CS4344/5/6/8
12 DS613PP2
4.APPLICATIONS
The CS4344 family accepts data at standard audio sample rates including 48, 44.1 and 32 kHz in SSM, 96,
88.2 and 64 kHz in DSM, and 192, 176.4 and 128 kHz in QSM. Audio data is input via the serial data input
pin (SDIN). The Left/Right Clock (LRCK) determines which channel is currently being input on SDIN,
and the optional Serial Clock (SCLK) clocks audio data into the input data buffer. The CS4344/5/6/8 differ
in serial data formats as shown in Figures 7-10.
4.1 Master Clock
MCLK/LRCK must be an integer ratio as shown in Table 1. The LRCK frequency is equal to Fs, the fre-
quency at which words for each channel are input to the device. The MCLK-to-LRCK frequency ratio and
speed mode is detected automatically during the initialization sequence by counting the number of MCLK
transitions during a single LRCK period and by detecting the absolute speed of MCLK. Internal dividers
are set to generate the proper clocks. Table 1 illustrates several standard audio sample rates and the re-
quired MCLK and LRCK frequencies. Please note there is no required phase relationship, but MCLK,
LRCK and SCLK must be synchronous.

4.2 Serial Clock
The serial clock controls the shifting of data into the input data buffers. The CS4344 family supports both
external and internal serial clock generation modes. Refer to Figures 7-10 for data formats.
4.2.1 External Serial Clock Mode
The CS4344 family will enter the External Serial Clock Mode when 16 low to high transitions are de-
tected on the DEM/SCLK pin during any phase of the LRCK period. When this mode is enabled, the
Internal Serial Clock Mode and de-emphasis filter cannot be accessed. The CS4344 family will switch
to Internal Serial Clock Mode if no low to high transitions are detected on the DEM/SCLK pin for 2
consecutive frames of LRCK. Refer to Figure 12.
