DESCRIPTION
The AV2636 is a high performance, low power
stereo audio digital to analog converter (DAC). It
is designed for high performance audio
applications such as CD player, DVD player,
home theater systems, digital TVs and set top
boxes. Based on the state of the art multi-bit
∆−Σ
modulator, it also includes the digital
interpolation filters, digital volume control, digital
de-emphasis and analog low pass filters. It has
no linearity drift due to time and temperature. It
also has high tolerance to clock jitter.
The device has a serial audio interface that
accepts 16/18/20/24 digital data in I
2
S, Right-
justified or DSP mode. It can work at auto-detect
mode or programmable mode with a two-wire
serial command interface. Audio sample rates
from 8kHz to 192kHz are supported.

ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE SENSITIVITY
The device of integrated circuits is manufactured on CMOS process. It can be damaged by ESD. AVS
Technology recommends that the device be handled with appropriate ESD precautions. Improper
handling and installation procedures can cause damage to the device.
ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
Absolute maximum ratings are the limiting values of the stress. Operation beyond these limits may cause
permanent damage to the device. Normal operation is not guaranteed at these limits.

Notes:
1. SNR is measured as the ratio of output level with 1kHz full scale signal, to output level with all zero
signal into the digital input. The measurement is over 20Hz to 20kHz bandwidth with a ‘A-weight’ filter.
2. THD is measured at the output with 1kHz full scale signal into the digital input. The measurement is
over 20Hz to 20kHz bandwidth.
3. Dynamic Range is the ratio of maximum output over minimum output. It is normally measured by
THD+N at the output with an input signal that is 60dB below full scale. The 60dB is then added back
to the THD+N value for the final result.
4. Channel separation is also known as channel cross talk. It is measured by sending a 1kHz full scale
signal into one channel and measuring the output value at the other channel.
5. All measurements are done with a 20kHz low pass filter. Fail to use the filter will result in reduced
performance reading.
6. The VCM pin should be decoupled with a 10uF capacitor in parallel with a 0.1uF capacitor. Smaller
value may result in reduced performance.

Product Datasheet
OPERATING MODE
The AV2636 can operate at two modes. They are auto-detect mode and programmable mode. The
‘MODE’ pin status (High/Low) determines which mode the device will be operated. If MODE = Low (pull to
GND or not connected using internal pull down), the device will be operated at auto-detect mode. If
MODE = High (pull to VDD), the device will be operated at programmable mode. The basic functions of
the two modes are described as follows:
•
Auto-detect mode:
The relation between sample rate and master clock frequency is auto detected.
De-emphasis and serial interface mode are determined by FMTC and FMTD pins.
•
Programmable mode:
The device operation will be set by on chip control registers that can be
accessed through a two-wire command interface.
AUDIO DATA SAMPLE RATE AND MASTER CLOCK FREQUENCY
The AV2636 supports various audio data sample rate (fs) from 8kHz to 192kHz. The typical audio sample
rates are 32kHz, 44.1kH, 48kHz, 96kHz and 192kHz. The master clock (MCK) can be of 64fs to 384fs
depending on the operation mode. MCK is an input clock that operates the internal digital filters. Other on
chip clocks are also derived from MCK.
The on-chip master clock detection circuit automatically determines the relationship of master clock
frequency and audio sample rate. The counting error is set to be ±8 master clock cycles. If the error is
larger than the threshold, the DAC output will be shut down and auto muted.
The master clock has to be synchronized with the serial audio data frame signal ‘SF’. SF is also called left
and right data frame signal. The phase difference and clock jitters can be tolerated.
