Differential AC Coupled Configuration

In AC-Coupled differential input configuration, the common mode voltage, can be configured through an external bias resistor and MICBIAS. This Excel tool TAX5X1X-Q1-EXT-RES-CALCULATOR can be found from this link The tool calculates this external resistance based on input swing and the desired MICBIAS voltage.

As an example using differential input swing of 10 Vrms and 8 V MICBIAS, the maximum resistance allowed is 2399.4 Ω and the closest standard resistance is 2375 Ω. Based on this standard value resistance, the effective impedance looking into the device is about 2184 Ω. This effective input impedance forms a high pass filter with the external capacitor for these inputs and Vcm is the respective common voltage.

The following script configures the device to differential AC-Coupling mode.
