DESCRIPTION
The PCM1738 is a CMOS, monolithic, integrated
circuit (IC) that includes stereo digital-to-analog
converters (DACs) and support circuitry in a small
SSOP-28 package. The data converters use a newly
developed advanced segment DAC architecture to
achieve excellent dynamic performance and
improved tolerance to clock jitter. The PCM1738
provides balanced current outputs, allowing the user
to optimize analog performance externally, and
accepts industry-standard audio data formats with
16- to 24-bit data, providing easy interfacing to audio
DSP and decoder chips. Sampling rates up to 200
kHz are supported. The PCM1738 also has two
optional modes of operation: an external digital filter
mode (for use with the DF1704, DF1706, and
PMD200), and a DSD decoder interface for SACD
playback
applications.
A
full
set
of
user-programmable functions is accessible through a
4-wire serial control port that supports register write
and read functions.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be
more susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published
specifications.

SYSTEM CLOCK AND RESET FUNCTIONS
SYSTEM CLOCK INPUT
The PCM1738 requires a system clock for operating the digital interpolation filters and advanced segment DAC
modulators. The system clock is applied at the SCKI input (pin 7). The PCM1738 has a system-clock detection
circuit that automatically senses if the system clock is operating at 128 fS to 768 fS. Table 2 shows examples of
system-clock frequencies for common audio sampling rates.
Figure 32 shows the timing requirements for the system clock input. For optimal performance, it is important to
use a clock source with low phase jitter and noise. The PLL1700 multiclock generator is an excellent choice for
providing the PCM1738 system clock.
SYSTEM CLOCK OUTPUT
A buffered version of the system clock input is available at the SCKO output (pin 10). SCKO can operate at
either full (fSCKI) or half (fSCKI/2) rate. The SCKO output frequency may be programmed using the CLKD bit of
mode control register 19. The SCKO output pin can also be enabled or disabled using the CLKE bit of mode
control register 19. The default is SCKO enabled.
POWER-ON AND EXTERNAL RESET FUNCTIONS
The PCM1738 includes a power-on-reset function (see Figure 33). The system clock input at SCKI should be
active for at least one clock period prior to VDD = 2 V. With the system clock active, and VDD > 2 V, the
power-on-reset function is enabled. The initialization sequence requires 1024 system clocks from the time VDD >
2 V. After the initialization period, the PCM1738 is set to its reset default state, as described in the Mode Control
Registers section of this data sheet.
The PCM1738 also includes an external reset capability using the RST input (pin 1). This allows an external
controller or master reset circuit to force the PCM1738 to initialize to its reset default state.
See Figure 34 for external reset operation and timing. The RST pin is set to a logic 0 for a minimum of 20 ns.
The RST pin is then set to a logic-1 state that starts the initialization sequence that requires 1024 system clock
periods. After the initialization sequence is complete, the PCM1738 is set to its reset default state, as described
in the Mode Control Registers section of this data sheet.
The external reset is especially useful in applications where there is a delay between PCM1738 power up and
system-clock activation. In this case, the RST pin should be held at a logic-0 level until the system clock has
been activated. The RST pin may then be set to a logic-1 state to start the initialization sequence.

AUDIO DATA INTERFACE
AUDIO SERIAL INTERFACE
The audio serial interface for the PCM1738 consists of a 3-wire synchronous serial port. It includes LRCK (pin
4), BCK (pin 6), and DATA (pin 5). BCK is the serial audio bit clock, used to clock the serial data present on
DATA into the audio interface serial shift register. Serial data is clocked into the PCM1738 on the rising edge of
BCK. LRCK is the serial audio left/right word clock, used to latch serial data into the serial audio interface
internal registers.
LRCK should be synchronous to the system clock. In the event these clocks are not synchronized, the
PCM1738 can compensate for the phase difference internally. If the phase difference between LRCK and SCKI
is greater than six bit clocks (BCK), the synchronization is performed internally. While the synchronization is
processing, the analog output is forced to the bipolar zero level. The synchronization typically occurs in less than
one cycle of LRCK.
Ideally, it is recommended that LRCK and BCK be derived from the system clock input or output, SCKI or
SCKO. The left/right clock (LRCK) is operated at the sampling frequency, fS.
AUDIO DATA FORMATS AND TIMING
The PCM1738 supports industry-standard audio data formats, including standard right-justified, I2S, and
left-justified. The data formats are shown in Figure 35. Data formats are selected using the format bits, FMT
[2:0], in mode control register 18. The default data format is 16-bit standard. All formats require binary
2s-complement, MSB-first audio data. Figure 36 shows a detailed timing diagram for the serial audio interface.

EXTERNAL DIGITAL FILTER INTERFACE AND TIMING
The PCM1738 supports an external digital-filter interface comprised of a 4-wire synchronous serial port that
allows the use of an external digital filter. External filters include the DF1704 and DF1706 from Texas
Instruments, the Pacific Microsonics PMD200, or a programmable digital signal processor.
The 4-wire interface includes WDCK as the word clock, BCK as the bit clock, DATAL as the L-channel data, and
DATAR as the R-channel data. The external digital-filter interface is selected using the DFTH bit of mode control
register 20, which functions to bypass the internal digital-filter portion of the PCM1738. The 4-wire serial port is
assigned to WDCK (pin 4), BCK (pin 6), DATAL (pin 5), and DATAR (pin 15).
DSD (DIRECT STREAM DIGITAL) FORMAT INTERFACE AND TIMING
The PCM1738 supports a DSD format interface operation that includes out-of-band noise filtering using an
internal analog FIR filter. For DSD operation, pin 7 is redefined as BCK, which operates at 64 × 44.1 kHz; pin 5
is redefined as DATAL (left-channel audio data), and pin 15 becomes DATAR (right-channel audio data). Pins 4
and 6 must be forced LOW in DSD mode. This configuration allows for direct interface to a DSD decoder for
SACD applications. Detailed information for the DSD mode is provided in the Application for DSD Format (DSD
Mode) Interface section of this data sheet.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONS
ZERO DETECT
When the PCM1738 detects that the audio input data in the L-channel or R-channel is continuously zero for
1024 LRCKs, the PCM1738 sets ZEROL (pin 2) or ZEROR (pin 3) to HIGH. Setting the INZD bit of mode control
register 19 can set both analog outputs to the bipolar zero level when the input data of both channels is zero.
SOFT MUTE
The PCM1738 supports mute operation by both hardware and software control. When MUTE (pin 15) is set to
HIGH, both analog outputs are turned to the bipolar zero level. When the MUTE bit in mode control register 18 is
set to 1, both analog outputs are also turned to the bipolar zero level. The speed to turn to the bipolar zero level
is set by the ATS0 and ATS1 bits in mode congtrol register 19.
SERIAL CONTROL INTERFACE
The serial control interface is a 4-wire synchronous serial port that operates asynchronously to the serial audio
interface and the system clock (SCKI). The serial control interface is used to program the on-chip mode control
registers. The control interface includes MDO (pin 11), MDI (pin 12), MC (pin 13), and CS (pin 14). MDO is the
serial data output, used to read back the values of the mode control registers; MDI is the serial data input, used
to program the mode control registers; MC is the serial bit clock, used to shift data in and out of the control port;
and CS is the mode control enable, used to enable the internal mode control register access. Figure 37 and
Figure 38 show the format and timing for the serial control interface.

Digital Attenuation Level Setting
These bits are read/write.
Default value: 1111 1111b
Each DAC output has a digital attenuator associated with it. The attenuator may be set from 0
db to –120 dB, in 0.5-dB steps. Alternatively, the attenuator may be set to infinite attenuation (or
mute).
The attenuation data for each channel can be set individually. However, the data load control
(ATLD bit of mode control register 18) is common to both attenuators. ATLD must be set to 1 in
order to change an attenuator's setting. The attenuation level may be set using the following
formula:
Attenuation level (dB) = 0.5 dB × (ATL/R[7:0]DEC– 255)
where ATL/R[7:0]DEC = 0 through 255
For ATL/R[7:0]DEC = 0 through 14, the attenuator is set to infinite attenuation.

Figure 40. Typical Application for Analog Output Stage
ANALOG OUTPUT LEVEL AND I/V CONVERTER
The signal level of the DAC current output pins (IOUTL+, IOUTL–, IOUTR+, and IOUTR–) is ±2.48 mAp-p at 0 dB (full
scale). The voltage output of the I/V converter is given by the following equation:
VOUT = ±2.48 mAp-p × RF
Here, RF is the feedback resistor in the I/V (current-to-voltage) conversion circuit, R11, R12, R21, and R22 in the
typical application circuit, Figure 40. The common level of the I/V conversion circuit must be the same as the
common level of DAC IOUT that is given by the VCOM2 reference voltage, 2.5 V dc. The non-inverting inputs of
the operational amplifiers shown in the I/V circuits are connected to VCOM2 to provide the common bias voltage.
Operational Amplifiers for I/V Converter Circuit
The OPA627BP/BM, or 5534 type operational amplifier, is recommended for the I/V conversion circuit to obtain
the specified audio performance. Dynamic performance, such as gain bandwidth, settling time, and slew rate of
the operational amplifiers creates the audio dynamic performance of the I/V section. The input noise
specification of the operational amplifiers should be considered to obtain 120-dB S/N ratio.

SBAS174C – FEBRUARY 2002 – REVISED FEBRUARY 2007
Analog Gain by Balanced Amplifier
The I/V converters are followed by balanced amplifier stages that sum the differential signals for each channel,
creating a single-ended voltage output. In addition, the balanced amplifiers provide a second-order, low-pass
filter function that band-limits the audio output signal. The cutoff frequency and gain is given by external R and C
component values. In the case of Figure 40, the cutoff frequency is 45 kHz with a gain of 1. The output voltage
for each channel is 6.2 Vp-p, or 2.2 Vrms.
REFERENCE CURRENT RESISTOR
As shown in the analog output application circuit, marked R1 on Figure 40, there is a resistor connected from
IREF (pin 21) to the analog ground, designated as R1. This resistor sets the current for the internal reference
circuit. The value of R1 must be 16 kΩ, ±1% in order to match the specified gain error shown in the Electrical
Characteristics table.

APPLICATIONS FOR INTERFACING WITH THE EXTERNAL DIGITAL FILTER
For some applications, it may be desirable to use an external digital filter to perform the interpolation function, as
it may provide improved stop-band attenuation or other special features not available with the PCM1738's
internal digital filter.
The PCM1738 supports the use of an external digital filter, including:
• The DF1704 and DF1706 from Texas Instruments
• Pacific Microsonics PMD100 HDCD filter/decoder ICs
• Programmable digital signal processors

SBAS174C – FEBRUARY 2002 – REVISED FEBRUARY 2007
The external digital-filter application mode is available by programming the following bits in the corresponding
mode control registers:
DFTH = 1 (register 20)
DME = 0 (register 18)
The pins used to provide the serial interface for the external digital filter are shown in the application diagram of
Figure 41. The word (WDCK) and bit (BCK) clock signals, as well as the audio data inputs (DATAL and DATAR)
must be operated at 8× or 4× the original sampling frequency at the input of the digital filter.
SYSTEM CLOCK (SCKI) AND INTERFACE TIMING
The PCM1738, in external digital-filter mode, allows any system-clock frequency synchronized with BCK and
WDCK. The system clock may be phase-free with BCK and WDCK. See Figure 43 for interface timing among
WDCK, BCK, DATAL, and DATAR.
AUDIO FORMAT
In external digital-filter interface mode, the PCM1738 supports a right-justified audio format interface including
16-, 20-, and 24-bit audio data (see Figure 42) that should be selected by FMT[2:0] of mode control register 18.
FUNCTIONS AVAILABLE IN THE EXTERNAL DIGITAL-FILTER MODE
The external digital-filter mode allows access to the majority of the PCM1738's mode-control functions. Table 5
shows the register mapping available when the external digital-filter mode is selected, along with descriptions of
functions that are modified for this mode selection.

FEATURES
This mode is used for interfacing directly to a DSD decoder, found in Super Audio CD (SACD) applications.
DSD mode provides a low-pass filtering function to convert the 1-bit oversampled data stream to the analog
domain. The filtering is provided using an analog FIR filter structure. Four FIR responses are available and may
be selected via the serial control interface. Refer to the Typical Performance Curves section of this data sheet
for analog FIR plots. See Figure 45 and Figure 46 for timing and interface specification in DSD mode.
PIN ASSIGNMENT WHEN IN DSD-FORMAT INTERFACE
Several pins are redefined for DSD-mode operation. These include:
• DATA (pin 5)—DATAL, L-channel DSD data input
• MUTE (pin 15)—DATAR, R-channel DSD data input
• SCKI (pin 7)—bit clock (BCK) for DSD data
• LRCK (pin 4)—set LOW
• BCK (pin 6)—set LOW
Typical connection to a DSD decoder is shown in Figure 44.

REQUIREMENTS FOR SYSTEM CLOCK
The bit clock (BCK) for DSD mode is required at pin 7 of the PCM1738. The frequency of the bit clock may be N
times the sampling frequency. Generally, N is 64 in DSD applications.
The interface timing among the bit clock, DATAL, and DATAR is required to meet the same setup and hold-time
specifications as shown for the PCM audio-format interface in Figure 36.

APPLICATION FOR MONAURAL-MODE OPERATION
Single-channel signals within stereo-audio data input are output to both IOUTL and IOUTR as differential outputs.
Selection of channels to output is available with the CHSL bit in register 20. Applications, such as monaural
operation,are useful for high-end audio applications to provide over 120 dB for dynamic range. A typical MONO
mode application is shown in Figure 47.

Figure 48. Architecture of Advanced Segment DAC
The PCM1738 uses the newly developed advanced segment DAC architecture to achieve excellent dynamic
performance and improved tolerance to clock jitter. The PCM1738 provides balanced current outputs, allowing
the user to optimize analog performance externally. The structure of the advanced segment DAC architecture is
shown in Figure 48.
Digital input data from the digital interpolation filter is split into six upper bits and 18 lower bits. The upper six bits
are converted to inverted complementary offset binary (ICOB) code. The lower 18 bits associated with the MSB
are processed by five-level, third-order, delta-sigma modulators operated at 64 fS by default conditions. The level
of the modulator is equivalent to one LSB of the ICOB code converter (decoder). The data groups processed in
the ICOB converter and the third-order delta-sigma modulator are summed together to create up to 66 levels of
digital code that is then processed by data-weighted averaging (DWA) to reduce noise produced by element
mismatch. The output data from the DWA block is then converted to an analog output using a differential current
segment DAC.
CONSIDERATIONS FOR APPLICATIONS CIRCUITS
PCB LAYOUT GUIDELINES
A typical PCB floor plan for the PCM1738 is shown in Figure 49. A ground plane is recommended, with the
analog and digital sections being isolated from one another using a split or cut in the circuit board. The
PCM1738 should be oriented with the digital I/O pins facing the ground plane split/cut to allow for short, direct
connections to the digital audio interface and control signals originating from the digital section of the board.
Separate power supplies are recommended for the digital and analog sections of the board. This prevents the
switching noise present on the digital supply from contaminating the analog power supply and degrading the
dynamic performance of the DACs. In cases where a common 5-V supply must be used for the analog and
digital sections, an inductance (RF choke, ferrite bead) should be placed between the analog and digital 5-V
supply connections to avoid coupling of the digital switching noise into the analog circuitry. Figure 50 shows the
recommended approach for single supply applications.

BYPASS AND DECOUPLING CAPACITOR REQUIREMENTS
Various sized decoupling capacitors can be used, with no special tolerances being required. All capacitors
should be located as close as physically possible to the power supply and reference pins of the PCM1738 to
reduce noise pickup from surrounding circuitry. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors that are designed for hi-fi audio
applications are recommended for larger values, while metal-film or monolithic ceramic capacitors are
recommended for smaller values.
I/V SECTION
Using the circuit shown in Figure 40 for I/V conversion achieves data-sheet performance. To obtain 0.0005%
THD+N, 117-dB signal-to-noise ratio audio performance, THD+N and input noise performance, an operational
amplifier IC must be considered. Input noise of the operational amplifier directly affects the output noise level of
the application.
All components of the I/V section should be located physically close to the PCM1738 current outputs. All
connections should be made as short as possible to eliminate pickup of radiated noise.
POST LOW-PASS FILTER DESIGN
The out-of-band noise level and sampling spectrum level are much lower than typical delta-sigma type DACs,
due to the combination of a high-performance digital filer and the advanced segment DAC architecture. The use
of a second- or third-order filter is recommended for the post low-pass filter (see Figure 40 for a second-order
filter) following the I/V conversion stage. The cutoff frequency of the post LPF is dependent upon the application,
given the variety of sampling rates supported by the CD-DA (fS = 44.1 kHz), DVD-M (fS = 96 kHz), DVD-A (fS =
192 kHz), and SACD (fS = 44.1 kHz) systems.
