AUDIO SAMPLE RATES
The WM8940 sample rates for the ADC and the DAC are set using the SR register bits. The cutoffs
for the digital filters and the ALC attack/decay times stated are determined using these values and
assume a 256fs master clock rate.
If a sample rate that is not explicitly supported by the SR register settings is required then the
closest SR value to that sample rate should be chosen, the filter characteristics and the ALC attack,
decay and hold times will scale appropriately.

MASTER CLOCK AND PHASE LOCKED LOOP (PLL)
The WM8940 has an on-chip phase-locked loop (PLL) circuit that can be used to:
•
•
Generate master clocks for the WM8940 audio functions from another external clock, e.g.
in telecoms applications.
Generate an output clock, on pin CSB/GPIO, for another part of the system (derived from
an existing audio master clock).
Figure 30 shows the PLL and internal clocking arrangement on the WM8940.
The PLL is enabled or disabled by the PLLEN register bit.
Note: In order to minimise current consumption, the PLL is disabled when the VMIDSEL[1:0] bits are
set to 00b. VMIDSEL[1:0] must be set to a value other than 00b to enable the PLL.
