4. Analog Outputs
The analog outputs are full differential outputs and nominally 0.54 x VREF Vpp centered in the internal common voltage
(about VA/2). The differential outputs are summed externally, Vout=(AOUT+)-(AOUT-) between AOUT+ and AOUT-.
If the summing gain is 1, the output range is 5.4Vpp (typ@VREF=5V). The bias voltage of the external summing circuit is
supplied externally. The input data format is 2’s complement. The output voltage is a positive full scale for
7FFFFFH(@24bit) and a negative full scale for 800000H(@24bit). The ideal AOUT is 0V for 000000H(@24bit).
The internal switched-capacitor filter and the external LPF attenuate the noise generated by the delta-sigma modulator
beyond the audio passband.
Differential outputs can eliminate any DC offset on analog outputs without using capacitors. Figure 12 to Figure 14 show
the example of external op-amp circuit summing the differential outputs.
