[AKD7736A-A] (1) Digital-to-Digital Evaluation using ADC Port and DAC Port: CKM Master Mode = 0/1 ADC-Port and DAC-Port are used on this evaluation. Set the clock mode of the AK7736A to CKM Master Mode 0 (12.288MHz) or CKM Master Mode 1 (18.432MHz). The AK7736A outputs BICK and LRCK to the ADC-Port and DAC-Port by setting the FPGA.

The AKD7736A-A can be controlled by a PC via USB port. Connect the CONTROL-BOX included in this package to the AKD7736A-A with a 10-pin flat cable, and connect the CONTROL-BOX to a PC with a USB cable. The 10-pin flat cable should be connected in the direction that the side with a bump meets a marking, that says “CONTROL”, on the main board of the AKD7736A-A.

Digital Input Circuit For digital input SPDIF-IN, optical connector PORT1 is available. ■ Digital Output Circuit (External DIT: PORT2) Figure 4. Digital Output Circuit For digital output SPDIF-OUT, optical connector PORT2 is available.
(1) Set up the AKD7736A-A as needed, according to the previous terms. (2) Connect the AKD7736A-A to a PC via the CONTROL BOX with a 10-pin flat cable on the evaluation board side and a USB cable on the PC side. After power on the evaluation board, press the reset button (yellow) of the CONTROL BOX to initialize the USB chip.
