6.1 Overview

The PCM1841-Q1 is a high-performance, low-power, quad-channel, audio analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with flexible audio interface control options. This device is intended for applications in voice-activated systems, AV receivers, TV and blu-ray players, professional microphones, audio conferencing, portable computing, communication, and entertainment applications. The high dynamic range of the device enables far-field audio recording with high fidelity. This device integrates a host of features that reduce costs, board space, and power consumption in space-constrained, battery-powered, consumer, home, and industrial applications. The device features are controlled through hardware by pulling pins high or low with resistors or a controller GPIO. The PCM1841-Q1 also supports a power-down and reset function by means of halting the system clock.

The PCM1841-Q1 consists of the following blocks and features:

  • Quad-channel, multibit, high-performance delta-sigma (ΔΣ) ADC
  • Differential audio inputs with a 2VRMS full-scale signal
  • Low-noise, 1.6µVRMS, microphone bias output
  • Hardware pin control operation to select the device features
  • Audio bus serial interface controller or target select option
  • Audio bus serial interface format select option
  • Audio bus serial interface supported up to 192kHz sampling
  • Target mode supports dynamic range enhancer (DRE) with 123dB dynamic range
  • Target mode supports decimation filters with linear-phase or low-latency filter selection
  • Controller mode operation supported using system clock of 256 × fS or 512 × fS
  • Power-down function by means of halting the audio clocks
  • Integrated high-pass filter (HPF) that removes the DC component of the input signal
  • Integrated low-jitter phase-locked loop (PLL) supporting a wide range of system clocks
  • Integrated digital and analog voltage regulators to support single-supply 3.3V operation
