A circuit for 2 V rms line-level inputs is shown in Figure 11.
Note that this is approximately a divide-by-two resistive divider.

Figure 11. AD1849K 2 V rms Line-Level Input Circuit
An external passive antialias filter is required. If line-level inputs
are already at the 1 V rms levels expected by the AD1849K , the
resistors in parallel with the 560 pF capacitors should be
omitted and the series 5.1 k
resistor should be decreased to
2.5 k
.
T he AD1849K Codec contains a bypassable +20 dB gain block
to accommodate condenser microphones. Particular system
requirements will depend upon the characteristics of the
intended microphone. Figure 12 illustrates one example of how
an electret condenser mike requiring phantom power could be
connected to the AD1849K . CMOUT is shown buffered by an
op amp; a transistor like a 2N4124 will also work fine for this
purpose. Note that if a battery-powered microphone is used, the
buffer and R2s are not needed. T he values of R1, R2, and C
should be chosen in light of the mic characteristics and intended
gain. T ypical values for these might be R1 = 20 k
, R2 = 2 k
,
and C = 220 pF.

Figure 13 shows ac-coupled line outputs. T he resistors are used
to center the output signals around analog ground. If dc-
coupling is desired, CMOUT could be used with op amps as
mentioned below.

T he AD1849K has a common return path LOUT 1C which is
biased up to the CMOUT voltage, nominally 2.25 V. T he
AD1849K allows for 6 dB larger output voltage swings by
resetting the OLB bit (Bit 59 of the Control Word) to “0.”
Figure 15 illustrates an alternative headphone connection for
the AD1849K which uses the LOUT 1C pin to eliminate the
need for ac coupling. T he 12
resistors minimize output level
variations caused by different headphone impedances.
LOUT 1L, LOUT 1R and LOUT 1C are short-circuit protected.
Note that driving headphones directly as shown in Figure 15
with OLB = 0 will cause clipping for large input signals and will
only work with very efficient “Walkman-type” headphones. For
high quality headphone listening, Analog Devices recommends
the circuit shown in Figure 14 with OLB = 1.
