Product details
Overview
PCM3002EG/2K from Texas Instruments is a 20-bit stereo audio codec IC integrating monolithic delta-sigma ADC and DAC with single-ended analog input/output, 64× oversampling, software-controlled digital attenuation (256 steps), soft mute, and four programmable audio data formats including I²S. It operates from a single 3-V supply in SSOP-24 and targets portable DVC and mobile audio subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the PCM3002EG/2K datasheet, PCM3002EG/2K pinout, PCM3002EG/2K application, or PCM3002EG/2K equivalent, key selection criteria include its 90-dB SNR ADC, 94-dB SNR DAC, independent ADC/DAC power-down, zero-flag output (ZFLG), and support for 4–48 kHz sampling rates with 256/384/512× system clock multiplication.
Technical Context
The PCM3002EG/2K implements a dual-path delta-sigma architecture: the ADC uses 64× oversampling with digital decimation and high-pass filtering for offset cancellation, while the DAC employs 8× oversampling with interpolation, de-emphasis (32/44.1/48 kHz), infinite zero detection, and analog low-pass filtering. Both paths share a common 24-pin SSOP package and operate synchronously to SYSCLK, LRCIN, and BCKIN.
Control is exclusively software-driven via three-wire mode interface (ML, MD, MC) - distinct from the hardware-configured PCM3003 - enabling dynamic register reconfiguration of data format, attenuation, mute, and loopback without hardware changes. The ZFLG open-drain output signals zero-crossing detection on DOUT for precise timing-critical audio processing.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar stereo audio codec applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PCM3003E/2K | Hardware-controlled (DEM0/DEM1, 20BIT pins); no software interface or ZFLG; fixed data formats (0–1 only) | Targeted at cost-sensitive DSC designs requiring fixed de-emphasis and simpler layout; lacks runtime configurability | Select when firmware complexity must be minimized and audio parameters remain static across production units |
| TLV320AIC23BPW | 24-bit resolution; I²C/SPI control; lower THD+N (–90 dB); higher supply current (22 mA active) | Better suited for professional-grade portable recorders needing extended dynamic range and multi-device I²C bus control | Select when 24-bit precision, lower noise floor, or multi-codec I²C daisy-chaining is required |
Compared with PCM3002EG/2K, PCM3003E/2K trades software flexibility for reduced BOM count and layout simplicity, while TLV320AIC23BPW offers higher resolution and digital interface versatility at the cost of increased power and board area - making PCM3002EG/2K optimal for mid-tier DVCs balancing performance, configurability, and size.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling rate supported by the PCM3002EG/2K?
The PCM3002EG/2K supports sampling rates from 4 kHz up to 48 kHz, with corresponding system clock frequencies of 256×, 384×, or 512× fS. At 48 kHz, the required SYSCLK is 24.576 MHz (512×), enabling full-bandwidth CD-quality audio capture and playback. Performance metrics such as SNR and THD+N are specified across this entire range in the SBAS079A datasheet.
Does the PCM3002EG/2K require external anti-aliasing or reconstruction filters?
No, the PCM3002EG/2K integrates both functions internally: the ADC includes a switched-capacitor antialiasing filter with –3 dB point at 150 kHz, and the DAC incorporates an analog low-pass filter with –0.16 dB ripple up to 20 kHz. These eliminate the need for external passive RC or active filter components, reducing BOM count and PCB area in portable designs.
How does the ZFLG pin on the PCM3002EG/2K function in audio systems?
The ZFLG pin on the PCM3002EG/2K is an open-drain output that asserts low when the DOUT data stream crosses zero amplitude, providing hardware-synchronized zero-crossing detection. This enables glitch-free volume transitions, precise sidetone injection timing in VoIP handsets, and accurate trigger points for DSP-based audio analysis - all without CPU polling or software interpolation.
Can the PCM3002EG/2K operate from a 2.5-V supply?
No - the PCM3002EG/2K has a minimum recommended supply voltage of 2.7 V per the SBAS079A datasheet. Operation below 2.7 V risks violation of absolute maximum ratings and may cause undefined behavior in the delta-sigma modulators or digital logic. For 2.5-V systems, consider TI's TLV320AIC310x series or verify compatibility through TI's official characterization reports.
What audio data formats does the PCM3002EG/2K support, and how are they selected?
The PCM3002EG/2K supports four formats: right-justified (16/20-bit), left-justified (16/20-bit), and I²S (20-bit), all selectable via software writes to register 3 using the ML/MD/MC interface. Unlike the hardware-configured PCM3003, this enables runtime reconfiguration - for example, switching from I²S for playback to left-justified for recording without changing PCB traces or strapping resistors.
