ASAHI KASEI
[AK5351]
OPERATION OVERVIEW
System clock
In slave mode, MCLK(256fs/384fs), LRCK(fs) and SCLK(64fs) are required for AK5351. Use a signal divided
from the MCLK for LRCK. In master mode, only MCLK is needed. A LRCK clock rate meets standard audio
rates (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz). In slave mode, the MCLK should be synchronized with LRCK but the phase is
free of care.
The AK5351 includes the phase detect circuit for LRCK clock, the AK5351 is reset automatically when the
synchronization is out of phase by changing the clock frequencies. (Please refer to the "Asynchronization -
reset."). When changing sampling frequency(fs) after power-up, AK5351 should be reset.
During the operation (PD="H") following external clocks should never be stopped : CLK in master mode and
MCLK, SCLK and LRCK in slave mode. When the clocks stop there is a possibility that the device comes into
a malfunction because of over currents in the dynamic logic. If the external clocks are not present, the AK5351
should be in the power-down mode. (PD="L")
