AUDIO DATA SAMPLING RATES

The master clock for WM8521 supports audio sampling rates from 256fs to 768fs, where fs is the

audio sampling frequency (LRCLK) typically 32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz or 192kHz. The master

clock is used to operate the digital filters and the noise shaping circuits.

The WM8521 has a master clock detection circuit that automatically determines the relationship

between the master clock frequency and the sampling rate (to within +/- 32 master clocks). If there is

a greater than 32 clocks error, the master clock defaults to 768fs. The master clock should be

synchronised with LRCLK, although the WM8521 is tolerant of phase differences or jitter on this

clock.
