WM8961
NOISE GATE
When the signal is very quiet and consists mainly of noise, the ALC function may cause “noise
pumping”, i.e. loud hissing noise during silence periods. The WM8961 has a noise gate function that
prevents noise pumping by comparing the signal level at the input pins against a noise gate threshold,
NGTH. The noise gate cuts in when:
This is equivalent to:
The PGA gain can then either be muted or held constant (preventing it from ramping up as it normally
would when the signal is quiet) using the NGG bit.
The table below summarises the noise gate control register. The NGTH control bits set the noise gate
threshold with respect to the ADC full-scale range. The threshold is adjusted in 1.5dB steps. Levels at
the extremes of the range may cause inappropriate operation, so care should be taken with set–up of
the function. Note that the noise gate only works in conjunction with the ALC function, and always
operates on the same channel(s) as the ALC (left, right, both, or none).
