Notes
1. Ratio of output level with 1kHz full scale input, to the output level with all zero’s into the digital input over a 20Hz to
20kHz bandwidth using an Audio analyser.
2. All performance measurements done with 20kHz low pass filter, and where noted an A-weight filter. Failure to use such
a filter will result in higher THD+N and lower SNR and Dynamic Range readings than are found in the Electrical
Characteristics. The low pass filter removes out of band noise; although it is not audible it may affect dynamic
specification values.
3. VMID decoupled with 10uF and 0.1uF capacitors (smaller values may result in reduced performance).
TERMINOLOGY
1. Signal-to-noise ratio (dB) - SNR is a measure of the difference in level between the full scale output and the output with
a zero signal applied. (No ‘Auto-zero’ or Automute function is employed in achieving these results).
2. Dynamic range (dB) - DNR is a measure of the difference between the highest and lowest portions of a signal. Normally
a THD+N measurement at 60dB below full scale. The measured signal is then corrected by adding the 60dB to it. (e.g.
THD+N @ -60dB= -32dB, DR= 92dB).
3. THD+N (dB) - THD+N is a ratio, of the r.m.s. values, of (Noise + Distortion)/Signal.
4. Channel Separation (dB) - Also known as Cross-Talk. This is a measure of the amount one channel is isolated from
the other. Normally measured by sending a full scale signal down one channel and measuring the other.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION
The WM8739 is a low power analogue to digital converter (ADC) designed for audio recording. Its
features, performance and low power consumption make it ideal for recordable CD players, MP3
players and portable mini-disc players.
The device includes programmable level line inputs, a crystal oscillator, configurable digital audio
interface and a choice of 2 or 3 wire MPU control interface. It is fully compatible and an ideal partner
for a range of industry standard microprocessors, controllers and DSPs.
The WM8739 has low noise line inputs with programmable +12dB to –34.5dB logarithmic volume
adjustments and mute.
The ADC is of a high quality using a multi-bit high-order oversampling architecture delivering
optimum performance with low power consumption. The output from the ADC is available on the
digital audio interface. The ADC includes a digital high pass filter to remove unwanted dc
components from the audio signal.
The design of the WM8739 has given much attention to power consumption without compromising
performance. It includes the ability to power off parts of the circuitry under software control, including
a standby and power off mode.
The device caters for a number of different sampling rates including industry standard 8kHz, 32kHz,
44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz and 96kHz.
There are two unique schemes featured within the programmable sample rates of the WM8739:
Normal industry standard 256/384 fs sampling mode may be used. A special USB sampling mode is
also included, whereby all audio sampling rates can be generated from a 12.00MHZ USB clock. The
WM8739’s unique sample rate converter thus allows the user to generate the required sampling rate
clocks from the 12MHz USB clock. The digital filters used for recording are optimised for each
sampling rate used.
The digitised output is available in a number of audio data formats I2S, DSP Mode (a burst mode in
which frame sync plus 2 data packed words are transmitted), MSB-First, left justified and MSB-First,
right justified. The digital audio interface can operate in both master or slave modes.
The WM8739 can generate the system master clock using an on-chip crystal oscillator, or
alternatively it can accept an external master clock from the audio system. All features are software
controlled using either a 2 or 3-wire MPU interface.
LINE INPUTS
The WM8739 provides Left and Right channel line inputs (RLINEIN and LLINEIN). The inputs are
high impedance and low capacitance, thus ideally suited to receiving line level signals from external
Hi-Fi and other audio equipment.
Both line inputs include independent programmable volume level adjustments and mutes. The
scheme is illustrated in Figure 8. Passive RF and active Anti-Alias filters are also incorporated within
the line inputs. These prevent high frequencies aliasing into the audio band or otherwise degrading
performance.

LINE INPUT SCHEMATIC
The gain between the line inputs and the ADC is logarithmically adjustable from +12dB to –34.5dB in
1.5dB steps under software control. The ADC Full Scale input is 1.0V rms at AVDD = 3.3 volts. Any
voltage greater than full scale will possibly overload the ADC and cause distortion. Note that the full
scale input tracks directly with AVDD. The gain is independently adjustable on both Right and Left
Line Inputs. However, by setting the INBOTH bit whilst programming the volume control, both
channels are simultaneously updated. Use of INBOTH reduces the required number of software
writes required. The line inputs can be muted in the analogue domain under software control. The
software control registers are shown below.

The line inputs are biased internally through the operational amplifier to VMID. Whenever the line
inputs are muted or the device placed into standby mode, the line inputs are kept biased to VMID
using special anti-thump circuitry. This reduces any audible clicks that may otherwise be heard when
re-activating the inputs.
The external components required to complete the line input application are shown in the Figure 9.

Figure 9 Line Input Application Drawing
For interfacing to a typical CD system, it is recommended that the input is scaled to ensure that there
is no clipping at the input. R1 = 5K, R2= 5K, C1=47pF, C2=470nF (10V ceramic type).
R1 and R2 form a resistive divider to attenuate the 2 Vrms output from a CD player to a 1 Vrms level,
so avoiding overloading the inputs. R2 also provides a discharge path for C2, thus preventing the
input to C2 charging to an excessive voltage which may otherwise damage any equipment connected
that is not suitably protected against high voltages. C1 forms an RF low pass filter for increasing the
rejection of RF interference picked up on any cables. C2 forms a DC blocking capacitor to remove
the DC path between the WM8739 and the driving audio equipment. C2 together with the input
impedance of the WM8739 form a high pass filter.
ADC
The WM8739 uses a multi-bit oversampled sigma-delta ADC. A single channel of the ADC is
illustrated in the Figure 10.

The ADC Full Scale input is 1.0V rms at AVDD = 3.3 volts. Any voltage greater than full scale will
possibly overload the ADC and cause distortion. Note that the full scale input tracks directly with
AVDD.
The device employs a pair of ADCs. The two channels cannot be selected independently.
The digital data from the ADC is fed for signal processing to the ADC Filters.
ADC FILTERS
The ADC filters perform true 24 bit signal processing to convert the raw multi-bit oversampled data
from the ADC to the correct sampling frequency to be output on the digital audio interface. Figure 11
illustrates the digital filter path.

ADC DIGITAL FILTER
The ADC digital filters contain a digital high pass filter, selectable via software control. The high-pass
filter response is detailed in the Digital Filter Characteristics section. When the high-pass filter is
enabled the dc offset is continuously calculated and subtracted from the input signal. By setting
HPOR the last calculated dc offset value is stored when the high-pass filter is disabled and will
continue to be subtracted from the input signal. If the dc offset changed, the stored and subtracted
value will not change unless the high-pass filter is enabled. The software control is shown in Table 2.

There are several types of ADC filter, the frequency and phase responses of which are shown in
Digital Filter Characteristics. The filter types are automatically configured depending on the sample
rate chosen. Refer to the sample rate section for more details.
CLOCKING SCHEMES
In a typical digital audio system there is only one central clock source producing a reference clock to
which all audio data processing is synchronised. This clock is often referred to as the audio system’s
Master Clock. To allow WM8739 to be used in a centrally clocked system, the WM8739 is capable of
either generating this ‘system’ clock itself or receiving it from an external source as will be discussed.
For applications where it is desirable that the WM8739 is the system clock source, then clock
generation is achieved through the use of a suitable crystal connected between the XTI/MCLK input
and XTO output pins (see CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR section).

For applications where a component other than the WM8739 will generate the reference clock, the
external system can be applied directly through the XTI/MCLK input pin with no software
configuration necessary. Note that in this situation, the oscillator circuit of the WM8739 can be safely
powered down to conserve power (see POWER DOWN section)
CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR
The WM8739 includes a crystal oscillator circuit that allows the audio system’s reference clock to be
generated on the device. The crystal oscillator is a low radiation type, designed for low EMC. A
typical application circuit is shown in Figure 12.
XTI/MCLK XTO
DGND DGND
Cp Cp
Figure 12 Crystal Oscillator Application Circuit
For crystals with a 30pF fundamental load capacitance, a value of 5pF for Cp is recommended.
The WM8739 crystal oscillator provides an extremely low jitter clock source. Low jitter clocks are a
requirement for a high quality audio ADC, regardless of the converter architecture. The WM8739
architecture is less susceptible than most converter techniques but still requires clocks with less than
approximately 1ns of jitter to maintain performance. In applications where there is more than one
source for the master clock, it is recommended that the clock is generated by the WM8739 to
minimise such problems.
CORE CLOCK
The WM8739 DSP core can be clocked either by MCLK or MCLK divided by 2. This is controlled by
software as shown in Table 3 below.

The digital audio interface takes the data from the internal ADC digital filters and places it on
ADCDAT and ADCLRC. ADCDAT is the formatted digital audio data stream output from the ADC
digital filters with left and right channels multiplexed together. ADCLRC is an alignment clock that
controls whether Left or Right channel data is present on the ADCDAT line. ADCDAT and ADCLRC
are synchronous with the BCLK signal with each data bit transition signified by a BCLK high to low
transition. ADCDAT is always an output. BCLK and ADCLRC maybe an input or an output
depending whether the device is in master or slave mode. Refer to the MASTER/SLAVE
OPERATION section.
There are four digital audio interface formats accommodated by the WM8739. These are shown in
the figures below. Refer to the Electrical Characteristic section for timing information.

Figure 16 DSP Mode
The ADC digital audio interface modes are software configurable as indicated in Figure 16. Note that
dynamically changing the software format may results in erroneous operation of the interfaces and is
therefore not recommended.
The length of the digital audio data is programmable at 16/20/24 or 32 bits. Refer to the software
control table below. The data is signed 2’s complement. The ADC digital filters process data using 24
bits. If the ADC is programmed to output 16 or 20 bit data then it strips the LSBs from the 24 bit data.
If the ADC is programmed to output 32 bits then it packs the LSBs with zeros.
ADCDAT is always an output. It powers up and returns from standby ‘low’.
ADCLRC and BCLK can be either outputs or inputs depending on whether the device is configured
as a master or slave. If the device is a master then the ADCLRC and BCLK signals are outputs that
default low. If the device is a slave then the ADCLRC and BCLK are inputs.

As a master mode device the WM8739 controls the sequencing of data transfer (ADCDAT) and
output of clocks (BCLK, ADCLRC) over the digital audio interface. It uses the timing generated from
either its on-board crystal or the MCLK input as the reference for the clock and data transitions. This
is illustrated in Figure 17. ADCDAT is always an output from the WM8739 independent of master or

AUDIO DATA SAMPLING RATES
The WM8739 provides for two modes of operation (normal and USB) to generate the required ADC
sampling rate. Normal and USB modes are programmed under software control according to the
table below.
In Normal mode, the user controls the sample rate by using an appropriate MCLK or crystal
frequency and the sample rate control register setting. The WM8739 can support sample rates from
8ks/s up to 96ks/s.
In USB mode, the user must use a fixed MLCK or crystal frequency of 12MHz to generate sample
rates from 8ks/s to 96ks/s. It is called USB mode since the common USB (Universal Serial Bus)
clock is at 12MHz and the WM8739 can be directly used within such systems. WM8739 can
generate all the normal audio sample rates from this one Master Clock frequency, removing the need
for different master clocks or PLL circuits.

NORMAL MODE SAMPLE RATES
In normal mode MCLK/crystal oscillator is set up according to the desired sample rate of the ADC.
For ADC sampling rates of 8, 32, 48 or 96kHz, MCLK frequencies of either 12.288MHz (256fs) or
18.432MHz (384fs) can be used. For ADC sampling rates of 8, 44.1 or 88.2kHz from MCLK
frequencies of either 11.2896MHz (256fs) or 16.9344MHz (384fs) can be used.
The table below should be used to set up the device to work with the various sample rate
combinations. For example if the user wishes to use the WM8739 in normal mode with the ADC
sample rate at 48kHz, then the device should be programmed with BOSR = 0, SR3 = 0, SR2 = 0,
SR1 = 0 and SR0 = 0 with a 12.288MHz MCLK or with BOSR = 1, SR3 = 0, SR2 = 0, SR1 = 0 and
SR0 = 0 with a 18.432MHz MCLK. The ADC will then operate with a Digital Filter of type 1, refer to

256fs, with BOSR = 1, the base over-sampling rate is at 384fs. This can be used to determine the
actual audio data rate produced by the ADC.
Example scenarios are:
1. with a requirement that the ADC data rate is 8kHz, then choosing MCLK = 12.288MHz the
device is programmed with BOSR = 0 (256fs), SR3 = 0, SR2 = 0, SR1 = 1, SR0 = 0.The ADC
output data rate will then be exactly 8kHz (derived from 12.288MHz/256 x1/6)
2. with a requirement that ADC data rate is 8kHz, then choosing MCLK = 16.9344MHz the device
is programmed with BOSR = 1 (384fs), SR3 = 1, SR2 = 0, SR1 = 0, SR0 = 1. The ADC will no
longer output data at exactly 8.000kHz, instead it will be 8.018kHz (derived from
16.9344MHz/384 x 2/11). A slight (sub 0.5%) pitch shift will therefore result in the 8kHz audio
data and (importantly) the user must ensure that the data across the digital interface is correctly
synchronised at the 8.018kHz rate.
The exact sample rates achieved are defined by the relationships in Table 8.

4. All other combinations of BOSR and SR[3:0] that are not in the truth table are invalid
The table above can be used to set up the device to work with various sample rate combinations. For
example if the user wishes to use the WM8739 in USB mode with the ADC sample rate at 48kHz,
then the device should be programmed with BOSR = 0, SR3 = 0, SR2 = 0, SR1 = 0 and SR0 = 0.
The ADC will then operate with a Digital Filter of type 0, refer to Digital Filter Characteristics section
for an explanation of the different filter types.
The BOSR bit represents the base over-sampling rate. This is the rate that the WM8739 digital signal
processing is carried out at and the sampling rate will always be a sub-multiple of this. In USB mode,
with BOSR = 0, the base over-sampling rate is defined at 250fs, with BOSR = 1, the base over-
sampling rate is defined at 272fs. This can be used to determine the actual audio sampling rate
produced by the ADC.
Example scenarios are:
1. with a requirement that the ADC data sampling rate is 8kHz the device is programmed with
BOSR = 0 (250fs), SR3 = 0, SR2 = 0, SR1 = 1, SR0 = 0.The ADC will then be exactly 8kHz
(derived from 12MHz/250 x 1/6).
2. with a requirement that ADC data rate is 8kHz the device is programmed with BOSR = 1
(272fs), SR3 = 0, SR2 = 0, SR1 = 1, SR0 = 0. The ADC will not output data at exactly 8kHz,
instead it will be 8.021kHz (derived from 12MHz/272 x 2/11). A slight (sub 0.5%) pitch shift will
therefore result in the 8kHz audio data and (more importantly) the user must ensure that the
data across the digital interface is correctly synchronised at the 8.021kHz rate.

Selection of interface format is achieved by setting the state of the MODE pin.
In 3-wire mode, SDIN is used for the program data, SCLK is used to clock in the program data and
CSB is used to latch in the program data. In 2-wire mode, SDIN is used for serial data and SCLK is
used for the serial clock. In 2-wire mode, the state of the CSB pin allows the user to select one of two

Table 14 2-Wire MPU Interface Address Selection
To control the WM8739 on the 2-wire bus the master control device must initiate a data transfer by
establishing a start condition, defined by a high to low transition on SDIN while SCLK remains high.
This indicates that an address and data transfer will follow. All peripherals on the 2-wire bus respond
to the start condition and shift in the next eight bits (7-bit address + R/W bit). The transfer is MSB
first. The 7-bit address consists of a 6-bit base address + a single programmable bit to select one of
two available addresses for this device (see Table 14). If the correct address is received and the R/W
bit is ‘0’, indicating a write, then the WM8739 will respond by pulling SDIN low on the next clock pulse
(ACK). The WM8739 is a write only device and will only respond to the R/W bit indicating a write. If
the address is not recognised the device will return to the idle condition and wait for a new start
condition and valid address.
Once the WM8739 has acknowledged a correct address, the controller will send eight data bits (bits
B[15]-B[8]). WM8739 will then acknowledge the sent data by pulling SDIN low for one clock pulse.
The controller will then send the remaining eight data bits (bits B[7]-B[0]) and the WM8739 will then
acknowledge again by pulling SDIN low.
A stop condition is defined when there is a low to high transition on SDIN while SCLK is high. If a
start or stop condition is detected out of sequence at any point in the data transfer then the device
will jump to the idle condition.

After receiving a complete address and data sequence the WM8739 returns to the idle state and
waits for another start condition. Each write to a register requires the complete sequence of start
condition, device address and R/W bit followed by the 16 register address and data bits.

DEVICE RESETTING
The WM8739 contains a power on reset circuit that resets the internal state of the device to a known

level of DCVDD crosses a minimum turn off threshold. If DCVDD later falls below a minimum turn on
threshold voltage then the power on reset is re-applied. The threshold voltages and associated
hysteresis are shown in the Electrical Characteristics table.
The user also has the ability to reset the device to a known state under software control as shown in
