1. Grounding and Power Supply Decoupling
VDD and VSS are supplied from analog supply and must be separated from system digital supply. Decoupling capacitor,
especially 0.1μF ceramic capacitor, for high frequency should be placed as near to VDD as possible. The differential
voltage between VDD and VSS pins set the analog output range.
2. Analog Outputs
The analog outputs are single-ended and centered on the VCOM voltage. The output signal range is typically 3.20Vpp
(typ@VDD=5V). The internal switched-capacitor filter and continuous-time filter attenuate the noise generated by the
delta-sigma modulator beyond the audio passband. The output voltage is a positive full scale for 7FFFFFH (@24bit) and
a negative full scale for 800000H (@24bit). The ideal output is VCOM voltage for 000000H (@24bit).
The analog outputs have DC offsets of VCOM + a few mV. This DC offsets on analog outputs are eliminated by AC
coupling.
Figure 12 shows an example of the external LPF with 3.20Vpp (1.13Vrms) output. Figure 13 shows an
example of the external LPF with 2Vrms output.
