SBAS451B October 2008 – August 2015 PCM1789
PRODUCTION DATA.
A typical printed circuit board (PCB) layout for the PCM1789 is shown in Figure 41. A ground plane is recommended, with the analog and digital sections being isolated from one another using a split or cut in the circuit board. The PCM1789 should be oriented with the digital I/O pins facing the ground plane split/cut to allow for short, direct connections to the digital audio interface and control signals originating from the digital section of the board.
Separate power supplies are recommended for the digital and analog sections of the board. This configuration prevents the switching noise present on the digital supply from contaminating the analog power supply and degrading the dynamic performance of the PCM1789.
