Description

The CDB4382 evaluation board is an excellent means for quickly evaluating the CS4382 24-bit, eight channel D/A converter. Evaluation requires an analog signal an­alyzer, a digital signal source, a PC for controlling the CS4382 (for control port mode only) and a power supply. Analog line level outputs are provided via RCA phono jacks.
The CS8414 digital audio receiver I.C. provides the sys­tem timing necessary to operate the Digital-to-Analog converter and will accept S/PDIF, and EIAJ-340 compat­ible audio data. The evaluation board may also be configured to accept external timing and data signals for operation in a user application during system development.

CDB4382 SYSTEM OVERVIEW
CDB4382
The CDB4382 evaluation board is an excellent means of quickly evaluating the CS4382. The CS8414 digital audio interface receiver provides an easy interface to digital audio signal sources in­cluding the majority of digital audio test equip­ment. The evaluation board also allows the user to supply either PCM or DSD clocks and data through headers for system development.
The CDB4382 schematic has been partitioned into 10 schematics shown in Figures 3 through 12. Each partitioned schematic is represented in the system diagram shown in Figure 2. Notice that the system diagram also includes the interconnections be­tween the partitioned schematics.

A description of the CS4382 is included in the CS4382 datasheet.
and data. The schematic for the clock/data input is shown in Figure 5.
Header J16 allows the evaluation board to accept externally generated DSD data and clock. The schematic for the clock/data input is shown in Figure 6. A synchronous MCLK must still be pro­vided via header J15. Please see the CS4382 datasheet for more information.

4. POWER SUPPLY CIRCUITRY

Power is supplied to the evaluation board by seven binding posts (GND, +5V, VLS, VLC, VD, +18V and -18V), see Figure 12. The VLC and VLS sup­plies can be jumpered to the +5V binding post for ease of use. VD and VA should be set to the recom­mended values stated in the CS4382 datasheet. +18V and -18V supply power to the op-amps and can be +/-5 to +/-18 volts (must be +/-18 V when filter 2 is selected).

2. CS8414 DIGITAL AUDIO RECEIVER

The system receives and decodes the standard S/PDIF data format using a CS8414 Digital Audio Receiver, Figure 4. The outputs of the CS8414 in­clude a serial bit clock, serial data, left-right clock (FSYNC), and a 256 Fs master clock. The CS8414 data format has been configured for I ation of the CS8414 and a discussion of the digital audio interface is included in the CS8414 datasheet.
The evaluation board has been designed such that the input can be either optical or coax, see Figure 4. However, both inputs cannot be driven simulta­neously.

maximum allowable voltages levels. Operation outside of this range can cause permanent damage to the device.

5. GROUNDING AND POWER SUPPLY DECOUPLING

The CS4382 requires careful attention to power supply and grounding arrangements to optimize performance. Figure 3 details the connections to the CS4382 and Figures 13 & 14, 15 show the com­ponent placement and top and bottom layout. The decoupling capacitors are located as close to the CS4382 as possible. Extensive use of ground plane fill in the evaluation board yields large reductions in radiated noise.

6. CONTROL PORT SOFTWARE

The CDB4382 is shipped with Windows 95/98/ME based software for interfacing with the CS4382 control port via the DB25 connector, J1 (Windows NT and 2000 not currently supported). The soft­ware can be used to communicate with the CS4382

in either SPIor I2C mode; however, in SPI mode the CS4382 registers are write-only.

7. DSD OPERATION

The CDB4382 supports Direct Stream Digital (DSD) operation through the header for external clocks and data, J16. The CS4382 must be placed into the DSD mode and headers J6 and J14 must be set accordingly. See Table 2 for more information.

8. ANALOG OUTPUT FILTER

The analog output filter on the CDB4382 has been designed to add flexibility when evaluating the CS4382. The output filter was designed in an op­tional two stage format, with the first optional stage being an instrumentation amplifier design and the second is a 2-pole butterworth filter.
The 2-pole filter is designed to have the in-band impedance matched between the positive and neg­ative legs. It also provides a balanced to single end­ed conversion for standard un-balanced outputs.
overall dynamic range of the system. The gain of this stage is determined from the following equa­tion:

2 R()
-----------+=

(see Figure 1) can be

adjusted to change the gain of the Instrumentation amp, and the feedback resistors on the two sides of the instrumentation amp ‘R’ must be equal.
A resistor divider has been placed before the RCA jack which brings the signal level back to 2 Vrms (selectable per channel with jumpers J21 to J28). Note: This resistor divider may introduce more dis­tortion from the second filter stage’s op-amp..
The instrumentation amplifier is optionally insert­ed by changing the FILT jumpers to position 2 (se­lectable per channel by J37 & 38, J39 & 40, etc.). This instrumentation amplifier incorporates a 5x gain (+14dB) which effectively lowers the noise
