PRODUCTION DATA
By default, packetized audio is received during video blanking periods in dedicated data island transport frames. The transport mode is set in the serializer and auto-loaded into the deserializer by default. The audio configuration may be disabled from control registers if forward channel frame transport of I2S data is desired. In frame transport, only I2S_DA is received to the deserializer. Surround sound mode, which transmits all four I2S data inputs (I2S_D[D:A]), may only be operated in data island transport mode. This mode is only available when connected to a DS90UB927Q, DS90UB949-Q1, DS90UB947-Q1, or DS90UB929-Q1 serializer. If connected to a DS90UB925Q serializer, only I2S_DA and I2S_DB may be received.
There are two I2S transport modes:
Surround Sound (SS) Mode which is the standard 8-channel audio. In this case Audio source is on the Serializer side and uses I2S_DA/DB/DC/ DD pins to drive Audio into the serializer which show up on the Deserializer I2S_DA/DB/DC/DD outputs.
Auxiliary Audio (AA) Mode which is only relevant when the DS90UB948-Q1 is paired with DS90UB949-Q1 Serializer and Audio is send through AUX input of this Serializer.
