Therefore setting of CAD1,CAD0 is fixed, CAD1,CAD0 is OFF(0,L),ON(1,H).
Sampling frequency as follows
AK4589 has two methods for detecting the sampling frequency. Clock is compared between recovered clock and X’tal
oscillator by XTL1-0. This information outputs FS0, FS1, and FS2, FS3 bit for detecting the sampling frequency.
The compared X’tal frequency is selected by setting of XTL1-0 (Refer Table 4.) When XTL1-0 is ON(1,H),ON(1,H),
X’tal oscillator is stopped and the encored sampling frequency information of channel status output FS0, FS1, FS2, FS3,
PEM bit of resister control.

Analog Inputs
BNC connector J10 (LIN),J9 (RIN) are used for analog inputs on the AKD4589-B. Analog inputs are single-ended
and input ranges of each channels are nominally 6.2Vpp@5V. (Input ranges of each channels of analog inputs of
AK4589 device are nominally 3[email protected],for the resister division,the value which analog input level of
Evaluation Board is devided by two becomes to analog input level of AK4589 device on the AKD4589-B. So, input
ranges of AKD4589-B becomes to 6.2Vpp@5V,twice of the value in the case of AK4589 device. Input range of
AK4589 device is proportional to VREFH (3.1=0.62 x VREFH). VREFH is connected to AVDD on the
AKD4589-B.)

1) Gain
Gain of analog input circuit is
330/(330+330) = -6.02dB.
Therefore input level for this board is
+0.80dBV(=3.1Vpp)+6.02dB
= +6.82dBV = 6.20Vpp = 2.19Vrms.
2) S/N of op-amp circuit (Theory: BW=20k+A)
Non-inverting amp is implemented on board. The output noise level of op-amp circuit is
-126.01dBV = -132.54dB (0dB=+6.53dBV).
S/N of ADC is
101.6dB (measurement).
Therefore total S/N of op-amp circuit and ADC is
101.60dB (measurement: 101.6dB)

G=-0.84dB) is implemented on AKD4589-B. The differential outputs of AK4589 is buffered by non-inverted circuit and
output via Cannon connector (differential output). LPF adds differential outputs. NJM4580 is used for op-amp on this
