35.6 Functional Description
35.6.1 Protocol overview
AC-link protocol is a bidirectional, fixed clock rate, serial digital stream. AC-link handles multiple input and output
Pulse Code Modulation PCM audio streams, as well as control register accesses employing a Time Division
Multiplexed (TDM) scheme that divides each audio frame in 12 outgoing and 12 incoming 20-bit wide data slots.
