PCM2912
SLES216 – FEBRUARY 2008
The PCM2912 has three endpoints as follows.
• Control endpoint (EP #0)
• Isochronous-out audio data stream endpoint (EP #1)
• Isochronous-in audio data stream endpoint (EP #2)
The control endpoint is a default endpoint. The control endpoint is used to control all functions of the PCM2912
by the standard USB request and USB audio-class-specific request from the host. Isochronous-out audio data
stream endpoint is an audio sink endpoint, which receives the PCM audio data. The isochronous-out audio data
stream endpoint accepts the adaptive transfer mode. Isochronous-in audio data stream endpoint is an audio
source endpoint, which transmits the PCM audio data. The isochronous-in audio data stream endpoint uses
synchronous transfer mode.
All required power sources are generated by five internal regulators.
Each regulator generates 3.3 V (typical, without load) from V
BUS
(pin 2). Each regulator has an output pin and
ground return pin as follows, and this pair must be decoupled with an appropriate capacitor. Note that this
capacitance affects inrush-current limitation. One band-gap reference circuit supplies reference voltage for all
regulators. BGND (pin 1) is provided for reference ground of the band-gap reference.

The PCM2912 requires a 6-MHz ( ± 500 ppm) clock for USB function and audio function, which can be generated
by a built-in crystal oscillator with a 6-MHz crystal resonator. The 6-MHz crystal resonator must be connected to
XTI (pin 8) and XTO (pin 7) with one high (1-M Ω ) resistor and two small capacitors, whose capacitance depends
on the load capacitance of the crystal resonator. An external clock can be supplied from XTI; if an external clock
is supplied, XTO must be left open. Because there is no clock disabling signal, using the external clock supply is
not recommended. SSPND (pin 29) is unable to use clock disabling.
The PCM2912 has an internal power-on-reset circuit, which works automatically when V
BUS
(pin 2) exceeds 2.5
V, typical (2.2 V – 2.7 V), and approximately 700 µ s is required until the internal reset is released.
The PCM2912 has the stereo delta-sigma DAC which uses a 64-f
S
oversampling technique with 8-f
S
oversampling digital filter. DAC outputs are provided through the headphone amplifier, V

The PCM2912 has the mono delta-sigma ADC which uses a 64-f
S
oversampling technique with 1/64-f
S
decimation digital filter. Microphone input, V
IN
(pin 16), is fed to ADC through +20-dB microphone amplifier and
PGA which has +30 dB to – 12 dB in 1-dB steps.
The PCM2912 has the microphone bias generator, which provides low-noise, 0.75-V
CCA
, 2-mA source current
output with appropriate output impedance for electret-microphone driving. This output, MBIAS (pin 17) should be
bypassed to AGND (pin 13) through an appropriate capacitor for reducing output noise level.
