DIGITAL ADC VOLUME CONTROL
The output of the ADCs can be digitally attenuated over a range from –127dB to 0dB in 0.5dB steps.
The gain for a given eight-bit code X is given by:
Gain = 0.5 x (x–255) dB for 1 ≤ x ≤ 255, MUTE for x = 0
Table 13 ADC Volume
The WM8510 has an automatic PGA gain control circuit, which can function as an input peak limiter
or as an automatic level control (ALC).
The Automatic Level Control (ALC) provides continuous adjustment of the input PGA in response to
the amplitude of the input signal. A digital peak detector monitors the input signal amplitude and
compares it to a register defined threshold level (ALCLVL).
If the signal is below the threshold, the ALC will increase the gain of the PGA at a rate set by
ALCDCY. If the signal is above the threshold, the ALC will reduce the gain of the PGA at a rate set
by ALCATK.
The ALC has two modes selected by the ALCMODE register: normal mode and peak limiter mode.
The ALC/limiter function is enabled by setting the register bit R32[8] ALCSEL.
