General Description
The CS4270 is a high-performance, integrated audio
CODEC. The CS4270 perfor ms stereo analog- to-digital
(A/D) and digital-to-analog (D/A) conversion of up to
24-bit serial values at sample rates up to 216 kHz.
Standard 50/15 µs de-emphasis is available for sam-
pling rates of 44.1 kHz for compatibility with digital audio
programs mastered using the 50/15 µs pre-emphasis
technique.
Integrated level translators allow easy interfacing be-
tween the CS4270 and other devices operating over a
wide range of logic levels.
Independently addressable high-pass filters are avail-
able for the right and left channe l of the A/D. This allows
the A/D to be used in a wide variety of applications
where one audio channel and one DC measurement
channel is desired.
The CS4270 is availa ble in a 24-pin TSSOP p ackage in
both Commercial (-10° to +70° C) and Automotive
grades (-40° to +85° C). The CDB4270 Custo mer Dem-
onstration board is also available for device evaluation
and implementation sugg estions. Please refer to
“Ordering Information” on page 47 for complete order-
ing information.
The CS4270’s wide dynamic range, negligible distor-
tion, and low noise make it ideal for applications such as
DVD-recorders, digital televisions, set-top boxes, ef-
fects processors, and automotive audio systems.

5. APPLICATIONS
5.1 Stand-Alone Mode
5.1.1 Recommended Power-Up Sequence
Reliable power- up can be accomplished by keeping th e device in reset until the power supplies, clocks
and configuration pins are stable. It is also recommended that reset be enabled if the analog or digital
supplies drop below the minimum specified operating voltages to prevent power glitch related issues.
5.1.2 Master/Slave Mode
The CS4270 supports operation in either Master Mode or Slave Mode.
In Master Mode, LRCK and SCLK are outputs and are synchronously generated on- chip. LRCK is equal
to Fs and SCLK is equal to 64x Fs.
In Slave Mode, LRCK and SCLK are inputs, requiring external generation that is synchronous to MCLK.
It is recommended that SCLK be 48x or 64x Fs to maximize system performance.
In Stand-Alone Mode, the CS4270 will enter Slave Mode when SDOUT (M/S) is pulled low through a
47 kresistor. Master Mode may be accessed by placing a 47 k pull-u p to VD on the SDOUT (M/S) pin.
Configuration of clock ratios in each of these modes is outlined in Table 2.
5.1.3 System Clocking
The CS4270 will operate at sampling frequencies from 4 kHz to 216 kHz. This range is divided into three
speed modes as shown in Table 1
.
Mode Sampling Frequency
Single-Speed 4-54 kHz
Double-Speed 50-108 kHz
Quad-Speed 100-216 kHz
Table 1. Speed Modes
DS686PP1 23
CS4270
5.1.4 Clock Ratio Selection
Depending on whether the CS4270 is in Master or Slave Mode, different MCLK/LRCK and SCLK/LRCK
ratios may be used. These ratios are shown in the Table 2.
5.1.5 Interpolation Filter
In Stand-Alone Mode, the fast ro ll-off interpol ation filter is used. Filter specificatio ns can be found in Sec-
tion 4. Plots of the data are contained in Section 9. “Filter Plots” on page 41.
5.1.6 High-Pass Filter
The opera tional amplifiers in the input circ uitry driving the CS4270 may generate a small DC offset into
the ADC. The CS4270 includes a hig h-pass filter after the decimator to remove any DC offset which could
result in recording a DC level, possibly yielding "clicks" when switching between devices in a multichannel
system. In Stand-Alone Mode, the high-pass filter continuously subtracts a measu re of the DC offset from
the output of the decimation filter This function cannot be disabled in Stand-Alone Mode.

5.1.7 Mode Selection & De-Emphasis
The sample rate, Fs, can be adjusted from 4 kHz to 216 kHz and De-emphasis, optimized for 44.1 kHz,
is available in Single-Speed Mode. In Stand-Alone Master Mode, the CS4270 must be set to the proper
mode via the mode pins, M1 and M0. In Slave Mode, the CS4270 auto-detects Speed Mode and the M0
pin becomes De-emph asis select. Stand-alone definitions of the mode pins are shown in Table 3.
5.1.8 Serial Audio Interface Format Selection
Either I²S or Left-Justified serial audio data format may be selected in Stand-Alone Mode. The selection
will affect both the input and output format. Placing a 10 k pull-up to VD on the I²S/LJ pin will select the
I²S format, while placing a 10 k pull-down to DGND on the I²S/LJ pin will select the Left-Justified format.
5.2 Control Port Mode
5.2.1 Recommended Power-Up Sequence - Access to Control Port Mode
1. Pull RST low until the power supply, MCLK, and LRCK are stable.
2. Release RST. The Control Port will be accessible.
3. Set the power down bit (register 0x02h, bit 0) to “1” for 1 ms minimum within 10 ms after releasing
RST and then set to “0” prior to reading or writing to other registers.
4. Initiate a SPI or I²C transaction as described in Section 6.1 or Section 6.2, respectively.
5.2.2 Master / Slave Mode Selection
The CS4270 suppor ts operation in either Master Mode or Slave Mode.
In Master Mode, LRCK and SCLK are outputs and are synchronously generated on- chip. LRCK is equal
to Fs and SCLK is equal to 64x Fs.
In Slave Mode, LRCK and SCLK are inputs, requiring external generation that is synchronous to MCLK.
It is recommended that SCLK be 48x or 64x Fs to maximize system performance.
Configuration of clock ratios in each of these modes will be outlined in the Table 10 and Table 9.
In Control Port Mode the CS4270 will default to Slave Mode. The user may change this default setting by
changing the status of the M/S bits in the Functional Control Register (03h).
Mode 1 Mode 0 Mode Sample Rate (Fs) De-Emphasis
0 0 Single-Speed Mode 4 kHz - 54 kHz Off
0 1 Single-Speed Mode 4 kHz - 54 kHz 44.1 kHz
1 0 Double-Speed Mode 50 kHz - 108 kHz Of f

5.2.3 System Clocking
The CS4270 will operate at sampling frequencies from 4 kHz to 216 kHz. This range is divided into three
speed modes as sh own in Table 4.
5.2.4 Clock Ratio Selection
In Control Port Master Mode, the user must configure the mode bits (MCLK Freq<2:0>) to set the speed
mode and select the appropriate clock ratios. Depending on whether the CS4270 is in Master or Slave
Mode, different MCLK/LRCK and SCLK/LRCK ratios may be used. These ratios as well as the Control
Port Register Bits are shown in Table 5, Table 9 and Section 8.3 on page 36.

CS4270
5.2.5 Internal Digital Loopback
In Control Port Mode, the CS4270 supports an internal digital loopback mode in which the output of the
ADC is routed to the input of the DAC. This mode may be activated by setting the Digital Loopback bit in
the ADC & DAC Ctrl register (04h).
When this bit is set, the status of the DAC_DIF(4:3) bits in register 04h will be disregarded by the CS4270.
Any changes made to the DAC_DIF(4:3) bits while the Digital Loopbac k bit is set will have no impact on
operation until the Dig ital Loopback bit is released, at which time the Digital Interface Format of the DAC
will operate according to the format selected in the DAC _DIF(4:3) bits. While the Digital Loopback bit is
set, data will be present on the SDOUT pin in the format selected in the ADC_DIF(0) bit in register 04h.
5.2.6 Auto-Mute
The Auto-Mute function is contro lled by the status of the Au to Mute bi t in the Mute r egister. When set, the
DAC output will mute following the reception of 8192 consecutive audi o sample s of static 0 or -1 . A single
sample of non-static data will release the mute. Detection and muting are done independently for each
channel. The common mode on the output will be retained and the Mute Control pin for that channel will
become active during the mute period. The m uting function is affected, similar to volume control changes,
by the Soft and ZeroCross bits in the Transition and Control register. The Auto Mute bit is set by default.
5.2.7 High-Pass Filter and DC Offset Calibration
The input circuitry driving the CS4270 may generate a small DC offset into the A/D converter. The CS4270
includes a high-pass filter after the decimator to remove any DC offset which could result in rec ording a
DC level, possibly yielding "clicks" when switching between devices in a multichannel system.
The high-pass filter continuously subtracts a measure of the DC offset from the output of the decimation
filter. The high-pass filter can be enabled if the hpf_freeze bit is set during normal operation, the current
value of the DC offset for the corresponding channel is frozen and this DC offset will continue to be sub-
tracted from the conversion result. This feature makes it possible to perform a system DC offset calibration
by:
1. Running the CS4270 with the high-pass filter enabled until the filter settles. See the Digital Filter
Characteristics for filter settling time.
2. Disabling the high-pass filter and freezing the stored DC offset.
A system calibration performed in this way will eliminate offsets anywhere in the signal path between the
calibration point an d th e CS4 27 0.

5.2.8 De-Emphasis
One de-emphasis mode is available via the Control Port and is optimized for 44.1 kHz sampling rate.
5.2.9 Oversampling Modes
The CS4270 operates in one of three oversampling modes based on the input samp le rate. Mode selec-
tion is determined by the FM_&_M/S_Mode[1:0] bits in the Functional Mode register (03h). Single-Speed
Mode supports input sample rates up to 54 kHz and uses a 128x oversampling ratio. Double-Speed Mode
supports input sample rates up to 108 kHz and uses an oversampling ratio of 64x. Quad-Speed Mode
supports input sample rate s up to 216 kHz and uses an oversampling ratio of 32x. See Table 10 for Con-
trol Port Mode settings.
5.3 De-Emphasis Filter
The CS4270 includes on-chip digital de-emphasis. Figure 14 shows the de - em p ha sis cu rve for Fs equal
to 44.1 kHz. The frequency response of the de-emphasis curv e will scale proportionally with changes in
sample rate, Fs. Plea se see Section 5.1.7 for the desired de-e mphasis control for Stand-Alo ne Mode and
Section 5.2.8 for Control Port Mod e.
The de-emphasis feature is included to accommodate audio recordings that utilize 50/15 µs pre-emphasis
equalization as a means of noise reduction.
De-emphasis is only available in Single-Speed Mode.

5.4 Analog Connections
5.4.1 Input Connections
The analog modulator samples the input at 6.144 MHz.The digital filter will reject signals within the stop-
band of the filter. However, there is no rejection for input signals which are multiples of the input sampling
frequency (n ×6.144 MHz), where n=0,1,2,... Refer to Figure 15 which shows the recommended topology
of the analog input network. The capacitor values chosen not only provide the appropriate filtering of noise
at the mo dulator sampling f requency, but also act as a charge source for the internal sampling circuits.
The use of capacitor s which have a large vo ltage coefficient (such as general purpose ceramics) must be
avoided since these ca n degrade signal linearity.
Three paramete rs determine the values of resistors R1 and R2 as shown in Figure 15 source impedance,
attenuation, and input impedance. Table 6 shows the design equat ion use d to de te rm in e th ese values.
Source Impedance: Source impedance is defined as the impeda nce as seen from the ADC lo oking back
into the signal netwo rk. The ADC achieves optimal THD+N per formance when source imped ance is min-
imized and THD+N degrades for source impedance greater than 1 k. See Figure 16 and 17 below.

CS4270
Attenuation: The required attenuation factor depends on th e magnitude of the input signal. For
VA = 5 V, the full-scale input voltage equals 1 Vrms. The full-scale input voltage scales with VA as indi-
cated on pages 13 and 14. The user should select values for R1 and R2 such that the magnitude of the
incoming signal multiplied by the attenuation factor is less than or equal to the full-scale input voltage of
the device.
Input Impedance: Input impedance is the impedance from the signal source to the ADC analog input
pins. Table 6 shows the input parameters and the associated design equations.
Figure 18 illustrates an example configuration using two 2 kresistors in place of R1 and R2. This circuit
will attenuate a typical line level voltage, 2 Vrms, to the full-scale input of the ADC, 1 Vrms when VA = 5
V and is the maximum source impedance for the ADC specifications listed in this Data Sheet.

5.4.2 Output Connections
The analog output filter presen t in the CS4270 is a switched-capacitor filter fo llowed by a continuous time
low pass filter. Its response, combined with that of the digital interpolator, is given in Figures 24 - 47. The
recommended external analog circuitry is shown in Figure 19.
5.5 Mute Control
The Mute Control pins become active during power-up initialization, reset, muting, when the MCLK to
LRCK ratio is incorrect, and during power-down. The MUTE pins are intended to be used as control for
an external mute circuit in order to add off-chip mute capability.
The CS4270 also features Auto-Mute, which is enabled by default. The Auto-Mute function causes the
MUTE pin correspondin g to an individua l ch annel to activate following the recep tion of 8192 conse cutive
static-level audio samples on the respective channel. A single transition of data on the channel will cause
the corresponding MUTE pin to deactivate.
Use of the Mute Control function is not mandatory but recommended for designs requiring the absolute
minimum in extraneous clicks and pops. Also, use of the Mute Control function can enable the system
designer to achieve idle channel noise/signal-to-noise ratios which are only limited by the external mute
circuit. The MUTE pins are active-low. Se e Figure 20 for a suggested active-low mute circuit.

5.6 Synchronization of Multiple Devices
In systems where multip le ADCs are requ ired, care must be taken to achi eve simultaneou s sampling. To
ensure synchronous sam pling, the MCLK and LRCK mu st be the same for a ll of the CS427 0’s in the sys-
tem. If only one MCLK source is needed , one solution is to place one CS4270 in M aster Mode, a nd slave
all of the other CS4270’s to the one master. If multiple MCLK sources are needed, a possible solution
would be to supply all clocks from the same external source and time the CS4270 reset with the inactive
edge of MCLK. This will ensure that all converters begin sampling on the same clock edge.
5.7 Grounding and Power Supply Decoupling
As with any high resolution co nverter, the CS4270 requires careful attention to power sup ply and ground-
ing arrangements if its potential performance is to be realized. Figure 1 shows the recommended power
arrangements, with VA and VD connected to clean supplies. VD, which powers the digital filter, may be
run from the system digital supply (VD) o r may b e po were d fro m the an alo g supply ( VA) via a r esistor. In
this case, no additional devices sho uld be powered fr om VD. Power supply decouplin g capacitors should
be as near to the CS4270 as possible, with the low value ceramic capacitor being the nearest. All signals,
especially clocks, should be kept away from the VREF and VCOM pins in order to avoid unwanted cou-
pling into the modulators. The VREF and VCOM decoupling capacitors, particularly the 0.1 µF, must be
positioned to minimize the electrical path from VREF and AGND. The CDB4270 evaluation board dem-
onstrates the optimum layout and power supply arrangements. To minimize digital noise, connect the
CS4270 digital outputs only to CMOS inputs.

6. CONTROL PORT INTERFACE
The Control Port is used to load all the internal settings of the CS4270. The operation of the Control Port may be
completely asynchronou s to the a udio sa mple rate. However, to avoid potential interference problems, the Control
Port pins should remain static if no operation is required.
The Control Port has 2 modes: SPI and I²C, with the CS4270 operating as a slave to control messages in both
modes. If I²C operation is desired, AD0/CS should be tied to VLC or DGND. If the CS4270 ever detects a high to
low transition on AD0/CS after power-up, SPI Mode will be selected.
Upon release of the RST pin, the CS4270 will wait approximately 10 ms before it begins its start-up sequence. The
part defaults to Stand-Alone Mode, in which all operational modes are controlled as described in Section 5.1 on
page 22. If the user initiates communication to the p art through the SPI o r I²C interface, the part enters Control- Port
Mode and all operational modes are controlled by the Control Port regist ers. If syst em requirements do not allow
writing to the Control Port immediately following the release of RST, the SDIN line should be held at logic “0” until
the proper serial mode can be selected.
6.1 SPI Mode
In SPI Mode, CS is the CS4270 chip select signal, CCLK is the Control Port bit clock, CDIN is the input data
line from the microcontroller and the chip address is 1001111. All control signals are inputs and data is
clocked in on the rising edge of CCLK.
Figure 21 shows the operatio n of the Control Port in SPI Mo de. To write to a register , bring CS low. The first
7 bits on CDIN form the chip address, a nd mu st be 100 111 1. The ei ghth b it is a read/write indicator (R/W ),
which must be low to write. The next 8 bits form the Memory Address Pointer (MAP), which is set to the
address of the register that is to be updated. The next 8 bits are the data which will be placed into the register
designated by the MAP. See Table 9 on page 36.
The CS4270 has MAP auto increment capability, enabled by the INCR bit in the MAP. If INCR is 0, then the
MAP will stay constant for successive writes. If INCR is set, then MAP will auto increment after each byte
is written, allowing block writes to successive registers.

6.2 I²C® Mode
In I²C Mode, SDA is a bi-directiona l data line. Data is cl ocked into and out of the p art by the clock, SCL, with
the clock to data relationsh ip as shown in Figure 22. There is no CS pin. Pins AD0, AD1, and AD2 form the
partial chip address and should be tied to VLC or DGN D a s re q uir ed . T h e up pe r 4 b i ts of th e 7 -b i t ad dr es s
field must be 1001. To communicate with the CS4270, the three lower bits of the chip address field should
match the setting on the AD0, AD1, and AD2 pins. The e ighth bit of the addre ss byte is the R/W bit (high for
a read, low for a write) . The next byte is the Memory Address Pointer, MAP, which selects the register to be
read or written. If the operation is a write, the MAP is then followed by the data to be writte n. If the operation
is a read, then the contents of the register pointed to by the MAP will be output after the chip address.
The CS4270 has MAP auto increment capability, ena bled by the INCR bit in the MAP. If INCR is 0, then the
MAP will stay constant for successive writes. If INCR is set, then MAP will auto increment after each byte
is written, allowing block reads or writes of successive registers.

8.5 Transition Control - Address 05h
8.5.1 DAC Single Volume (Bit 7)
Function:
The AOUTA and AOUTB vo lume levels are independ ently controlled by the A and the B Channel Volume
Control Bytes when this function is disabled. The volume on both AOUTA and AOUTB are determined by
the A Channel Volume Control Byte (07h) and the B Channel Byte (08h) is ignored w hen this func tion is
enabled. Volume and muting functions are affected by the Soft Ramp and ZeroCross func tion s be lo w.
8.5.2 Soft Ramp or Zero Cross Enable (Bits 6:5)
Function:
Soft Ramp Enable
Soft Ramp allows level changes, both muting and attenuation, to be imp lemented by incrementa lly ramp-
ing, in 1/8 dB steps, from the current level to the new level at a rate of 1 dB per 8 left/right clock periods.
See Table 12 on page 38.
Zero Cross Enable
Zero Cross Enable dictates that signal level changes, either by attenuation changes or muting, will occur
on a signal zero crossing to minimize audible artifacts. The requested level change will occur after a time-
out period between 512 an d 1024 sample periods (10.7 ms to 21.3 ms at 48 kHz sample rate) if the signal
does not encounter a zero crossing. The zero cross function is independently monitored and implemented
for each channel. See Table 9 on page 36.
Soft Ramp and Zero Cross Enable
Soft Ramp and Zero Cross Enable dictate that signal level changes, either by attenuation changes or mut-
ing, will occur in 1/8 dB steps and be implemented on a signal zero crossing. The 1/8 dB level change will
occur after a time-out per iod betwe en 512 an d 1024 sample periods (10.7 ms to 21.3 ms at 48 kHz sam-
ple rate) if the signal does not encounter a zero crossing. The zero cross function is independently mon-
itored and implemented for each channel. See Table 9 on page 36.
8.5.3 Invert Signal Polarity (Bits 4:1)
Function:
When set, this bit activates an inversion of the signal polar ity for the ap propr iate ch annel. This is useful if
a board layout error has occurred or in other situations where a 180 degr ee phase shift is desirable.

8.5.4 De-Emphasis Control (Bit 0)
Function:
Implementation of the sta ndard 50/15 µs digital de-emphasis filter on the DAC output requires reconfigu-
ration of the digital filter to maintain the proper filter response for 44.1 kHz sample rate. Figure 23 shows
the filter response. NOTE: De-emphasis is available only in Single-Speed Mode.
8.6 Mute Control - Address 06h
8.6.1 Auto-Mute (Bit 5)
Function:
When set, enables the Auto-Mute function. Section 5.2.6 “Auto-Mute” on page 26.
8.6.2 ADC Channel A & B Mute (Bits 4:3)
Function:
When this bit is set, the output of the ADC for the selected channel will be muted.
8.6.3 Mute Polarity (Bit 2)
Function:
The MUTEA and MUTEB pins (pins 24 and 21) are active low by default. When this bit is set, these pins
are active high.
8.6.4 DAC Channel A & B Mute (Bits 1:0)
Function:
When this bit is set, the output of the DAC for the selected channel will be muted.

8.7 DAC Channel A Volume Control - Address 07h
Function:
See Section 8.8 DAC Channel B Volume Control - Address 08h.
8.8 DAC Channel B Volume Control - Address 08h
Function:
The digital volume control allows the user to attenua te the signal in 0.5 dB increments from 0 to -127 dB.
The vol<0> bit activates a 0.5 dB attenuation when set, and no atte nuation when cleared. The Vol[7:1]
bits activate attenuation equal to their decimal value (in dB). Example volume settings are decoded as
shown in Table 13. The volume changes are implemented as dictated by the DACSoft and DACZero-
Cross bits in the Transition Control register (see Section 8.5.2).

10.PARAMETER DEFINITIONS
Dynamic Range
The ratio of the 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 r atio measurem ent over the spe cified ba ndwidth made with a -60 dBFS signal.
60 dB is added to resulting measurement to refer the measurement to full-scale. This technique ensures that the
distortion components are below the noise level and do not affect the measurement. This measurement technique
has been accepted by the Audio Engineering Society, AES17-1991, and the Electronic Industries Association of Ja-
pan, EIAJ CP-307. Expressed in decibels.
Total Harmonic Distortion + Noise
The ratio of the rms value of the sig nal to the rms sum of all other spectral comp onents over the specified bandwidth
(typically 10 Hz to 20 kHz), including distortion components. Expressed in decibels. Measured at -1 and -20 dBFS
as suggested in AES17-1991 Annex A.
Frequency Response
A measure of the amplitude response variation from 10 Hz to 20 kHz relative to the amplitude response at 1 kHz.
Units in decibels.
Interchannel Isolation
A measure of crosstalk between the left and right channels. Measured for each channel at the converter's output
with no signal to the input under test and a full-scale signal applied to the other channel. Units in decibels.
Interchannel Gain Mismatch
The gain difference between left and right channels. Units in decibels.
Gain Error
The deviation from the nominal full-scale analog output for a full-scale digital input.
Gain Drift
The change in gain value with temperature. Units in ppm/°C.
Offset Error
The deviation of the mid-scale transition (111...111 to 000...000) from the ideal. Units in mV.
