DESCRIPTION
The PCM3000/3001 is a low cost single chip stereo
audio CODEC (analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog
converter) with single-ended analog voltage input and
output.
Both ADCs and DACs employ delta-sigma modula-
tion with 64X oversampling. The ADCs include a
digital decimation filter and the DACs include an 8X
oversampling digital interpolation filter. The DACs
also include digital attenuation, de-emphasis, infinite
zero detection and soft mute to form a complete
subsystem. The PCM3000/3001 operates with left-
justified, right-justified, I2S or DSP data formats.
PCM3000 can be programmed with a 3-wire serial
interface for special features and data formats.
PCM3001 can be pin-programmed for data formats.
Fabricated on a highly advanced CMOS process, the
PCM3000/3001 is suitable for a wide variety of cost-
sensitive consumer applications where good perfor-
mance is required. Applications include sampling key-
boards, digital mixers, mini-disc recorders, hard-disk
recorders, karaoke systems, DSP-based car stereo,
DAT recorders, and video conferencing.

DISCHARGE SENSITIVITY
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Burr-Brown
recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling
and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degrada-
tion to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits
may be more susceptible to damage because very small
parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its
published specifications.

The three-wire digital audio interface for PCM3000/3001 is
on LRCIN (Pin 16), BCKIN (Pin 17), DIN (Pin 18), and
DOUT (Pin 19). The PCM3000/3001 can operate with
seven different data formats. For the PCM3000, these for-
mats are selected through PROGRAM REGISTER 3 in the
software mode. For PCM3001, data formats are selected by
pin-strapping the three format pins. Figures 2, 3 and 4
illustrate audio data input/output format and timing.
PCM3000/3001 can accept 32, 48, or 64 bit clocks (BCKIN)
in one clock of LRCIN. Only formats 0, 2, and 6 can be
selected when 32 bit clocks/LRCIN are applied.

SYSTEM CLOCK
The system clock for the PCM3000/3001 must be either 256fS,
384fS or 512fS, where fS is the audio sampling frequency. The
system clock can be either a crystal oscillator placed between
XTI (Pin 20) and XTO (Pin 21), or an external clock input. If
an external clock is used, the clock is provided to either XTI
or CLKIO (Pin 22), and XTO is open. The PCM3000/3001
has an XTI clock detection circuit which senses if an XTI
clock is operating. When the external clock is delivered to
XTI, CLKIO is a buffered output of XTI. When XTI is
connected to ground, the external clock must be tied to
CLKIO. For best performance, the “External Clock Input 2”
circuit in Figure 5 is recommended.
The PCM3000/3001 also has a system clock detection circuit
which automatically senses if the system clock is operating at

POWER-ON RESET
Both the PCM3000 and PCM3001 have internal power-on
reset circuitry. Power-on reset occurs when system clock
(XTI or CLKIO) is active and VDD > 4.0V. For the PCM3001,
the system clock must complete a minimum of 3 complete
cycles prior to VDD > 4.0V to ensure proper reset operation.
The initialization sequence requires 1024 system cycles for
completion, as shown in Figure 7. Figure 10 shows the state
of the DAC and ADC outputs during and after the reset
sequence.
EXTERNAL RESET
The PCM3000 and PCM3001 include a reset input, RSTB
(pin 28). As shown in Figure 8, the external reset signal must
drive RSTB low for a minimum of 40 nanoseconds while
system clock is active in order to initiate the reset sequence.
Initialization starts on the rising edge of RSTB, and requires
1024 system clock cycles for completion. Figure 10 shows
the state of the DAC and ADC outputs during and after the
reset sequence.

SYNCHRONIZATION WITH THE DIGITAL
AUDIO SYSTEM
PCM3000/3001 operates with LRCIN synchronized to the
system clock. The CODEC does not require any specific
phase relationship between LRCIN and the system clock, but
there must be synchronization. If the synchronization be-
tween the system clock and LRCIN changes more than 6 bit
clocks (BCKIN) during one sample (LRCIN) period because
of phase jitter on LRCIN, internal operation of the DAC will
stop within 1/fS, and the analog output will be forced to
bipolar zero (VCC/2) until the system clock is re-synchronized
to LRCIN. Internal operation of the ADC will also stop with
1/fS, and the digital output codes will be set to bipolar zero
until re-synchronization occurs. If LRCIN is synchronized
with 5 or less bit clocks to the system clock, operation will be
normal.
Figure 11 illustrates the effects on the output when synchro-
nization is lost. Before the outputs are forced to bipolar zero
(<1/fS seconds), the outputs are not defined and some noise
may occur. During the transitions between normal data and
undefined states, the output has discontinuities, which will
cause output noise.

TABLE III. Functions of the Registers.
PROGRAM REGISTER (PCM3000)
The software mode allows the user to control special functions.
PCM3000’s special functions are controlled using four pro-
gram registers which are 16 bits long. There are four distinct
registers, with bits 9 and 10 determining which register is in
use. Table III describes the functions of the four registers.
PROGRAM REGISTER 0
A (1:0): Bit 10, 9 Register Address
These bits define the address for REGISTER 0:
A1 A0
0 0 Register 0
res: Bit 11 : 15 Reserved
These bits are reserved and should be set to “0”.
LDL: Bit 8 DAC Attenuation Data Load Control for
Left Channel
This bit is used to simultaneously set analog
outputs of the left and right channels. The output
level is controlled by AL (7:0) attenuation data
when this bit is set to “1”. When set to “0”, the
new attenuation data will be stored into a register,
and the output level will remain at the previous
attenuation level. The LDR bit in REGISTER 1
has the equivalent function as LDL. When either
LDL or LDR is set to “1”, the output level of the
left and right channels are simultaneously con-
trolled.
AL (7:0): Bit 7 :0

This bit is used to simultaneously set analog
outputs of the left and right channels. The output
level is controlled by AR (7:0) attenuation data
when this bit is set to “1”. When set to “0”, the
new attenuation data will be stored into a register,
and the output level will remain at the previous
attenuation level. The LDL bit in REGISTER 0
has the equivalent function as LDR. When either
LDL or LDR is set to “1”, the output level of the
left and right channels are simultaneously con-
trolled.

APPLICATION AND LAYOUT
CONSIDERATIONS
POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING
The digital and analog power supply lines to PCM3000/
3001 should be bypassed to the corresponding ground pins
with both 0.1µF ceramic and 10µF tantalum capacitors as
close to the device pins as possible. Although PCM3000/
3001 has three power supply lines to optimize dynamic
performance, the use of one common power supply is
generally recommended to avoid unexpected latch-up or pop
noise due to power supply sequencing problems. If separate
power supplies are used, back-to-back diodes are recom-
mended to avoid latch-up problems.
GROUNDING
In order to optimize dynamic performance of PCM3000/
3001, the analog and digital grounds are not internally
connected. PCM3000/3001 performance is optimized with a
single ground plane for all returns. It is recommended to tie
all PCM3000/3001 ground pins with low impedance con-
nections to the analog ground plane. PCM3000/3001 should
reside entirely over this plane to avoid coupling high fre-
quency digital switching noise into the analog ground plane.
VOLTAGE INPUT PINS
A tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitor, between 2.2µF
and 10µF, is recommended as an AC-coupling capacitor at
the inputs. Combined with the 15k characteristic input
impedance, a 2.2µF coupling capacitor will establish a 4.8Hz
cutoff frequency for blocking DC. The input voltage range
can be increased by adding a series resistor on the analog
input line. This series resistor, when combined with the 15k
input impedance, creates a voltage divider and enables larger
input ranges.
VREF INPUTS
A 4.7µF to 10µF tantalum capacitor is recommended be-
tween VREFL, VREFR, and AGND to ensure low source
impedance for the ADC’s references. These capacitors should
be located as close as possible to the reference pins to reduce
dynamic errors on the ADC reference.
CINP AND CINN INPUTS
A 470pF to 1000pF film or NPO ceramic capacitor is recom-
mended between CINPL and CINNL, CINPR, and CINNR to
create an anti-alias filter, which will have an 170kHz to
80kHz cut-off frequency. These capacitors should be located
as close as possible to the CINP and CINN pins to avoid
introducing undesirable noise or dynamic errors into the
delta-sigma modulator.

VCOM INPUTS
A 4.7µF to 10µF tantalum capacitor is recommended be-
tween VCOM and AGND to ensure low source impedance
of the DAC output common. This capacitor should be
located as close as possible to the VCOM pin to reduce
dynamic errors on the DAC common.
SYSTEM CLOCK
The quality of the system clock can influence dynamic
performance of both the ADC and DAC in the PCM3000/
3001. The duty cycle, jitter, and threshold voltage at the
system clock input pin must be carefully managed. When
power is supplied to the part, the system clock, bit clock
(BCKIN) and a word clock (LCRIN) should also be supplied
simultaneously. Failure to supply the audio clocks will result
in a power dissipation increase of up to three times normal
dissipation and may degrade long term reliability if the
maximum power dissipation limit is exceeded.
THEORY OF OPERATION
ADC SECTION
The PCM3000/3001 ADC consists of a bandgap reference,
a stereo single-to-differential converter, a fully differential
5th-order delta-sigma modulator, a decimation filter (includ-
ing digital high pass), and a serial interface circuit. The
Block Diagram in this data sheet illustrates the architecture
of the ADC section, Figure 1 shows the single-to-differential
converter, and Figure 14 illustrates the architecture of the
5th-order delta-sigma modulator and transfer functions.
An internal high precision reference with two external ca-
pacitors provides all reference voltages which are required
by the ADC, which defines the full scale range for the
converter. The internal single-to-differential voltage con-
verter saves the space and extra parts needed for external
circuitry required by many delta-sigma converters. The
internal full differential signal processing architecture pro-
vides a wide dynamic range and excellent power supply
rejection performance.
The input signal is sampled at 64X oversampling rate,
eliminating the need for a sample-and-hold circuit, and
simplifying anti-alias filtering requirements. The 5th-order
delta-sigma noise shaper consists of five integrators which
use a switched-capacitor topology, a comparator and a
feedback loop consisting of a one-bit DAC. The delta-sigma
modulator shapes the quantization noise, shifting it out of
the audio band in the frequency domain. The high order of
the modulator enables it to randomize the modulator out-
puts, reducing idle tone levels.
The 64fS one-bit data stream from the modulator is con-
verted to 1fS 18-bit data words by the decimation filter,
which also acts as a low pass filter to remove the shaped
quantization noise. The DC components are removed by a
high pass filter function contained within the decimation
filter.
THEORY OF OPERATION
DAC SECTION
The delta-sigma DAC section of PCM3000/3001 is based on
a 5-level amplitude quantizer and a 3rd-order noise shaper.
This section converts the oversampled input data to 5-level
delta-sigma format. A block diagram of the 5-level delta-
sigma modulator is shown in Figure 15. This 5-level delta-
sigma modulator has the advantage of improved stability
and reduced clock jitter sensitivity over the typical one-bit
(2 level) delta-sigma modulator.
The combined oversampling rate of the delta-sigma modu-
lator and the internal 8X interpolation filter is 64fS for a
256fS system clock. The theoretical quantization noise per-
formance of the 5-level delta-sigma modulator is shown in
Figure 16.
