1DIN-Digital Input Signal
2GAIN_SLOT-Gain and Channel Selection. In I2S and LJ mode determines amplifier output gain (Table 8). In TDM mode, used for channel selection with SD_MODE (Table 7). In TDM mode, gain is fixed at 12dB.
4SD_MODE-Shutdown and Channel Select. Pull SD_MODE low to place the device in shutdown. In I2S or LJ mode, SD_MODE selects the data channel (Table 5). In TDM mode, SD_MODE and GAIN_SLOT are both used for channel selection (Table 7).
