The outputs of the 2 DACs are buffered out of the device by buffer amplifiers. These amplifiers will

source load current of several mA and sink current up to 1.5mA, so allowing significant loads to be

driven. The output source is active and the sink is Class A, i.e. fixed value, so greater loads might be

driven if an external ‘pull-down’ resistor is connected at the output.

Typically an external low pass filter circuit will be used to remove residual sampling noise of the 64x

oversampling used and if desired adjust the signal amplitude and device strength.

SERIAL DATA INTERFACE

WM8725 has serial interface formats that are fully compatible with both normal (MSB first,

right-justified) and I

FORMAT is LOW, normal data format is selected. When the format is HIGH, I

selected. It must be noted that in “packed” mode operation (exactly 32 BCLKs per LRCIN

period), the data word must align exactly with LRCIN clock edges (effectively both left and

right justified at the same time). This is true in both normal and I
