4. APPLICATIONS
4.1 Sample Rate Range/Operational Mode
The device operates in one of two operational modes determined by the Master Clock to Left/Right Clock
ratio (see section 4.2). Sample rates outside the specified range for each mode are not supported.
4.2 System Clocking
The device requires external generation of the master (MCLK) and left/right (LRCK) clocks. The device
also requires external generation of the serial clock (SCLK) if the internal serial clock is not used. The
LRCK, defined also as the input sample rate Fs, must be synchronously derived from MCLK according to
specified ratios. The specified ratios of MCLK to LRCK, along with several standard audio sample rates
and the required MCLK frequency, are illustrated in Tables 2 and 3.
*Requires MCLKDIV bit = 1 in the MCLK Control (address 00h) register.
4.2.1 Internal Serial Clock Mode
The device will enter the Internal Serial Clock Mode if no low to high transitions are detected on
the SCLK pin for 2 consecutive periods of LRCK. In this mode, the SCLK is internally derived and
synchronous with MCLK and LRCK. The SCLK/LRCK ratio is either 32, 48, or 64 depending upon
the MCLK/LRCK ratio and the Digital Interface Format selection (see Table 4).
Operation in the Internal Serial Clock mode is identical to operation with an external SCLK syn-
chronized with LRCK; however, External SCLK mode is recommended for system clocking appli-
cations.
