PRODUCTION DATA.
The PCM186x software-controlled devices have the ability to automatically lower the gain in 0.5 dB steps under the following conditions if the ADC is clipping.
The device detects clipping after the decimation filter in the signal chain, shown in Figure 30, and counts the number of successive clips before responding.
The device also generates an internal interrupt that can be mapped to a GPIO or interrupt pin, allowing the system microcontroller to make the decision to increase the gain and consider the clipping an isolated event, or make the decision that the new gain setting is appropriate.
