POWER-DOWN OPERATION
The PCM4104 can be forced to a power-down state by
applying a low level to the RST
input for a minimum of
65,536 system clock cycles. In power-down mode, all
internal clocks are stopped, and analog outputs are set to
a high-impedance state. The system clock can then be
removed to conserve additional power. In the case of
system clock restart when exiting the power-down state,
the clock should be restarted prior to a low-to-high
transition of the reset signal at the RST
input. The
low-to-high transition of the reset signal initiates a reset
sequence, as described in the Reset Operation section of
this data sheet.
In Software mode, two additional power-down controls are
provided. The PDN12 and PDN34 bits are located in
Control Register 6 and
may be used to power-down
channel pairs, with PDN12 corresponding to channels 1
and 2, and PDN34 corresponding to channels 3 and 4.
This allows the user to conserve power when a channel
pair is not in use. The power-down function is the same as
described in the previous paragraph for the corresponding
channel pair. Unlike the power-down function
implemented using the RST
input, setting a power-down
bit will immediately power down the corresponding
channel pair.
When exiting power-down mode, either by forcing the RST
input high or by setting the PDN12 or PDN34 bits low, the
analog outputs will transition from the high-impedance
state to the mute state, with the output level set to the
bipolar zero voltage. There may be a small transient
created by this transition, since internal capacitor charge
can initially force the output to a voltage above or below
bipolar zero, or external circuitry can pull the outputs to
some other voltage level. Figure 8 illustrates the state of
the analog outputs before, during, and after a power-down
event.
