The AIC111 IC design specification serves to provide
product development teams with a guideline for how the
AIC1 11 IC is specified and programmable options that are
available. The document outlines a top-level block
description of the IC along with system specifications and
functions. Individual block descriptions and target
specifications are also outlined.
The Texas Instruments AIC111 is a TI µPower DSP
compatible, or microcontroller compatible audio codec
product, or analog interface circuit. The AIC111 is part of
a comprehensive family of DSP/µC based highperformance analog interface solutions. The AIC111 is
targeted primarily at personal medical devices, such as
hearing instruments, aural preprocessing applications,
and low-power headset applications. The AIC111 is used
in any design requiring a programmable time constant
PGA/compressor interface, high dynamic range
analog-to-digital converter, an external DSP/µC
handling signal processing, or a low distortion
digital-to-analog converter with a balanced H-Bridge
speaker driver. It supports a CMOS digital interface
tailored for TI DSPs with the McBSP protocol such as
TMS320VC54x DSP family and SPI-based controllers
such as TI MSP430x family of microcontrollers. The
AIC111 also has an external microphone or sensor supply
and bias and power supply up low-battery monitor
indicator.
semiconductor products and disclaimers thereto appears at the end of this data sheet.
These devices have limited built-in ESD protection. The leads should be shorted together or the device placed in conductive foam during
storage or handling to prevent electrostatic damage to the MOS gates.

Analog-to-Digital Converter Filtered Input Voltage Reference
Function – Filters analog supply AVDD for DS-ADC reference. With a recommended 0.1-µF external capacitor
between pins VRFILT and AVSS_REF, the pole is set at approximately 72 Hz, with 1 µF, the pole is set at
approximately 7 Hz.
Programmable Gain Amplifier and Compressor
Function: The programmable gain amplifier and compressor (PGAC) amplifies the microphone or sensor output
signal, provides an appropriate impedance to the microphone buffer or sensor , and provides input gain compression
limiting depending on the input signal level if one is not using the fixed gain mode, where the PGAC gain is set by
selected register bits. Input compression limiting is discrete automatic gain correction (AGC) based on detecting the
peak input signal level using a peak detector circuit that has programmable time responses to provide AGC control,
and is intended to prevent a steady state input level up to the defined PGAC limit from being clipped. The
attack/release times of the PGAC are programmable by internal clock selection inside the PGAC digital level circuitry
that affects the rate of gain changes.
The PGAC has four modes of operation: automatic dual-rate (default), automatic single-rate, fixed single-rate, and
fixed immediate. Mode selection is controlled by bits 3 and 2 of the PDCREG register.
Automatic dual-rate mode (00, default):
In this mode of operation, the PGAC has two attack (gain decrease) rates and two release (gain increase) rates, which
may be selected by programming the FASTARREG and FORMAT4 registers. Internally, two counters are used to
control the compressor gain. The fast rate counter responds at the fast attack and release rates, and it counts down
at the attack rate to decrease the PGAC gain if the output of the PGAC is instantaneously larger than a preset
threshold (PGAC_THRES = 400-mV peak), or it counts up to increase the gain, up to the maximum allowed gain
as set by the PGACREG register, if the output of the PGAC falls below a second threshold, which is 3 dB lower
(283-mV peak), which provides hysteresis. Before the gain is allowed to increase, the signal at the output of the
PGAC must be below the lower threshold for a period of time which is controlled by bit 4 of PDCREG, and can be
50 ms (0, default) or 25 ms (1). The slow-rate counter responds at the slow attack and release rates, and it attempts
to track the state of the fast rate counter. The PGAC gain is determined by whichever counter is smaller. In this way,
the PGAC can respond and recover rapidly to short signal bursts while responding more slowly to the signal average.
Automatic single-rate mode (01):
In this mode of operation, the PGAC has one attack rate and one release rate, which may be selected by
programming the FASTARREG register. The operation of the PGAC is similar to the dual-rate mode, except that
the slow-rate counter is disabled and the PGAC gain is solely determined by the fast-rate counter.
Fixed single-rate mode (10):
In this mode of operation, the PGAC gain tracks the value specified in the PGACREG register regardless of the signal
amplitude, and changes in PGACREG cause the gain to decrease or increase at the corresponding fast attack or
release rate specified in the FASTARREG register.
Fixed immediate mode (11):
In this mode of operation, the PGAC gain tracks the value specified in the PGACREG register regardless of the signal
amplitude, and changes in PGACREG cause the gain to change immediately to the desired gain without stepping
through the intermediate gain states.
Bit 7 of the PGACREG register controls the PGAC gain read mode. While this bit is low (default), reading PGACREG
returns the contents of PGACREG. However, if this bit is set high, then any subsequent read(s) of PGACREG returns
the actual, instantaneous PGAC gain. This information may be useful, for example, for dynamic range expansion,
effectively undoing the compression effect in the automatic modes of operation.
Characteristics: Compression limits the PCAG output. PGACREG is a programmable register.
