1. Grounding and Power Supply Decoupling
To minimize coupling by digital noise, decoupling capacitors should be connected to AVDD and DVDD, respectively.
AVDD is supplied from analog supply in system and DVDD is supplied from digital supply in system. Power lines of
AVDD and DVDD should be distributed separately from the point with low impedance of regulator etc. The power up
sequence between AVDD and DVDD is not critical. AVSS and DVSS must be connected to analog ground
plane. Decoupling capacitors for high frequency should be placed as near as possible.
2. Voltage Reference
The differential Voltage between VREFH and VREFL set the analog output range. VREFH pin is normally connected to
AVDD and VREFL pin is normally connected to AVSS. VREFH and VREFL should be connected with a 0.1µF ceramic
capacitor. VCOM is a signal ground of this chip. An electrolytic capacitor 10µF parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor
attached to VCOM pin eliminates the effects of high frequency noise. No load current may be drawn from VCOM pin. All
signals, especially clocks, should be kept away from the VREFH, VREFL and VCOM pins in order to avoid unwanted
coupling into the AK4396.
3. Analog Outputs
The analog outputs are full differential outputs and 2.8Vpp (typ, VREFH − VREFL = 5V) centered around VCOM. The
differential outputs are summed externally, V
summing gain is 1, the output range is 5.6Vpp (typ, VREFH − VREFL = 5V). The bias voltage of the external summing
circuit is supplied externally. The input data format is 2's complement. The output voltage (V

The internal switched-capacitor filters attenuate the noise generated by the delta-sigma modulator beyond the audio
passband. Figure 16 shows an example of external LPF circuit summing the differential outputs by an op-amp.
Figure 17 shows an example of differential outputs and LPF circuit example by three op-amps.
