3.2 Circuit Description
This section describes the schematic for the audio daughtercard. The
schematics for the CODEC-5.1 card are shown at the end of this manual.
Figure A.1 shows the hierarchical connections between the various
blocks.
Figure A.2 illustrates the connections to the EB402/3. Both SPORT0 and
SPORT1 are used to provide access to the GPIO lines required. GPIO
lines on the LSI402ZX/LSI403LP chip are used to control the 4-wire
interface on the Codec. This four-wire interface is used to configure the
codec and read back status information. SPORT0 contains the serial
TDM interface between the AK4586 Codec and the ZSP processor. The
TX clock from SPORT1 is routed to the clock input of the AK4586. When
no external digital source is present, the AK4586 will automatically switch
to the clock input signal to generate it’s clock. This allows the codec rate
to be set under program control. The codec produces 2 interrupts which
are routed to the LSI402ZX/LSI403LP to pins INT2 and INT3. These
interrupt lines are used to indicate operational status like the lock signal,
non-PCM data stream, etc.
Figure A.3 contains the connections to the AK4586 Codec. A separate
+5V regulator is used to provide the +5V rail required for the AK4586.
U11 generates a reset pulse at powerup for the AK4586.
Figure A.4 shows the power supplies for the daughtercard. U2 is used to
provide the +7V supply for the op-amps when using internal power. The
analog power used by the amplifiers can either be produced on the
CODEC-5.1 or through an external power supply. Jumpers J3, J4, and
J5 are used to select either internally generated power or external power.
J5, when installed, shuts down both U3 and U4. U3 generates a -9V rail
from the +9V supplied from the EB402, and U4 generates -7V from the
-9V supply. The use of external supplies helps to reduce noise in
sensitive environments, while the internal supplies provide a level of
convenience for development purposes. J9 provides the common
connection between the analog and digital ground planes and must be
always installed. The artwork includes a permanent connection across J9
