The analogue outputs from the DACs can then be mixed with the aux analogue inputs and the ADC
analogue inputs. The mix is fed to the output drivers for headphone (LOUT1/ROUT1), speaker
(LOUT2/ROUT2) or line (OUT3/OUT4). OUT3 and OUT4 have additional mixers which allow them
to output different signals to the headphone and speaker outputs.
Digital data is passed to the WM8978 via the flexible audio interface and is then passed through a
variety of advanced digital filters (as shown in Figure 21) to the hi-fi DACs. The DACs are enabled
by the DACENL/R register bits.
The WM8978 also has a Soft Mute function, which, when enabled, gradually attenuates the volume
of the digital signal to zero. When disabled, the gain will ramp back up to the digital gain setting. This
function is enabled by default. To play back an audio signal, this function must first be disabled by
setting the SOFTMUTE bit to zero.
The digital audio data is converted to oversampled bit streams in the on-chip, true 24-bit digital
interpolation filters. The bitstream data enters the multi-bit, sigma-delta DACs, which convert it to a
high quality analogue audio signal. The multi-bit DAC architecture reduces high frequency noise and
sensitivity to clock jitter. It also uses a Dynamic Element Matching technique for high linearity and
low distortion.
