Reset and Power-Up
Reliable power-up can be accomplished by keeping the device in reset until the power supplies, clocks, and
configuration pins are stable. It is also recommended that the RST pin be activated if the voltage supplies
drop below the recommended operating condition to prevent power-glitch- related issues.
When RST is low, the CS44800 enters a low-power mode and all internal states are reset, including the
control port and registers. When RST is high, the control port becomes operational and the desired settings
should be loaded into the control registers. Writing a 0 to the PDN bit in the Power Control Register will then
cause the part to leave the low-power state and begin operation.
PWM PopGuard
The CS44800 uses PopGuard
and power-down. This technique reduces the audio transients commonly produced by half-bridge, single-
supply amplifiers when implemented with external DC-blocking capacitors connected in series with the
audio outputs. Each PWM channel can individually be controlled for ramp-up and ramp-down cycles.
When the device is initially powered-up and configured for ramp-up, the PWMOUTxx outputs are clamped
to GND. Following a write of a 0 to the PDN_PWMxx bit in the
dress 03h)
a speed set by the RAMP_SPDx bits, the PWMOUTxx outputs will ramp from 0 V (GND) and reach the
bias point (50% PWM duty cycle). This gradual voltage ramping allows time for the external DC-blocking
capacitor to charge to the bias voltage, minimizing the power-up transient.
To prevent an audible transient at the next power-on, the DC-blocking capacitors must fully discharge be-
fore turning off the power. If full discharge does not occur, a transient will occur when the audio outputs
are initially clamped to GND.
To prevent transients at power-down, the user must first mute the outputs. When this occurs, audio output
ceases and the PWM duty cycle is approximately 50% duty cycle, which represents the mute condition.
Once the channels are powered down, the PWMOUTxx outputs slowly decrease the DC offset until it
reaches GND. The time required to reach GND is determined by the RAMP_SPDx bits. This allows the
DC-blocking capacitors to slowly discharge. Once this charge is dissipated, the power to the device may
be turned off, and the system is ready for the next power-on.
