The MAX9856 digital audio interface includes digital
first-order highpass filters (Table 8) for both the DAC
input and the ADC output. The corner frequency for
each filter is selectable from 5Hz to 4kHz. The DAC fil-
ter (DACHP) can be used to reduce the low-frequency

ADC Noise Gate Threshold. The MAX9856 features a noise gate that reduces the audible noise at
low signal levels. The noise gate attenuates the output at a rate of 1dB for each 2dB the signal is
below the threshold. ANTH specifies the noise gate threshold level relative to the final ADC output
signal level.
The noise gate can be used in conjunction with AGC or on its own. When AGC is enabled, the noise
gate reduces the output level only when the AGC has set the gain to the maximum setting. Choose a
threshold between -28dB and -48dB when used in conjunction with the AGC. When the AGC is
enabled, the effective noise gate thresholds are increased by 20dB due to the microphone PGA
being set to maximum gain by the AGC.

frequency noise such as wind noise from being con-
verted. The cutoff frequency depends on sample rate
and is shown in Table 9.
