PHONE OUTPUT (MONOOUT)
THERMAL SENSOR
The MONOOUT output (pin 33) is intended for connection to the TX side of a wireless chipset. The
signal is generated in a dedicated mono mixer; it is not necessarily a mono mix of the stereo outputs
HPOUTL/R or LOUT2/ROUT2 (see “Audio Mixers” section).
The MONOOUT volume can be controlled by writing to register 06h. When MONOOUT is not used,
the output buffer can be disabled to save power (see “Power Management” section). The MONOOUT
pin remains at the same DC level (the reference voltage on the VREF pin), so that no click noise is
produced when muting or un-muting.
Table 18 MONOOUT Control
The speaker and headphone outputs can drive very large currents. To protect the WM9712L from
becoming too hot, a thermal sensor has been built in. If the chip temperature reaches approximately
150C, and the ENT bit is set, the WM9712L deasserts GPIO bit 11 in register 54h, a virtual GPIO
that can be set up to generate an interrupt to the CPU (see “GPIO and Interrupt Control” section).
