Common Processor Board supports TI ‘s Audio Codec IC Mfr. Part# PCM3168APAP, to interface with J721E SoC McASP Port 10. A 1:3 De-Mux (Mfr. Part# SN74CBT16214CDGGR) Port B1 is used to interface McASP port 10 with codec. Port Selection is controlled by a I2C GPIO Expander and EVM Configuration switch. Table 4-21 shows the MUX table.
MUX_SEL2 | MUX_SEL1 | MUX_SEL0 | Function | |
---|---|---|---|---|
High | High | Low | A port = B1 port | (default) |
High | High | High | A port = B2 port | |
High | Low | High | A port = B3 port |
The Reference clock (SCKI) to the codec device is sourced from processor’s AUDIO_EXT_REFCLK2 using 1 to 2 Fan out clock buffer SN74LVC2G125DCUR, the secondary output clock from the fan out buffer is routed to EVM expansion connector to interface to Infotainment Audio Codec devices.
The MODE pin is held LOW to select I2C as control interface. Codec is configured over I2C3 interface. Default I2C address is set to 0x44. The device reset is controlled by the I2C GPIO expander using a I2C3 master port.
Line IN Port:
Single ended Stereo 1x Line Input signal from the Audio Jack J38 is converted to differential using “single ended to differential converter with Anti-aliasing low pass fiter” and interfaced with CODEC.
MIC Input Port:
Single ended Stereo 2x MIC Input signals from the stacked Audio Jack J39 is converted to differential using “single ended to differential converter with Anti-aliasing low pass fiter” and interfaced with CODEC. Pre-Amplifier circuit is provider inline to LPF circuit to amplify the external microphone inputs.
Microphone Input ports can be configured for Active and Passive microphones and also can be configured for Line Input. The configuration is set by the resistor option, as shown in Table 4-22.
Install | Remove | ||
---|---|---|---|
PASSIVE-MIC (default) | BIAS + PREAMP | R2, R3, R5, R6 | R1, R4 |
ACTIVE-MIC | BIAS ONLY | R1, R2, R4, R5 | R3, R6 |
LINE-INPUT | NO BIAS/PREAMP | R1, R4 | R2, R3, R5, R6 |
Line Out Port:
2x digital Outputs from the CODEC is converted to single ended and terminated to stereo Audio jack J40 bottom port using “differential to single ended” converter Line out circuit.
Head Phone Port:
6x differential digital Outputs from the CODEC is converted to single ended and terminated to stereo Audio Jack J40 top port and stacked audio jack J41 with head phone circuit.
