- 98dB SNR (vs PCM2902)
- Integrated S/PDIF output (vs PCM2705)
Design Notes
The PCM2705C operates from a 3.3V supply. Use a low-noise LDO, such as the TPS7A4700, to power the analog section and minimize noise. Decouple the VCC pin with a 10uF ceramic capacitor and a 0.1uF capacitor close to the pin. Ensure the ground plane is solid to reduce noise coupling.
For USB signal integrity, route the D+ and D- traces as a differential pair with controlled impedance (90 ohms). Keep the traces short and avoid vias. Place the crystal oscillator close to the XTAL_IN and XTAL_OUT pins, and ensure proper grounding around it to prevent EMI.
When using the SPI interface for descriptor programming, ensure the PSEL and HOST pins are configured correctly. Incorrect settings may cause the device to enter an unintended mode. Also, verify that the external ROM or SPI host is properly initialized before the device enumerates on the USB bus.
