Preliminary Technical Data

WM8976

PTD Rev 2.0 February 2005

Note that OUT3 and OUT4 have an optional output boost of 1.5x. When these are configured in this

output boost mode (OUT3BOOST/OUT4BOOST=1) then the VMID value of these outputs will be

equal to 1.5xAVDD/2 and will not match the VMID of the headphone drivers. Do not use the DC

coupled output mode in this configuration.

It is recommended to connect the DC coupled outputs only to headphones, and not to the line input

of another device. Although the built-in short circuit protection will prevent any damage to the

headphone outputs, such a connection may be noisy, and may not function properly if the other

device is grounded.

SPEAKER OUTPUTS (LOUT2 AND ROUT2)

The outputs LOUT2 and ROUT2 are designed to drive an 8Ω BTL speaker but can optionally drive

two headphone loads of 16

Ω/32Ω or a line output (see Headphone Output and Line Output sections,

respectively). Each output has an individual volume control PGA, an output boost/level shift bit, a

mute and an enable as shown in Figure 22.

LOUT2 and ROUT2 output the left and right channel

mixer outputs respectively.

The ROUT2 signal path also has an optional invert. The amplifier used for this invert can be used to

mix in the AUXR signal with an adjustable gain range of -15dB -> +6dB. This allows a ‘beep’ signal

to be applied only to the speaker output without affecting the HP or line outputs.
