3.4 Digital Audio Input Port Description
CS4953x4/CS4970x4 is capable of accepting DSD audio data directly. DSD data differs from PCM in that
audio is provided as a contiguous stream of 1’s and 0’s on a single line. There is no framing clock
(LRCLK), and there is only one channel per line. The CS4953x4/CS4970x4 supports internal conversion
of DSD data to PCM which can then be processed by the DSP.
The CS4953x4/CS4970x4 DSD port is designed to accept DSD audio data from up to 6 pins
simultaneously (6 channels total)
DSD features include:
• Six DSD Input Pins
• One Shared DSD_CLK for All Data Pins
• Supports 44.1 KHz and 88.2 KHz Sample Rates
3.4.1 DSD Pin Description
Table 3-7 shows the mnemonic and pin description of the pins associated with the DSD port on
CS4953x4/CS4970x4.
3.4.2 Supported DSD Functional Blocks
Figure 3-3 shows the functional block diagram of the features currently supported with the CS4953x4/
CS4970x4 DSD Port.
