SLASF27A December 2023 – November 2024 TAC5242
PRODUCTION DATA
All audio data converters require a DC reference voltage. The TAC5242 achieves low-noise performance by internally generating a low-noise reference voltage. This reference voltage is generated using a band-gap circuit with high PSRR performance. This audio converter reference voltage must be filtered externally using a minimum 1µF capacitor connected from the VREF pin to the analog ground (VSS). The value of this reference voltage, VREF, is set to 2.75V, which in turn supports a 2VRMS differential full-scale input and 2VRMS differential full-scale output to the device. The required minimum AVDD voltage for this VREF voltage is 3V. When the device is configured for 1.8V AVDD supply voltage, the voltage on the VREF pin is 1.375V, which in turn supports a 1VRMS differential full-scale input to the device. Do not connect any external load to a VREF pin.
