DIGITAL AUDIO INTERFACES
WM8731/L may be operated in either one of the 4 offered audio interface modes. These are:
•
•
•
•
Right justified
Left justified
I2S
DSP mode
All four of these modes are MSB first and operate with data 16 to 32 bits.
Note that 32 bit data is not supported in right justified mode.
The digital audio interface takes the data from the internal ADC digital filter and places it on the
ADCDAT output. ADCDAT is the formatted digital audio data stream output from the ADC digital
filters with left and right channels multiplexed together. ADCLRC is an alignment clock that controls
whether Left or Right channel data is present on the ADCDAT lines. ADCDAT and ADCLRC are
synchronous with the BCLK signal with each data bit transition signified by a BCLK high to low
transition. BCLK maybe an input or an output dependent on whether the device is in master or slave
mode. Refer to the MASTER/SLAVE OPERATION section
The digital audio interface also receives the digital audio data for the internal DAC digital filters on the
DACDAT input. DACDAT is the formatted digital audio data stream output to the DAC digital filters
with left and right channels multiplexed together. DACLRC is an alignment clock that controls
whether Left or Right channel data is present on DACDAT. DACDAT and DACLRC are synchronous
with the BCLK signal with each data bit transition signified by a BCLK high to low transition. DACDAT
is always an input. BCLK and DACLRC are either outputs or inputs depending whether the device is
in master or slave mode. Refer to the MASTER/SLAVE OPERATION section
There are four digital audio interface formats accommodated by the WM8731/L. These are shown in
the figures below. Refer to the Electrical Characteristic section for timing information.
Left Justified mode is where the MSB is available on the first rising edge of BCLK following a ADCLR
or DACLRC transition.
