Instruction Manual
MAX9796
Mono/Left/Right Volume Control
The MAX9796 has separate volume control for each of
the internal signals: left (L), right (R), and mono (M). The
final gain of each signal is determined by the way the
following bits are set: MVOL, LVOL, RVOL, INA+20dB,
IN+6dB, and MONO+6dB. Table 7 shows how to config-
ure the L, R, and M amplifiers for specific gains.
