Using an oscilloscope on the DB60XG, the AK4510 digital inputs (CMOS/TTL) are pretty simple: Pin 17 SDTI = Serial stereo input A/D data, MSB first Pin 13 STD0 = Serial stereo output D/A data, same format Pin 12 SCLK = Serial Data Clock = 48xFs = 2.1168 MHz Pin 11 L/R frame clock - Fs = 44100 Hz sampling rate, High=Left, Low=Right Pin 9 CMODE = H -> MCLK = 384 Fs For a clean (pure digital) signal, the digital inputs to the AK4510 could be buffered and sent to a SPDIF transmitter IC for digital SPDIF (coax/fiber) input to a sound mixer.
