AUDIO SERIAL PORT OPERATION
This section provides additional details regarding the
PCM4202 audio serial port, utilized for 24-bit linear PCM
or 1-bit DSD output data. PCM output operation will be
described in this section, while DSD output mode
operation will be described in the following section.
For PCM data formats, the serial port is comprised of three
signals: BCK (pin 16), LRCK (pin 17), and DATA (pin 15).
The BCK signal functions as the data (or bit) clock for the
serial audio data. The LRCK is the left/right word clock for
the audio serial port. The LRCK and BCK clocks must be
synchronous. The DATA signal is the serial audio data
output, with data being clocked out on the falling edge of
the BCK signal. DATA carries audio data for both the Left
and Right channels.
As mentioned in the Audio Data Format section of this
datasheet, the audio serial port can operate in Master or
Slave mode. In Master mode, the BCK and LRCK clock
signals are outputs, derived from the system clock input,
SCKI. The BCK clock is fixed at 128f
S
for Single Rate
sampling mode, and at 64f
S
for Dual or Quad Rate
sampling modes. The LRCK clock operates at f
S
, the
output sampling rate (that is, 48kHz, 96kHz, etc.).
In Slave mode, the BCK and LRCK signals are inputs, with
the clocks being generated by a master timing source,
such as a DSP serial port, PLL clock synthesizer, or a
crystal oscillator/divider circuit. The BCK rate is typically
equal to 128f
S
in Single Rate sampling mode, and 64f
S
in
Dual or Quad Rate sampling modes. Although other BCK
clock rates are possible, they are not recommended as a
result if potential clock phase sensitivity issues, which can
degrade the dynamic performance of the PCM4202. The
LRCK clock must be operated at f
S
, the output sampling
rate.
Figure 5 illustrates the typical audio serial port
connections between a PCM4202 and an audio signal
processor when using the PCM output data formats.
Figure 6 illustrates the audio serial port timing for both the
Master and Slave modes of operation.
