1 MADI Specification Requirements

The MADI Specification standard describes the 125-Mbps NRZI, 4/5-bit coded serial data frame format and electrical characteristics for a multichannel audio digital interface. This specification governs requirements for serial digital transmission over coax or fiber-optic lines of 28, 56, or 64 channels represented at a common sampling frequency of 32 KHz to 96 KHz with a resolution of up to 24-bits per channel. Only a single-point interface from one transmitter to a receiver is supported. This document describes electrical parameters and changes necessary to make the LMH12xx device family compatible with these requirements.
