PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The AD1896 is a 24-bit, high performance, single-chip, secondgeneration asynchronous sample rate converter. Based on Analog
Devices experience with its first asynchronous sample rate
converter, the AD1890, the AD1896 offers improved performance
and additional features. This improved performance includes a
THD + N range of –117 dB to –133 dB depending on the sample
rate and input frequency, 142 dB (A-Weighted) dynamic range,
192 kHz sampling frequencies for both input and output sample
rates, improved jitter rejection, and 1:8 upsampling and 7.75:1
downsampling ratios. Additional features include more serial
formats, a bypass mode, better interfacing to digital signal processors, and a matched-phase mode.
The AD1896 has a 3-wire interface for the serial input and
output ports that supports left-justified, I
(16-, 18-, 20-, 24-bit) modes. Additionally, the serial output

port supports TDM mode for daisy-chaining multiple AD1896s to
a digital signal processor. The serial output data is dithered down
to 20, 18, or 16 bits when 20-, 18-, or 16-bit output data is selected. The AD1896 sample rate converts the data from the
serial input port to the sample rate of the serial output port. The
sample rate at the serial input port can be asynchronous with
respect to the output sample rate of the output serial port. The
master clock to the AD1896, MCLK, can be asynchronous to
both the serial input and output ports.
MCLK can be generated either off-chip or on-chip by the AD1896
master clock oscillator. Since MCLK can be asynchronous to the
input or output serial ports, a crystal can be used to generate
MCLK internally to reduce noise and EMI emissions on the
board. When MCLK is synchronous to either the output or input
serial port, the AD1896 can be configured in a master mode where
MCLK is divided down and used to generate the left/right
and bit clocks for the serial port that is synchronous to MCLK.
The AD1896 supports master modes of 256 ¥ f
and 768 ¥ f
Conceptually, the AD1896 interpolates the serial input data by
a rate of 2
for both input and output serial ports.

and samples the interpolated data stream by the
output sample rate. In practice, a 64-tap FIR filter with 2
polyphases, a FIFO, a digital servo loop that measures the time
difference between the input and output samples within 5 ps,
and a digital circuit to track the sample rate ratio are used to
perform the interpolation and output sampling. Refer to the
Theory of Operation section. The digital servo loop and sample
rate ratio circuit automatically track the input and output
sample rates.

(Continued from Page1)
The digital servo loop measures the time difference between
the input and output sample rates within 5 ps. This is necessary
in order to select the correct polyphase filter coefficient. The
digital servo loop has excellent jitter rejection for both input and
output sample rates as well as the master clock. The jitter rejection begins at less than 1 Hz. This requires a long settling
time whenever RESET is deasserted or when the input or
output sample rate changes. To reduce the settling time, upon
deassertion of RESET or a change in a sample rate, the digital
servo loop enters the fast settling mode. When the digital servo
loop has adequately settled in the fast mode, it switches into the
normal or slow settling mode and continues to settle until the
time difference measurement between input and output sample
rates is within 5 ps. During fast mode, the MUTE_OUT signal
is asserted high. Normally, the MUTE_OUT is connected to the
MUTE_IN pin. The MUTE_IN signal is used to softly mute
the AD1896 upon assertion and softly unmute the AD1896
when it is deasserted.
The sample rate ratio circuit is used to scale the filter length of
the FIR filter for decimation. Hysteresis in measuring the
sample rate ratio is used to avoid oscillations in the scaling of
the filter length, which would cause distortion on the output.
However, when multiple AD1896s are used with the same serial
input port clock and the same serial output port clock, the hysteresis causes different group delays between multiple AD1896s.
A phase-matching mode feature was added to the AD1896 to
address this problem. In phase-matching mode, one AD1896,
the master, transmits its sample rate ratio to the other AD1896s,
the slaves, so that the group delay between the multiple AD1896s
remains the same.
The group delay of the AD1896 can be adjusted for short or
long delay. An address offset is added to the write pointer of the
FIFO in the sample rate converter. This offset is set to 16 for
short delay and 64 for long delay. In long delay, the group delay
is effectively increased by 48 input sample clocks.
The sample rate converter of the AD1896 can be bypassed
altogether using the bypass mode. In bypass mode, the AD1896’s
serial input data is directly passed to the serial output port without any dithering. This is useful for passing through nonaudio
data or when the input and output sample rates are synchronous
to one another and the sample rate ratio is exactly 1 to 1.
The AD1896 is a 3.3 V, 5 V input tolerant part and is available
in a 28-lead SSOP package. The AD1896 is 5 V input-tolerant
only when the VDD_IO supply pin is supplied with 5 V.

ASRC FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW
THEORY OF OPERATION
Asynchronous sample rate conversion is converting data from
one clock source at some sample rate to another clock source at
the same or a different sample rate. The simplest approach to an
asynchronous sample rate conversion is the use of a zero-order
hold between the two samplers shown in Figure 4. In an asynchronous system, T2 is never equal to T1 nor is the ratio between
T2 and T1 rational. As a result, samples at f
will be repeated
S_OUT
or dropped producing an error in the resampling process. The
frequency domain shows the wide side lobes that result from
this error when the sampling of f
is convolved with the
S_OUT
attenuated images from the sin(x)/x nature of the zero-order
hold. The images at f
, dc signal images, of the zero-order
S_IN
hold are infinitely attenuated. Since the ratio of T2 to T1 is an
irrational number, the error resulting from the resampling at
can never be eliminated. However, the error can be sig-

THE CONCEPTUAL HIGH INTERPOLATION MODEL
Interpolation of the input data by a factor of 220 involves placing

(2
– 1) samples between each f
both the time domain and the frequency domain of interpolation
by a factor of 2

. Conceptually, interpolation by 220 would

In the frequency domain shown in Figure 6, the interpolation
expands the frequency axis of the zero-order hold. The images
from the interpolation can be sufficiently attenuated by a good
low-pass filter. The images from the zero-order hold are now
pushed by a factor of 2
of the zero-order hold, which is f

the output samples is less than the Nyquist frequency of the
input samples. To move the cutoff frequency of the antialiasing
filter, the coefficients are dynamically altered and the length
of the convolution is increased by a factor of (f
S_IN/fS_OUT
).
This technique is supported by the Fourier transform property
that if f(t) is F(w), then f(k ¥ t) is F(w/k). Thus, the range of
decimation is simply limited by the size of the RAM.
THE SAMPLE RATE CONVERTER ARCHITECTURE
The architecture of the sample rate converter is shown in
Figure 7. The sample rate converter’s FIFO block adjusts the
left and right input samples and stores them for the FIR filter’s
convolution cycle. The f
counter provides the write address
S_IN
to the FIFO block and the ramp input to the digital servo
loop. The ROM stores the coefficients for the FIR filter convolution and performs a high order interpolation between the
stored coefficients. The sample rate ratio block measures the
sample rate for dynamically altering the ROM coefficients and
scaling of the FIR filter length as well as the input data. The
digital servo loop automatically tracks the f
S_IN
and f
S_OUT
sample rates and provides the RAM and ROM start addresses
for the start of the FIR filter convolution.
HARDWARE MODEL
The output rate of the low-pass filter of Figure 5 would be the
interpolation
rate, 220 ¥ 192000 kHz = 201.3 GHz. Sampling at
a rate of 201.3 GHz is clearly impractical, not to mention the
number of taps required to calculate each interpolated sample.
However, since interpolation by 2
samples between each f
S_IN
20
involves zero-stuffing 220– 1
sample, most of the multiplies in
the low-pass FIR filter are by zero. A further reduction can be
realized by the fact that since only one interpolated sample is
taken at the output at the f
needs to be performed per f
lutions. A 64-tap FIR filter for each f
rate, only one convolution
S_OUT
period instead of 220 convo-
S_OUT
sample is sufficient
S_OUT
to suppress the images caused by the interpolation.
The difficulty with the above approach is that the correct interpolated sample needs to be selected upon the arrival of f
Since there are 2

clock of 201.3 GHz frequency is clearly impossible; instead,
several coarse measurements of the f
clock period are made
S_OUT
and averaged over time.
Another difficulty with the above approach is the number of
coefficients required. Since there are 2
with a 64-tap FIR filter, there needs to be 2
cients for each tap, which requires a total of 2

small subset of coefficients and performs a high order interpolation between the stored coefficients. So far the above approach
works for the case of f

Figure 7. Architecture of the Sample Rate Converter
The FIFO receives the left and right input data and adjusts the
amplitude of the data for both the soft muting of the sample rate
converter and the scaling of the input data by the sample rate
ratio before storing the samples in the RAM. The input data is
scaled by the sample rate ratio because as the FIR filter length
of the convolution increases, so does the amplitude of the
convolution output. To keep the output of the FIR filter from
saturating, the input data is scaled down by multiplying it by
(f
S_OUT/fS_IN
) when f
S_OUT
< f
. The FIFO also scales the input
S_IN
data for muting and unmuting of the AD1896.
The RAM in the FIFO is 512 words deep for both left and right
channels. An offset to the write address provided by the f
S_IN
counter is added to prevent the RAM read pointer from ever
overlapping the write address. The offset is selectable by the
GRPDLYS, group delay select, signal. A small offset, 16, is
added to the write address pointer when GRPDLYS is high,
and a large offset, 64, is added to the write address pointer when
GRPDLYS is low. Increasing the offset of the write address pointer
is useful for applications when small changes in the sample rate
ratio between f
S_IN
and f
are expected. The maximum deci-
S_OUT
mation rate can be calculated from the RAM word depth and
GRPDLYS as (512 – 16)/64 taps = 7.75 for short group delay and
(512 – 64)/64 taps = 7 for long group delay.

Figure 8. Frequency Response of the Digital Servo Loop. f
Frequency Is 30 MHz.
The digital servo loop is essentially a ramp filter that provides
the initial pointer to the address in RAM and ROM for the start
of the FIR convolution. The RAM pointer is the integer output
of the ramp filter while the ROM is the fractional part. The
digital servo loop must be able to provide excellent rejection of
jitter on the f
of the f
S_OUT
and f
S_IN
clock within 4.97 ps. The digital servo loop will
clocks as well as measure the arrival

also divide the fractional part of the ramp output by the ratio of
f
S_IN/fS_OUT
for the case when f

, to dynamically alter

the ROM coefficients.
The digital servo loop is implemented with a multirate filter. To
settle the digital servo loop filter quicker upon start-up or a change
in the sample rate, a “fast mode” was added to the filter. When
the digital servo loop starts up or the sample rate is changed, the
digital servo loop kicks into “fast mode” to adjust and settle
on the new sample rate. Upon sensing the digital servo loop
settling down to some reasonable value, the digital servo loop
will kick into “normal” or “slow mode.” During “fast mode”
the MUTE_OUT signal of the sample rate converter is asserted
to let the user know that they should mute the sample rate
converter to avoid any clicks or pops. The frequency response of
the digital servo loop for “fast mode” and “slow mode” are
shown in Figure 8.

However, the hysteresis of the f

phase mismatching between two AD1896s operating with the

in the phase difference will depend upon the resolution of the
f
S_OUT
and f
counters. The greater the resolution of the
S_IN
counters, the smaller the phase difference error will be.
The f
S_IN
and f
counters of the AD1896 have three bits of
S_OUT
extra resolution over the AD1890, which reduces the phase
mismatch error by a factor of 8. However, an additional feature
was added to the AD1896 to eliminate the phase mismatching
completely. One AD1896 can set the f
AD1896s by transmitting its f
S_OUT/fS_IN
S_OUT/fS_IN
ratio of other
ratio through the
serial output port.
OPERATING FEATURES
RESET and Power-Down
When RESET is asserted low, the AD1896 will turn off the
master clock input to the AD1896, MCLK_I, initialize all of its
internal registers to their default values, and three-state all of the
I/O pins. While RESET is active low, the AD1896 is consuming
minimum power. For the lowest possible power consumption
while RESET is active low, all of the input pins to the AD1896
should be static.
When RESET is deasserted, the AD1896 begins its initialization
routine where all locations in the FIFO are initialized to zero,
MUTE_OUT is asserted high, and any I/O pins configured as
outputs are enabled. When RESET is deasserted, the master
serial port clock pins SCLK_I/O and LRCLK_I/O become
active after 1024 MCLK-I cycles. The mute control counter,
which controls the soft mute attenuation of the input samples,
is initialized to maximum attenuation, –144 dB (see the Mute
Control section).
When asserting RESET and deasserting RESET, the RESET
should be held low for a minimum of five MCLK_I cycles.
During power-up, the RESET should be held low until the
power supplies have stabilized. It is recommended that the
AD1896 be reset when changing modes.
Power Supply and Voltage Reference
The AD1896 is designed for 3 V operation with 5 V input tolerance on the input pins. VDD_CORE is the 3 V supply that is
used to power the core logic of the AD1896 and to drive the
output pins. VDD_IO is used to set the input voltage tolerance
of the input pins. In order for the input pins to be 5 V input
tolerant, VDD_IO must be connected to a 5 V supply. If the
input pins do not have to be 5 V input tolerant, then
VDD_IO can be connected to VDD_CORE. VDD_IO should
never be less than VDD_CORE. VDD_CORE and VDD_IO
should be bypassed with 100 nF ceramic chip capacitors, as
close to the pins as possible, to minimize power supply and
ground bounce caused by inductance in the traces. A bulk aluminium electrolytic capacitor of 47 mF should also be provided
on the same PC board as the AD1896.
Digital Filter Group Delay
The group delay of the digital filter may be selected by the logic
pin GRPDLYS. As mentioned in the Theory of Operation section,
this pin is particularly useful in varispeed applications. The
GRPDLYS pin has an internal pull-up resistor of approximately
33 kW to VDD_CORE. When GRPDLYS is high, the filter group
delay will be short and is given by the equation:

NOTE: For the long group delay mode, the decimation ratio is

Mute Control
When the MUTE_IN pin is asserted high, the MUTE_IN control
will perform a soft mute by linearly decreasing the input data to
the AD1896 FIFO to zero, –144 dB attenuation. When MUTE_IN
is deasserted low, the MUTE_IN control will linearly decrease
the attenuation of the input data to 0 dB. A 12-bit counter,
clocked by LRCLK_I, is used to control the mute attenuation.
Therefore, the time it will take from the assertion of MUTE_IN
to –144 dB full mute attenuation is 4096/LRCLK_I seconds.
Likewise, the time it will take to reach 0 dB mute attenuation from
the deassertion of MUTE_IN is 4096/LRCLK_I seconds.
Upon RESET, or a change in the sample rate between LRCLK_I
and LRCLK_O, the MUTE_OUT pin will be asserted high. The
MUTE_OUT pin will remain asserted high until the digital
servo loop’s internal fast settling mode has completed. When
the digital servo loop has switched to slow settling mode, the
MUTE_OUT pin will deassert. While MUTE_OUT is asserted,
the MUTE_IN pin should be asserted as well to prevent any
major distortion in the audio output samples.
Master Clock
A digital clock connected to the MCLK_I pin or a fundamental
or third overtone crystal connected between MCLK_I and
MCLK_O can be used to generate the master clock, MCLK_I.
The MCLK_I pin can be 5 V input tolerant just like any of the
other AD1896 input pins. A fundamental mode crystal can be
inserted between MCLK_I and MCLK_O for master clock
frequency generation up to 27 MHz. For master clock frequency generation with a crystal beyond 27 MHz, it is
recommended that the user use a third overtone crystal and to
add an LC filter at the output of MCLK_O to filter out the
fundamental, do not notch filter the fundamental. Please refer
to your quartz crystal supplier for values for external capacitors and inductor components.

There are, of course, maximum and minimum operating frequencies for the AD1896 master clock. The maximum master
clock frequency at which the AD1896 is guaranteed to operate is
30 MHz. A frequency of 30 MHz is more than sufficient to
sample rate convert sampling frequencies of 192 kHz + 12%.
The minimum required frequency for the master clock generation
for the AD1896 depends upon the input and output sample
rates. The master clock has to be at least 138 times greater than
the maximum input or output sample rate.
Serial Data Ports—Data Format

TDM MODE APPLICATION
In TDM mode, several AD1896s can be daisy-chained together
and connected to the serial input port of a SHARC DSP. The
AD1896 contains a 64-bit parallel load shift register. When the
LRCLK_O pulse arrives, each AD1896 parallel loads its left and
right data into the 64-bit shift register. The input to the shift
register is connected to TDM_IN, while the output is connected
to SDATA_O. By connecting the SDATA_O to the TDM_IN

of the next AD1896, a large shift register is created, which is
clocked by SCLK_O.
The number of AD1896s that can be daisy-chained together is
limited by the maximum frequency of SCLK_O, which is about
25 MHz. For example, if the output sample rate, f
up to eight AD1896s could be connected since 512 ¥ f

S
is less

than 25 MHz. In master/TDM mode, the number of AD1896s
that can be daisy-chained is fixed to four.

Figure 13. Typical Configuration for Matched-Phase Mode Operation
Serial Data Port Master Clock Modes
Either of the AD1896 serial ports can be configured as a master
serial data port. However, only one serial port can be a master
while the other has to be a slave. In master mode, the AD1896
requires a 256 ¥ f
, 512 ¥ fS, or 768 ¥ fS master clock (MCLK_I).
S
For a maximum master clock frequency of 30 MHz, the maximum sample rate is limited to 96 kHz. In slave mode, sample
rates up to 192 kHz can be handled.
When either of the serial ports is operated in master mode, the
master clock is divided down to derive the associated left/
right subframe clock (LRCLK) and serial bit clock (SCLK).
The master clock frequency can be selected for 256, 512, or 768
times the input or output sample rate. Both the input and output serial ports will support master mode LRCLK and SCLK
generation for all serial modes, left justified, I2S, right justified, and
TDM for the output serial port.

AD1896
Matched-Phase Mode
The matched-phase mode is the mode discussed in the Theory of
Operation section that eliminates the phase mismatch between
multiple AD1896s. The master AD1896 device transmits
its f
S_OUT/fS_IN
ratio through the SDATA_O pin to the slave
AD1896’s TDM_IN pins. The slave AD1896s receive the
transmitted f
f
ratio instead of their own internally derived f
S_IN
S_OUT/fS_IN
ratio and use the transmitted f
S_OUT/fS_IN
S_OUT
/
ratio. The master device can have both its serial ports in slave
mode as depicted or either one in master mode. The slave
AD1896s must have their MMODE_2, MMODE_1, and
MMODE_0 pins set to 100, respectively. LRCLK_I and
LRCLK_O may be asynchronous with respect to each other in
this mode. Another requirement of the matched-phase mode is
that there must be 32 SCLK_O cycles per subframe. The
AD1896 will support the matched-phase mode for all serial
output data formats, left justified, I
2
S, right justified, and
TDM. In the case of TDM, the AD1896 shown in the TDM
mode operation figure with its TDM_IN tied to ground would be
AUDIO DATA LEFT CHANNEL, 24 BITS
MATCHED-PHASE
DATA , 8 BITS
configured as the master, while the rest of the AD1896s in the
chain would be configured as slaves with their MMODE_2,
MMODE_1, and MMODE_0 pins set to 100, respectively.
Please note that in the left-justified, I
2
S, and TDM modes,
the lower eight bits of each channel subframe are used to
transmit the matched-phase data. In right-justified mode, the
upper eight bits are used to transmit the matched-phase data.
This is shown in Figures 14a and 14b.
Bypass Mode
When the BYPASS pin is asserted high, the input data bypasses
the sample rate converter and is sent directly to the serial output
port. Dithering of the output data when the word length is set
to less than 24 bits is disabled. This mode is ideal when the
input and output sample rates are the same and LRCLK_I and
LRCLK_O are synchronous with respect to each other. This
mode can also be used for passing through non-AUDIO data
since no processing is performed on the input data in this mode.
