIF1 pin (bit).
The BICK frequency must be set to 32fs, 48fs or 64fs in slave mode if the audio interface format is normal
output (non TDM) and the interface speed is in OCT mode. Bit length of A/D data is determined by BICK
frequency regardless of the DIF1 pin (bit) if the BICK frequency is 32fs or 48fs. It is 16-bit when the BICK
frequency is 32fs and 24-bit when the BICK frequency is 48fs. When the BICK frequency is 64fs, A/D
data can be selected between 24-bit and 32-bit by the DIF1 pin (bit).
The BICK frequency must be set to 32fs or 48fs in slave mode if the audio interface format is normal
output (non TDM) and the interface speed is in HEX mode. The 64fs is not available. Bit length of A/D
data is determined by BICK frequency regardless of the DIF1 pin (bit). It is 16-bit when the BICK

[AK5578]
frequency is 32fs and 24-bit when the BICK frequency is 48fs.
The BICK frequency will be 64fs in master mode if the audio interface format is normal output (non TDM)
and the interface speed is Normal, Double or Quad mode. Data bit length can be selected from 24-bit and
32-bit by the DIF1 pin (bit).
The MCLK frequency must be 64fs or 96fs in master mode if the audio interface format is normal output
(non TDM) and the interface speed is OCT mode. The BICK frequency will be 64fs. Data bit length can be
selected from 24-bit and 32-bit by the DIF1 pin (bit).
The BICK frequency will be synchronized with the MCLK frequency in master mode if the audio interface
format is normal output (non TDM) and the interface speed is HEX mode. The MCLK frequency must be
32fs, 48fs or 64fs. The bit length of A/D data is 16-bit when the MCLK frequency is 32fs, 24-bit when the
MCLK frequency is 48fs and 24-bit or 32-bit can be selected by the DIF1 pin (bit) when the MCLK
frequency is 64fs.
The DIF0 pin selects the A/D data format between MSB justified and I2S Compatible.

Cascade Connection in TDM Mode
The AK5578 supports cascade connection in TDM mode. All A/D converted data of connected AK5578
are output from the SDTO1 pin of the last AK5578 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

[2] DSD Mode
DSD output is available only when the AK5578 is in Master mode.
The DCLK frequency can be selected from 64fs, 128fs and 256fs by setting the DSDSEL1-0 pins (bits).
The AK5578 enters Phase Modulation mode by setting PMOD pin = “H” or PMOD bit = “1”. It does not
support Phase Modulation mode when the DCLK frequency is 256fs. DCKB bit controls DCLK polarity.

■ Channel Summation (PCM Mode, DSD Mode)
Channel Summation function improves the dynamic range and S/N performance by averaging all A/D
data of multiple-channel that the same signal is input. The AK5578 supports 8-to-4 mode, 8-to-2 mode,
8-to-1mode.
8-to-4 mode (2-Stereo mode)
Improve the dynamic range and S/N for 3 dB (1.5 dB in DSD mode) by averaging two channels.
8-to-2 mode (Stereo mode)
Improve the dynamic range and S/N for 6 dB (3.0 dB in DSD mode) by averaging four channels.
8-to-1 mode (Mono mode)
Improve the dynamic range and S/N for 9 dB (4.5 dB in DSD mode) by averaging eight channels.
Not-Summation mode (4-Stereo mode)
Normal mode that does not execute Summation is called as Not-Summation mode or 4-Stereo mode.
Refer to the section “CH Power Down & Channel Summation mode” for details.
■ Optimal Data Placement (PCM Mode, DSD Mode)
Assigned data to the SDTO1-4 slot is controlled by the ODP pin setting in parallel control mode.
When the ODP pin = “L”, the data is output by Fixed Data Placement mode. Channel assignment of data
slot is fixed regardless of enable/disable of channel summation. For example, averaging data of two
channels are output to both channel slots.
When the ODP pin = “H”, the data is output by Optimal Data Placement mode that is uses data slot more
efficiently. In Optimal Data Placement mode, there are no data redundant of channel summation, and the
data is output in MSB justified. Therefore, the maximum number of connecting device in cascade
connection will be increased.
If the AK5578 is set to 8-to-4 mode (2-Stereo Mode), two devices can be connected in TDM256 mode,
four devices can be connected in TDM512 mode.
If the AK5578 is set to 8-to-2 mode (Stereo Mode), two devices can be connected in TDM128 mode, four
devices can be connected in TDM256 mode and eight devices can be connected in TDM512 mode.
If the AK5578 is set to 8-to-1 mode (Mono Mode), four devices can be connected in TDM128 mode, eight
devices can be connected in TDM256 mode and sixteen devices can be connected in TDM512 mode.
In serial control mode, the data output is Optimal Data Placement mode regardless of the ODP pin
setting.
Refer to “CH Power Down & Channel Summation mode” for details.

■ CH Power Down & Channel Summation Setting (PCM Mode, DSD Mode)
[1] Parallel Control Mode
The setting of the PW2-0 pins and the ODP pin controls the channel power-down and channel
summation mode setting in parallel mode (Table 11-Table 16). The PDN pin must be set to “L” when
changing the ODP pin and the PW2-0 pins. The power consumption of the device can be improved by
setting unused channels to power-down state. In this case, the channel circuit that is powered down will
be reset.
When the ODP pin = “L”, the PW2-0 pins control channel power-down and 8-to-4 mode. In this mode,
AIN1 and AIN2 channel data are summed digitally and output from the SDTO1 (DSDOL1 and DSDOR1)
by dividing into half amplitude. In the same manner, AIN3 and AIN4 channel data are summed digitally
and output from the SDTO2 (DSDOL2 and DSDOR2) by dividing into half amplitude. AIN5 and AIN6
channel data are summed digitally and output from the SDTO3 (DSDOL3 and DSDOR3) by dividing into
half amplitude. AIN7 and AIN8 channel data are summed digitally and output from the SDTO4 (DSDOL4
and DSDOR4) by dividing into half amplitude.

When the ODP pin = “H”, the AK5578 becomes optimal data placement mode and data slots can be used
efficiently. The PW2-0 pins control power down, 8-to-4 mode, 8-to-2 mode and 8-to-1 mode.
In 8-to-4 mode, AIN1 and AIN2 channel data are summed digitally and output from the SDTO1
(DSDOL1) of the slot1 by dividing into half amplitude. In the same manner, AIN3 and AIN4 channel data
are summed digitally and output from the SDTO1 (DSDOR1) of the slot2 by dividing into half amplitude.
AIN5 and AIN6 channel data are summed digitally and output from the SDTO2 (DSDOL2) of the slot3 by
dividing into half amplitude. AIN7 and AIN8 channel data are summed digitally and output from the
SDTO2 (DSDOR2) of the slot4 by dividing into half amplitude.

[2] Serial Control Mode
In 3-wire serial mode or I2C mode, PW1-8 bits control the power of AIN1-8 channels independently. AINn
channel is powered down when PWn bit = “0” (n=1-8) and AINn channel is in normal operation when
PWn bit = “1”. The power-down channel is reset status and outputs all “0”. The channel summation is
controlled by MONO1 and MONO2 bits. RSTN bit must be “0” when changing the setting of MONO1,

■ Digital Filter Setting (PCM Mode)
The AK5578 has four types of digital filters and they can be selected by SD pin (bit) and SLOW pin (bit).
The filter setting is not available in OCT speed mode, HEX speed mode and DSD mode. So the setting of
the digital filter is ignored.

Table 20. Digital Filter Setting
■ Digital HPF (PCM Mode)
The AK5578 has a digital high-pass filter for DC offset cancellation. The digital high-pass filter is enabled
by setting the HPFE pin (bit) = “H (1)”. The cut-off frequency of the high-pass filter is fixed 1.0 Hz when
fs= 48 kHz (Normal Speed mode), 96 kHz (Double Speed mode) or 192 kHz (Quad Speed mode). The
high-pass filter is not available in OCT speed mode, HEX speed mode and DSD mode. So that the
setting of the HPFE pin is ignored. The high pass-filter setting should be changed when all channels are
reset condition.
■ Overflow Detection (PCM Mode, DSD Mode)
[1] PCM Mode
The AK5578 has an overflow detect function for the analog input.
The OVF pin outputs “H” if one of AIN1 - 8 channels overflows (more than −0.3 dBFS). The OVF pin
returns to “L” when analog input overflows are resolved. The OVF output for overflowed analog input has
the same group delay as the ADC.
[2] DSD Mode
Overflow Detection (Error Detection Function)
The OVF pin outputs “H” if any channel’s DSD modulators overflows. The OVF pin returns to “L” when
overflows are resolved.

■ LDO
The voltage range of TVDD is from 1.7 V to 1.98 V or from 3.0 V to 3.6 V. Set ON/OFF of the LDO by the
LDOE pin according to TVDD voltage (Table 21).
The internal LDO is switched ON/OFF depending on TVDD voltage range.

The internal LDO does not work properly when the TVDD voltage range is from 1.7 V to 1.98 V. Set the
LDOE pin to “L” to switch OFF the LDO. A 1.7 V - 1.98 V is supplied from the VDD18 pin for internal logic
circuits. The voltage difference between TVDD and VDD18 must be ±0.1 V or less.
[2] TVDD=3.0-3.6 V, LDO is ON (LDOE pin = “H”)
The internal LDO should be ON when the TVDD voltage range is from 3.0 V to 3.6 V. It will be the power
supply for the internal logic circuit. The VDD18 pin will be a connection terminal for a stabilization
capacitor. It is not possible to supply the power to external circuits from the VDD18 pin.
■ Reset
The AK5578 must be reset upon power up or when changing the clock setting or clock frequency. It can
be reset by the PDN pin or PW2-0 pins and RSTN bit or PW8-1 bits.

[AK5578]
■ Power Up/Down Sequence
The AK5578 enters power-down mode by setting the PDN pin to “L”. Digital filters are reset at the same
time.
[1] PCM Mode
In slave mode, internal power down signal (Internal PDN) is released by inputting MCLK, BICK and
LRCK after setting the PDN pin to “H”. In master mode, The Internal PDN is released by inputting MCLK
after setting the PDN pin to “H”.
Initialization cycle starts when the Internal PDN is released. The output data of SDTO will be valid in 583
x 1/fs after exiting power-down mode in slave mode, it will be valid in 578 x 1/fs after exiting power-down
mode in master mode. During initialization, the ADC digital outputs of both channels are in 2’s
complement format and forced to “0”. The ADC outputs settle to data correspondent to the input signals
after the end of initialization. This settling takes approximately the group delay time.

(2) a. LDOE pin = “H”, I2C pin = “H” and PSN pin = “H” (Parallel Mode):
The internal LDO is powered up by releasing PDN pin to “H”. The Internal PDN is released by
toggling MCLK for 16384times.
b. LDOE pin = “H” and PSN pin = “L” (Register Mode):
The internal LDO is powered up by releasing PDN pin to “H”. The internal PDN is released by
toggling internal oscillator clock for 16384 times (max. 10 ms).
c. LDOE pin = “L”:
The internal PDN is released in 1 ms (max.) after releasing PDN pin to “H”.
During this period, digital output and digital in/output pins may output an instantaneous pulse (max. 1
us). Therefore, referring the output of digital pins and data transmission with a device on the same
3-wire serial/I2C bus as the AK5578 should be avoided in this period to prevent system errors.

toggling internal oscillator clock for 16384 times (max. 10ms).
The internal PDN is released in max. 1 ms after releasing PDN pin to “H”.
Register writings become available when the internal PDN changes to “1”.
During this period, digital output and digital in/output pins may output an instantaneous pulse (max.
1 us). Therefore, referring the output of digital pins and data transmission with a device on the same
3-wire serial/I2C bus as the AK5578 should be avoided in this period to prevent system errors.
(2) Initialization operation will be completed in 583/fs.
(3) DSD output pins output “L” (-full scale data) during power down and initializing operation. DSD
output pins output full scale data during phase modulation mode, a reset sequence and a CH power
down status.
(4) The OVF pin outputs “H” when an excessive signal is input and overflow is detected at internal
modulator.
(5) In the case above (4), the DSD output data will not be correct.
(6) The OVF pin returns to “L” when the input signal settled to a normal state and overflow status of the
internal modulator is resolved.

■ Operation Mode Control
Operation modes of the AK5578 are set by pins or registers. In parallel control mode, the operation mode
is set by pin and register settings are invalid. Therefore, the functions that needs register settings are not
available in parallel control mode. For register accessing, 3-wire serial and I2C bus communications are
available. This control mode of the AK5578 is selected by the I2C pin and the PSN pin. In serial control
mode, register settings are prioritized so that all pin settings except the MSN pin setting are ignored.

■ Register Control Interface
(1) 3-wire Serial Control Mode (I2C pin = “L”)
The internal registers may be written through the 3-wire µP interface pins (CSN, CCLK and CDTI). The
data on this interface consists of a 2-bit Chip address, Read/Write (1bit, Fixed to “1”, Write only), Register
address (MSB first, 5bits) and Control data (MSB first, 8bits). Address and data are clocked in on the
rising edge of CCLK and data is clocked out on the falling edge. For write operations, data is latched after
a low-to-high transition of CSN. The clock speed of CCLK is 5MHz (max).
The internal registers are initialized by setting the PDN pin = “L”. In serial control mode, an internal timing
circuit is reset by setting RSTN bit = “0” but register values are not initialized.

Precautions when using the 3-wire serial interface
The I2C interface block continues to run, even when the 3-wire serial interface is selected. Therefore, if
CDTI (SDA) transitions from "H" to "L" while CCLK (SCL) is "H", the I2C interface recognizes this as a
start condition and receives subsequent data. If this data string matches the slave address, the I2C
interface outputs the ACK signal and data to the CDTI (SDA) pin. As a result, the CDTI (SDA) pin would
experience a drive conflict resulting from the I2C block’s output and the 3-wire serial interface’s input. In
this scenario, the data cannot be reliably written to the register.

(2) I2C-bus Control Mode (I2C pin = “H” and PSN pin = “L”)
The AK5578 supports the fast-mode I2C-bus (max: 400 kHz, Ver1.0).
(2)-1. WRITE Operations
Figure 66 shows the data transfer sequence of the I2C-bus control mode. All commands are preceded by
a START condition. A HIGH to LOW transition on the SDA line while SCL is HIGH indicates a START
condition (Figure 72). After the START condition, a slave address is sent. This address is 7 bits long
followed by the eighth bit that is a data direction bit (R/W). The most significant five bits of the slave
address are fixed as “00100”. The next bits are CAD1-0 (device address bits). This bits identifies the
specific device on the bus. The hard-wired input pins (CAD1-0 pins) set these device address bit (Figure
67). If the slave address matches that of the AK5578, the AK5578 generates an acknowledge and the
operation is executed. The master must generate the acknowledge-related clock pulse and release the
SDA line (HIGH) during the acknowledge clock pulse (Figure 73). R/W bit = “1” indicates that the read
operation is to be executed. “0” indicates that the write operation is to be executed.
The second byte consists of the control register address of the AK5578. The format is MSB first, and
those most significant 3-bits are fixed to zeros (Figure 68). The data after the second byte contains
control data. The format is MSB first, 8bits (Figure 69). The AK5578 generates an acknowledge after
each byte is received. Data transfer is always terminated by a STOP condition generated by the master.
A LOW to HIGH transition on the SDA line while SCL is HIGH defines STOP condition (Figure 72).
The AK5578 can perform more than one byte write operation per sequence. After receipt of the third byte
the AK5578 generates an acknowledge and awaits the next data. The master can transmit more than
one byte instead of terminating the write cycle after the first data byte is transferred. After receiving each
data packet the internal 6-bit address counter is incremented by one, and the next data is automatically
taken into the next address. If the address exceeds “07H” prior to generating a stop condition, the
address counter will “roll over” to “00H” and the previous data will be overwritten.
The data on the SDA line must remain stable during the HIGH period of the clock. The HIGH or LOW
state of the data line can only change when the clock signal on the SCL line is LOW (Figure 74) except
for the START and STOP conditions.

(2)-2. READ Operations
Set the R/W bit = “1” for the READ operation of the AK5578. After transmission of data, the master can
read the next address’s data by generating an acknowledge instead of terminating the write cycle after
the receipt of the first data word. After receiving each data packet the internal 6-bit address counter is
incremented by one, and the next data is automatically taken into the next address. If the address
exceeds “07H” prior to generating stop condition, the address counter will “roll over” to “00H” and the data
of “00H” will be read out.
The AK5578 supports two basic read operations: Current Address Read and Random Address Read.
(2)-2-1. Current Address Read
The AK5578 contains an internal address counter that maintains the address of the last word accessed,
incremented by one. Therefore, if the last access (either a read or write) was to address “n”, the next
CURRENT READ operation would access data from the address “n+1”. After receipt of the slave address
with R/W bit “1”, the AK5578 generates an acknowledge, transmits 1-byte of data to the address set by
the internal address counter and increments the internal address counter by 1. If the master does not
generate an acknowledge but generates a stop condition instead, the AK5578 ceases transmission.

(2)-2-2. Random Address Read
The random read operation allows the master to access any memory location at random. Prior to issuing
a slave address with the R/W bit =“1”, the master must execute a “dummy” write operation first. The
master issues a start request, a slave address (R/W bit = “0”) and then the register address to read. After
the register address is acknowledged, the master immediately reissues the start request and the slave
address with the R/W bit =“1”. The AK5578 then generates an acknowledge, 1 byte of data and
increments the internal address counter by 1. If the master does not generate an acknowledge but
generates a stop condition instead, the AK5578 ceases transmission.

1. Grounding and Power Supply Decoupling
The AK5578 requires careful attention to power supply and grounding arrangements. Normally AVDD1/2
and TVDD are supplied from analog supply of the system. The power-up sequence between AVDD1/2
and TVDD are not critical when AVDD1/2 and TVDD are supplied separately. DVSS and AVSS1/2 must
be connected to the same analog ground plane. System analog ground and digital ground should be
wired separately and connected together as close as possible to where the supplies are brought onto the
printed circuit board. Decoupling capacitors for high frequency should be placed as near as possible to
the supply pin.
2. Reference Voltage
The differential voltage between the VREFH1-4 pins and the VREFL1-4 pins are the common voltage of
A/D conversion. The VREFL1-4 pins are normally connected to AVSS. In order to remove a high
frequency noise, connect a 20 Ω resistor between the VREFH1-4 pins and analog 5 V supply, and
connect a 0.1 μF ceramic capacitor in parallel with an 100 μF electrolytic capacitor between the
VREFH1-4 pins and the VREFL1-4 pins. Especially the ceramic capacitor should be connected as close
as possible to the pin. All digital signals, especially clocks, should be kept away from the VREFH1-4 pins
and VREFL1-4 pins in order to avoid unwanted noise coupling into the AK5578.
3. Analog Inputs
The Analog input signal is differentially supplied into the modulator via the AINn+ and the AINn- pins (n=
1-8). The input voltage is the difference between the ALINn+ and ALINn- pins (n= 1-8). The full scale
signal on each pin is nominally ±2.8 V (typ). A voltage from AVSS1/2 to AVDD1/2 can be input to the
AK5578. The output code format is two’s complement. The internal HPF removes DC offset (including
DC offset by the ADC itself).
The AK5578 requires a +5 V analog supply voltage. Any voltage which exceeds the upper limit of
AVDD1/2+0.3 V and lower limit of AVSS1/2−0.3 V and any current beyond 10 mA for the analog input
pins should be avoided. Excessive currents to the input pins may damage the device. Hence input pins
must be protected from signals at or beyond these limits. Use caution especially when using ±15 V for
other analog circuits in the system.

4. External Analog Circuit Examples
Figure 76 shows an input buffer circuit example 1. (1st order HPF; fc= 0.70 Hz, 2nd order LPF; fc= 351
kHz, gain= −14.5 dB). The analog signal is able to input through XLR or BNC connectors. (short JP1 and
JP2 for BNC input, open JP1 and JP2 for XLR input). The input level of this circuit is 14.9 Vpp (AK5578:
2.8 Vpp Typ.). When using this circuit, analog characteristics at fs= 48 kHz is DR= 121 dB, S/(N+D)= 112
dB. The S/(N+D) characteristics of the AK5578 varies depending on DC bias current of the input signal.
Set the DC bias voltage in a range from 0.49 x AVDD to 0.51 x AVDD for a better characteristic.
