Application for Interfacing With an External Digital Filter
For some applications, it may be desirable to use a programmable digital signal processor as an external digital filter
to perform the interpolation function. The following pin settings enable the external digital filter application mode.
D MONO (pin 1) = LOW
D CHSL (Pin 2) = HIGH
D FMT0 (Pin 11) = HIGH
D FMT1 (pin 12) = HIGH
The pins used to provide the serial interface for the external digital filter are shown in the connection diagram of
Figure 27. The word clock (WDCK) must be operated at 8× or 4× the desired sampling frequency, f

.
System Clock (SCK) and Interface Timing
The PCM1794A in an application using an external digital filter requires the synchronization of WDCK and the system
clock. The system clock is phase-free with respect to WDCK. Interface timing among WDCK, BCK, and DATA is
shown in Figure 29.
Audio Format
The PCM1794A in the external digital filter interface mode supports right-justified audio formats including 24-bit audio
data, as shown in Figure 28.
