I / O

Functional Description

SYNC

10

I

AC Link frame marker and Warm Reset

This input defines the boundaries of AC Link frames. Each frame lasts 256 periods of

BIT_CLK. In normal operation SYNC is a 48 kHz positive pulse with a duty cycle of 6.25%

(16/256). SYNC is sampled on the falling edge of BIT_CLK and the codec takes the first

positive sample of SYNC as defining the start of a new AC Link frame. If a subsequent SYNC

pulse occurs within 255 BIT_CLK periods of the frame start it will be ignored.

SYNC is also used as an active high input to perform an (asynchronous) Warm Reset. Warm

Reset is used to clear a power down state on the codec AC Link interface.

RESET#

11

I

Cold Reset

This active low signal causes a hardware reset which returns the control registers and all

internal circuits to their default conditions. RESET# MUST be used to initialize the LM4546B

after Power On when the supplies have stabilized. Cold Reset also clears the codec from

both ATE and Vendor test modes. In addition, while active, it switches the PC_BEEP mono

input directly to both channels of the LINE_OUT stereo output.

ID0

45

I

Codec Identity

ID1 and ID0 determine the Codec Identity for multiple codec use. The Codec Identity

configures the codec in either Primary or one of three Secondary Codec modes. These

Identity pins are of inverted polarity relative to the Codec Identity bits ID1, ID0 (bits D15, D14)

in the read-only Extended Audio ID register, 28h. If the ID0# pin (pin 45) is connected to

ground then the ID0 bit (D14, reg 28h) will be set to “1”. Similarly, connection to DV

the ID0 bit to “0”. If left open (NC), ID0# is pulled high by an internal pull-up resistor.

ID1

46

I

Codec Identity

ID1# and ID0# determine the codec address for multiple codec use. The Codec Identity

configures the codec in either Primary or one of three Secondary Codec modes. These

Identity pins are of inverted polarity relative to the Codec Identity bits ID1, ID0 (bits D15, D14)

in the read-only Extended Audio ID register, 28h. If the ID1# pin (pin 46) is connected to

ground then the ID1 bit (D15, reg 28h) will be set to “1”. Similarly, connection to DV

the ID1 bit to “0”. If left open (NC), ID1# is pulled high by an internal pull-up resistor.

I / O

Functional Description

3DP, 3DN

33,34

O

These pins are used to complete the National 3D Sound stereo enhancement circuit. Connect

a 0.022 µF capacitor between pins 3DP and 3DN. National 3D Sound can be turned on and

off via the 3D bit (D13) in the General Purpose register, 20h. National 3D Sound uses a

fixed-depth type stereo enhancement circuit hence the 3D Control register, 22h is read-only

and is not programmable. If National 3D Sound is not needed, these pins should be left open

(NC).
