CLOCKING AND SAMPLE RATES
CLOCK OUTPUT
By default ADCLRC (pin 9) is the ADC word clock input/output. Under the control of ADCLRM[1:0],
register 27(1Bh) bits [8:7] the ADCLRC pin may be configured as a clock output. If ADCLRM is 01,
10 or 11 then ADCLRC pin is always an output even in slave mode or when TRI = ‘1’, (see Table 38).
The ADC then uses the DACLRC pin as its LRCLK in both master and slave modes.
Table 38 ADCLRC Clock Output
The WM8973L supports a wide range of master clock frequencies on the MCLK pin, and can
generate many commonly used audio sample rates directly from the master clock. The ADC and
DAC do not need to run at the same sample rate; several different combinations are possible.
There are two clocking modes:
Table 39 Clocking and Sample Rate Control
The clocking of the WM8973L is controlled using the CLKDIV2, USB, and SR control bits. Setting the
CLKDIV2 bit divides MCLK by two internally. The USB bit selects between ‘Normal’ and USB mode.
Each value of SR[4:0] selects one combination of MCLK division ratios and hence one combination
of sample rates (see next page). Since all sample rates are generated by dividing MCLK, their
accuracy depends on the accuracy of MCLK. If MCLK changes, the sample rates change
proportionately.
Note that some sample rates (e.g. 44.1kHz in USB mode) are approximated, i.e. they differ from their
target value by a very small amount. This is not audible, as the maximum deviation is only 0.27%
(8.0214kHz instead of 8kHz in USB mode). By comparison, a half-tone step corresponds to a 5.9%
change in pitch.
The SR[4:0] bits must be set to configure the appropriate ADC and DAC sample rates in both master
and slave mode.

‘Normal’ mode supports master clocks of 128f

USB mode supports 12MHz or 24MHz master clocks. This mode is intended for use in
systems with a USB interface, and eliminates the need for an external PLL to generate
another clock frequency for the audio codec.
