DAC BIAS CONTROL
The analogue circuits within the DAC use the Master bias current (see “Reference Voltages and
Master Bias”). The DAC bias currents can also be reduced using the DACBIAS_SEL and
DACVMID_SEL fields as described in Table 33. These can be used to reduce power consumption,
but may have a marginal impact on audio performance in some usage modes.
The DAC bias currents can be increased using the DAC_BIAS_BOOST field. Setting this bit doubles
the bias level of DACBIAS_SEL and DACVMID_BIAS_SEL. This offers a performance improvement,
but also an increase in power consumption.
Note that the increased DAC VMID buffer bias is unlikely to give better performance; when
DAC_BIAS_BOOST is set, it is recommended to set DACVMID_BIAS_SEL = 01 in order to restore
the Normal DAC VMID buffer bias level.
Table 33 DAC Bias Control
DAC OVERSAMPLING RATIO (OSR)
The DAC oversampling rate is programmable to allow power consumption versus audio performance
trade-offs. The default oversampling rate is low for reduced power consumption; using the higher
OSR setting improves the DAC signal-to-noise performance.

When DAC Bias boost is enabled, the
bias selected by DACBIAS_SEL and
DACVMID_BIAS_SEL are both
doubled.
