Soft mute operation is performed in the digital domain. When the SMUTE bit goes to “1”, the output signal is attenuated
by −∞ during the ATT_DATA×ATT transition time (Table 18) from the current ATT level. When the SMUTE bit is
returned to “0”, the mute is cancelled and the output attenuation gradually changes to the ATT level during
ATT_DATA×ATT transition time. If the soft mute is cancelled before attenuating to −∞ after starting the operation, the
attenuation is discontinued and is returned to the ATT level by the same cycle. The soft mute is effective for changing the
signal source without stopping the signal transmission.
