Table 5. ADC Input Mixer Register
Stereo Audio CODEC
with FLEXSOUND Technology
The device’s record signal path includes both automatic
gain control (AGC) for the microphone inputs and a digi-
tal noise gate at the output of the ADC (Figure 10).
The IC’s AGC monitors the signal level at the output of
the ADC and then adjusts the MIC1 and MIC2 analog
PGA settings automatically. When the signal level is
below the predefined threshold, the gain is increased up
to its maximum (20dB). If the signal exceeds the thresh-
old, the gain is reduced to prevent the output signal level
exceeding the threshold. When AGC is enabled, the
microphone PGA is not user programmable. The AGC
provides a more constant signal level and improves the
available ADC dynamic range.

Since the AGC increases the levels of all signals below
a user-defined threshold, the noise floor is effectively
increased by 20dB. To counteract this, the noise gate
reduces the gain at low signal levels. Unlike typical noise
gates that completely silence the output below a defined
level, the noise gate in the IC applies downward expan-
sion. The noise gate attenuates the output at a rate of
1dB for each 2dB the signal is below the threshold.
The noise gate can be used in conjunction with the AGC
or on its own. When the AGC is enabled, the noise gate
reduces the output level only when the AGC has set the
gain to the maximum setting. Figure 11 shows the gain
response resulting from using the AGC and noise gate.
