Description
The CS4329 is a complete stereo digital-to-analog output system. In addit ion to the tr aditional D/A function, t he
CS4329 includes a digital interpolation filter followed by
an 128X oversampled delt a-sigma modulator. The modulator output controls the reference voltage input to an
ultra-linear analog low-pass filter. This architecture allows for infin ite adjustment of sample rate between 1 and
50 kHz while maintaining linear phase response simply
by changing the master clock frequency.
The CS4329 also includes an extremely flexible serial
port utilizing mode select pins to support multiple interface formats.
The master clock can be either 256, 384, or 512 times
the input sample rate, supporting various audio
environments.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The CS4329 is a com plete ste reo dig ital-t o-analo g
system including 128× digital interpolation, fourthorder delta-sigma digital-to-analog conversion,
128× oversampled one-bit delta-sigma modulator
and analog filtering. This architecture provides a
high insensitivity to clock jitter. The DAC converts
digital data at a ny input sample rat e bet w een 1 and
50 kHz, including the standa rd audio rates of 48,
44.1 and 32 kHz.
The primary purpose of using delta-sigma modula-
tion techni ques is to avo id the limi tations of lase r
trimmed resistive DAC architectures by using an
inherently linear 1-bit DAC. The advantages of a 1bit DAC include: ideal differential linearity, no distortion mechanisms due to resistor matching errors
and no linearity drift over time and temperature due
to variations in resist or va lues.
Digital Interpolation Filter
The digital interpolation filter increases the sample
rate by a factor of 4 and is followed by a 32× digital
sample-and hold to effectivel y achieve a 128× interpolation filter. This filter eliminates images of
the baseband audio s ignal w hich exi st at m ultiple s
of the input sample rate, Fs. This allows for the selection of a less complex analog filter based on outof-band noise atte nuat ion requi reme nts rath er t han
anti-image filtering. Following the interpolation
filter, the resulting frequ ency spectrum ha s i ma g e s
of the input signa l at multiples of 128× the in put
sample rate. These images are removed by the external analog filter.
Delta-Sigma Modulator
The interpola tion filter is fol lowed by a fo urth-order delta-sigm a modula tor whic h convert s the 24bit interpolation filter output into 1-bit data at
128× Fs.
Switched-Capacitor Filter
The delta-sigma modulator is followed by a digitalto-analog co nverter whi ch transl ates the 1-bi t data
into a se ries of char ge packets. T he magnitud e of
the charge in each packet is determined by sampling of a voltage reference onto a switched capacitor, where the polarity of each packet is controlled
by the 1-b it signa l. Thi s techn ique greatl y reduce s
the sensitivity to clock jitter and is a major improvement over earlier generations of 1-bit digitalto-analog converters where the magnitude of
charge in the D-to-A process is determined by
switching a curr ent reference for a period of time
defined by the mast er c loc k.
The CS4329 incorporates a differential output to
maximize the output level to minimize the amount
of gain required in the output analog stage. The differential outp ut also allows for the can cellation of
common mode errors in the di fferential to si ngledended conve rter.

SYSTEM DESIGN
Master Clock
The Maste r Clock, MCLK, is us ed to operate the
digital interpolation filter and the delta-sigma mod-
ulator. MCLK must be either 256×, 384 × or 512×
the desired Input Sample Rate, Fs. Fs is the frequency at which digital audio samples for each
channel a re input to th e DAC and is e qual to the
LRCK frequ ency. The MCL K to LRCK freq uency
ratio is dete ct ed au toma tic ally dur ing the init ia lization seque nce by counting the number of MCLK
transitions during a single LR CK period. Internal
dividers are th en set to generate the proper clocks
for the digital filter, delta-sigma modulator and
switched-capa citor filter. LRCK must be synchronous with MCLK. Once the MCLK to LRCK frequency ratio has been detected, the phase and
frequency relationship between the two clocks
must remain fix ed. If during any LRCK th is relationship is changed, the CS4329 will reset. Table 1
illustrate s the stand ard audio sam ple rates and the
required MCLK frequencies.

Formats 0, 1 and 2 are shown in Figure 3. The audio
data is right-justified, LSB aligned with the trailing
edge of LRCK, and latched into the serial input
data buffer on the rising edge of SCLK. Formats 0,
1 and 2 are 16, 18 and 20-b it versions and differ
only in the number of data bits required.
Formats 3 and 4 are 20-bit left justified, MSB
aligned with the leading edge of LRCK, and are
identical with the exception of the SCLK edge used
to latch data . Data is latc hed on t he fa lli ng edge of
SCLK in Format 3 a nd the rising edge of SCLK in
Format 4. Both form ats will suppo rt 16 an d 18-bit
inputs if the data is followed by four or two zeros to
simulate a 20-bit input as shown in Figures 4 and 5.
A very small of fset will result if th e 18 or 16-bit
data is follow ed by stat ic non-zero data.

Formats 5 and 6 are compatible with the I
S serial
data protocol and are shown in Figures 6 and 7. Notice that the MSB is delayed 1 period of SCLK following the leading edge of LRCK and LRCK is
inverted compared to the pre vious formats. Data is
latched on the rising edge of SCLK. Format 5 is 16-
2
S while Format 6 is 20-bit I2S. 18-bit I2S can
bit I
be implemented in Format 6 if the data is followed
by two zeros to simulate a 20-bit inpu t as shown in
Figure 7. A very small offset will result if the 18-bit
data is follow ed by stat ic non-zero data.
Serial Data Interface
The Seri al Data interfac e is accomplis hed via the
serial data input, SDATA, serial data clock, SCLK,
and the left/r ight clock, LRCK . The CS4329 supports seven seri al data formats wh ich are select ed
via the digital input format pins DIF0, DIF1 and
DIF2. The different formats control the relationship of LRCK to the serial data and the edge of
SCLK used t o latch t he data into th e input b uffer.
Table 2 lists the seven formats, along with the associated fi gu re numb er. The s er ial dat a is re pres en ted

CS4329
Serial Clock
The serial clo ck controls the shi fting of data into
the input dat a buffers. The CS4329 su pports both
external and internal serial clock generation modes.
External Serial Clock
The CS4329 will enter the external serial clock
mode if 15 or more high\low transitions are detected on the SCLK pin during any phase of the LRCK
period. When this mode is enabled, internal serial
clock mode can not be accessed without ret urning
to the power down mode.
Internal Serial Clock
In the Internal Serial Cl ock Mode, the seria l clock
is internally derived and synchronous with MCLK.
The interna l SCLK / LRCK ratio is al ways 64 and
operation in this mode is identical to operation with
an external serial clock synchron ized with L RCK.
The SCLK pin must be connected to DGND for
proper operation.
De-Emphasis
Implementation of digital de-emphasis requires reconfigu ration of th e digital f ilter to main tain the fi lter response sh own in Figure 8 at m ultipl e samp le
rates. The CS4 329 is capa ble of di gital de-e mphasis for 32, 44.1 or 48kHz sample rates. Table 3
shows the de-emphasis con trol inputs for DEM 0
and DEM 1.

The inte rnal serial clock mode is advant ageous in
that there are situations where improper serial
clock routin g on the printe d circuit board can degrade system pe rforma nce. The use of th e intern al
serial clock mode simplifies the routing of the
printed circ uit board by allowing the serial clock
trace to be deleted and avoids possible interference
effects.
Mute Functions
The CS4329 includes an auto-mute function which
will initiate a mute if 8192 consecutive 0’s or 1’s are
input on both the Left and Right channels. The
mute will be released when non-st at ic input data is
applied to the DAC. The auto-mute function is useful for applicat ions, such as com pact disk playe rs,
where the idle channel noise must be minimized.
This feature is active only if the AUTO_MUTE
is low and is independent of the status of MUTE_L
and MUTE_R. Either channel can also be muted
instantaneou sly with the MUTE_L or MUT E _R.

Initialization, Calibration and Power-Down
Upon initia l power -up, the DA C en te rs the po wer down mode. The interpolation filters and delta-sigma modulat ors are reset, and the in ternal voltage
reference, one-bit D/A converters and switched-capacitor low-pass filters are powered down. The device will remain in the power-down mode until
MCLK and LR CK are pres en te d. Once MCLK and
LRCK are detected, MCLK occurrences are counted over one LRCK period to determine the
MCLK/LRCK fre qu ency rati o. The ph ase and fre quency rela tionship between the two clocks m ust
remain fixed. If during any LRCK this relationship
DS153F111
CS4329
is changed, the CS4390 will reset. Power is applied
to the internal voltage ref erence, the D/A co nverters, switched-capacitor filters and the DAC will
then enter a calibration mode to properly set the
common m ode bia s volt age and minimi ze the differential offset. This initialization and calibration
sequence requires approximately 2700 cycles of
LRCK.
A offset cali bration c an also b e invok ed by taking
the Format select pins, DIF0, DIF1 and DIF2, to a
logic 1 as shown in Table 2. During calibration, the
differential outputs are shorted together and the
common-m ode voltage a ppears at the ou tput with
approxima tely an 8 kohm ou tput impedance . Following calibration, the analog output impedance
becomes less than 10 ohms and the common mode
voltage will move to approximat el y 2. 2 V .
The CS4329 will enter the power-down mode,
within 1 period of LRCK, if either MCLK or
LRCK is removed. The initialization sequence, as
described above , occurs when MCLK and LRCK
are restored.
Combined Digital and Analog Filter
Response
The frequency response of the combined analog
switched-capacitor and digital filters is shown in
Figures 9, 10 and 11. The overall response is clock
dependent an d will sca le wit h Fs. Note t hat the response plots have been normalized to Fs and can be
de-normaliz ed by multiplyin g the X-axis scale b y
Fs, such as 48 kHz.
Analog Output and Filtering
The analog output should be operated in a differential mode which allows for the cancellation of common mode errors including noise, distortion and
offset voltage. E ac h output will prod uc e a nominal
2.83 Vpp (1 Vrms) output for a full scale digital input which equa te s to a 5. 66 Vpp (2Vrms) differen tial signal as shown in Figure 12.

Figure 1 shows the recom mended power arrange ments with VA connected to a clean +5volt supply.
VD should be derived from VA through a 10 Ω resistor. VD should not be used to powe r additional
digital circui try. All mode pins whi ch require VD
should be co nnected to pin 6 of the C S4329. All
mode pins which require DGND should be connected to pin 5 of the CS4329. Pins 4 and 5, AGND
and DGND, should be connected together at the
CS4329. DGND for the CS4329 should not be confused with the ground for the d igita l sec tion of the
system. The CS4329 should be positioned over the
analog ground plane near the digital/analog ground
plane spli t. The analog and digi tal ground planes
must be connected elsewhere in the system. The
CS4329 evaluation board, CDB4329, demonstrates
this layout technique. This technique minimizes
digital noise and insures proper power supply
matching and sequencing. Decoupling capacitors
should be lo cated as nea r to the CS432 9 as possible.
Performance Plots
The follow ing collect ion of CS4329 measure ment
plots were taken from the CDB4329 evaluation
board using the Audio Precision Dual Domain System Two.
Figure 14 shows the frequency response at a
48 kHz sample ra te. The respo nse i s fl at to 20 kHz
+/-0.1 dB as spec i f ie d.
Figure 15 shows THD+ N versus signal amplit ude
for a 1 kHz 20-bit dithered input signal. Notice that
the there is no increase in disto rtion as the signal
level decreases. This indicates very good low-level
linearity, one of the key benefits of delta-sigma
digital to ana log convers ion.

Grounding and Power Supply Decoupling

PARAMETER DEFINITIONS
Dynamic Range
The ratio of the full scale rms value of the signal to the rms sum of all other spectral
components over the specified bandwidth. Dynamic range is a signal-to-noise measurement
over the specifi ed bandwidth made with a -60 dBFS signal. 60 dB is then added to the resulting
measurement to refer the measurement to full scale. This tech nique ensures that the distortio n
components are below the noise level and do not effect the measurement. This measurement
technique has been accepted by the Audio Engineering Society, AES17-1991, and the
Electronic Industries Asso ciation of Japan, EIAJ CP- 307.

Description
The CDB4329/90 evaluation board is an excellent
means for quickly evaluating the CS4329 or CS4390 24bit, stereo D/A converter. Evaluation requires an analog
signal analyzer, a digital signal source and a power supply. Analog outputs are provided via RCA connectors for
both channels.
The CS8412 digital audio receiver I.C. provides the system timing necessary to operate the CS4329/90 and will
accept AES/EBU, S/PDIF, and EIAJ-340 compatible
audio data. The evaluation board may also be configured to accept external timing signals for operation in a
user application during system development.

CDB4329 CDB4390
CDB4329/90 SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The CDB4329/90 evaluation board is an excellent
means of quickly evaluating the CS4329/90. The
CS8412 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 clocks and data through a 10-pin header for
system development.
The CDB4329/90 schematic has been partitioned
into 8 schematics shown in Figures 2 through 9.
Each partitioned schematic is represented in the
system diagram shown in Figure 1. Notice that the
system diagram also includes the interconnections
between the partitioned schematics.
CS4329/90 Digital to Analog Converter
A description of the CS4329 or CS4390 is included
in the CS4329 and CS4390 data sheets.
CS8412 Digital Audio Receiver
The system receives and decodes the standard
S/PDIF data format using a CS8412 Digital Audio
Receiver, Figure 9. The outputs of the CS8412 include a serial bit clock, serial data, left-right clock
(FSYNC), de-emphasis control and a 256Fs master
clock.
During normal operation, the CS8412 operates in
the Channel Status mode where the LED ’s display
channel status information for the channel selected
by the CSLR/FCK jumper. This allows the CS8412
to decode and supply the de-emphasis bit from the
digital audio interface for control of the CS4329/90
de-emphasis filter via pin3, CC/F0, of the CS8412.
When the Error Information Switch is activated,
the CS8412 operates in the Error and Frequency information mode. The information displayed by the
LED’s can be decoded by consulting the CS8412
data sheet. If the Error Information Switch is activated, the CC/F0 output has no relation to the deemphasis bit and it is likely that the de-emphasis
control for the CS4329/90 will be erroneous and
produce an incorrect audio output.
Encoded sample frequency information can be displayed provided a proper clock is being applied to
the FCK pin of the CS8412. When an LED is lit,
this indicates a "1" on the corresponding pin located on the CS8412. When an LED is off, this indicates a "0" on the corresponding pin. Neither the L
or R option of CSLR/FCK should be selected if the
FCK pin is being driven by a clock signal.
The evaluation board has been designed such that
the input can be either optical or coax, Figure 8. It
is not necessary to select the active input. However,
both inputs can not be driven simult aneously.
Data Format
The CS4329/90 must be configured to be compatible with the incoming data and can be set with
DIF0, DIF1, and DIF2. The CS8412 data format
can be set with the M0, M1, M2 and M3. There are
several data formats which the CS8412 can produce that are compatible with CS4329/90. Refer to
Table 2 for one possibility.
Power Supply Circuitry
Power is supplied to the evaluation board by four
binding posts, Figure 10. The +5 Volt input supplies power to the CS4329/90 (through VA+), the
CS8412 (through VA+ and VD+), a nd t he +5 Volt
digital circuitry (through VD+). The ±12 volt input
supplies power to the analog filter circuitry.
Input/Output for Clocks and Data
The evaluation board has been designed to allow
the interface to external systems via the 10-pin
header, J1. This header allows the evaluation board
to accept externally generated clocks and data. The
schematic for the clock/data I/O is shown in Figure
7. The 74HC243 transceiver functions as an I/O
buffer where the CLK SOURCE jumper determines if the transceiver operates as a transmitter or
receiver.
22 DS153DB3
CDB4329 CDB4390
The transceiver operates as a trans mitter with the
CLK SOURCE jumper in the 8412 position.
LRCK, SDATA, and SCLK from the CS8412 will
be available on J1. J22 must be in the 0 position and
J23 must be in the 1 position for MCLK to be an
output and to avoid bus contention on MCLK.
The transceiver operates as a receiver with the CLK
SOURCE jumper in the EXTERNAL position.
LRCK, SDATA and SCLK on J1 be come inputs.
The CS8412 must be removed from the evaluation
board for operation in this mode.
There are 2 options for the source of MCLK in the
EXT CLK source mode. MCLK can be an input
with J23 in the 1 position and J22 in the 0 position.
However, the recommended mode of operation is
to generate MCLK on the evaluation board. MCLK
becomes an output with LRCK, SCLK and SDATA inputs. This technique insures that the
CS4329/90 receives a jitter free clock to maximize
performance. This c an be accom plished by install ing a crystal oscillator into U4, see Figure 9 (the
socket for U4 is located within the footprint for the
CS8412) and placing J22 in t he 1 position a nd J23
in the 0 position.
Analog Filter
The design of the second-order Butterworth lowpass filter, Figure 6, is discussed in the CS4329 and
CS4390 data sheets and the applications note "Design Notes for a 2-pole Filter with Differential Input."
Grounding and Power Supply Decoupling
The CS4329/90 requires careful attention to power
supply and grounding arrangements to optimize
performance. The recommended power arrangements would be VA+ connected to a clean +5 Volt
supply. The voltage VD+ (pin 6 of the CS4329/90)
should be derived from VA+ through a 2 ohm resistor and should not used for any additional digital
circuitry. Ideally, mode pins which require this
voltage should be connected directly to VD+ (pin 6
of the CS4329/90) and mode pins which require
DGND should be connected directly to pin 5 of the
CS4329/90. AGND and DGND, Pins 4 and 5, are
connected together at the CS4329/90. However, it
was not possible to connect VD+ (pin 6 of the
CS4329/90) and DGND to the mode pins on the
CDB4329/90 due to layout complications resulting
from the hardware selected to exercise the features
of the CS4329/90.
Figure 2 shows the CS4329/90 and connections.
The evaluation board has separate analog and digital regions with individual ground planes. DGND
for the CS4329/90 should not be confused with the
ground for the digital section of the system (GND).
The CS4329/90 is positioned over the analog
ground plane near the digital/analog ground plane
split. These ground planes are connected elsewhere
on the board. This layout technique is used to minimize digital noise and to insure proper power supply matching/sequencing. The decoupling
capacitors are located as close to the CS4329/90 as
possible. Extensive use of ground plane fill on both
the analog and digital sections of the evaluation
board yield large reductions in radiated noise effects.
