AKD4633-A is an evaluation board for the AK4633VN, 16bit mono CODEC with MIC/SPK amplifier. The AKD4633-A can evaluate A/D converter and D/A converter separately in addition to loopback mode (A/D D/A). AKD4633-A also has the digital audio interface and can achieve the interface with digital audio systems via opt-connector.

ASAHI KASEI [AKD4633-A] (1) Evaluation of loop-back mode (A/D D/A) : PLL, Master Mode a) Set up jumper pins of MCKI clock X’tal of 11.2896MHz, 12MHz, 12.288MHz, 13MHz, 24MHz or 27MHz can be set in X2. X’tal of 12.288MHz (Default) is set on the AKD4633VN.
Page 4
Set up jumper pins of MCKI clock X’tal of 12.288MHz (Default) is set on the AKD4633-A. In this case, the AK4633VN corresponds to PLL reference clock of 12.288MHz. In this evaluation mode, the output clock from MCKO-pin of the AK4633VN is supplied to a divider (U3: 74VHC4040), BICK and FCK clocks are generated by the divider.
