MCLK Usage for Analog Section

Category: Datasheet/Specs
Product Number: MAX98091

I am using MAX98091  as just an Audio Mux.   

There are 2 analog inputs which I want to switch to the Analog output and also set the Gain

The MCLK signal is shown as part of DAI. Since I dont have DA,  I assumed that MCLK signal is not required and hence not connected.

It is possible  to operate MAX98091  in analog mode without MCLK ?

 

Thanks

  • Still waiting for a reply on this. I anybody can help it would be much appreciated

  • I apologize for missing this thread and having a late response.

    There are usually some analog-only paths that work without MCLK.  Let me set this up on my bench and verify that this is true, and I'll let you know which analog paths can be used without clocks.

  • I can confirm that the analog inputs (LINE or MIC) may be routed to the headphone, speaker, and receiver outputs without an MCLK present on the MAX98091.

    All of the gain settings may also be adjusted without MCLK present.

  • Thank you Ed for the response. Much appreciated.

    I am trying out a simple configuration. I have a stereo line in coming on INP 5 and INP 6

    Trying to route it to Line Out L/R without any gain. Following are the register settings.

    Not getting any output.  Checked and confirmed good signal level at input. Also  read back and verified register settings. Am I missing any settings ?

  • Hello, satish1959,

    The registers that you provided match mine when setting up this signal path, but there must be something missing in your overall configuration.

    Here are the contents from the control registers on my bench setup which is currently routing INP5 and INP6 to the line outputs without an MCLK present.  Please try these settings out and see if you can pass the analog signal through the MAX98091.  If it works, you can use this template to see which setting you are missing.

  • I missed the device enable register 0x45

    After setting this it works

    Thanks a lot for the help

  • I'm glad I was able to assist you.  Good luck with your application!
