DEVICE DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION
The WM8532 provides high fidelity, selectable 1V
RMS
or 2V
RMS
ground referenced stereo line
output from a single supply line with minimal external components. The integrated DC servo
eliminates the requirement for external mute circuitry by minimising DC transients at the
output during power up/down. The device is well-suited to both stereo and multi-channel
systems.
The device supports all common audio sampling rates between 8kHz and 192kHz using
common MCLK fs rates, with a slave mode audio interface.
The WM8532 supports a simple hardware control mode, allowing access to 24-bit LJ and I

audio interface formats, mute control, de-emphasis filter and output level select. An internal
audio interface clock monitor automatically mutes the DAC output if the BCLK is interrupted.
DIGITAL AUDIO INTERFACE
The digital audio interface is used for inputting audio data to the WM8532. The digital audio
interface uses three pins:
DACDAT: DAC data input
LRCLK: Left/Right data alignment clock
BCLK: Bit clock, for synchronisation
The WM8532 digital audio interface operates as a slave as shown in Figure 5.

INTERFACE FORMATS
The WM8532 supports two different audio data formats:

S
Both of these modes are MSB first. They are described in Audio Data Formats on page 13.
