Digital Interfaces

2-2

2.1 Digital Interfaces

The TLV320AIC23 EVM has three digital interfaces:

- DSP interface: This interface is compatible with the daughter-card con-

nector of TI DSP DSKs. The supplied user software supports C54x DSPs

on DSK/EVM boards with a parallel port interface.

- USB interface: The TLV320AIC23 EVM features a TUSB3200 USB con-

troller. The firmware implements the USB audio device class, which

makes it possible to play back sound files (MP3, WAV) from a Windowst

PC. The supplied user software does not utilize the USB interface.

- SPDIF interface: An onboard SPDIF transceiver can be used to connect

the AIC23 or DAC23 to a coaxial SDIF source or preamplifier. The firm-

ware for this part is still in development. The supplied user software does

not utilize the SPDIF interface.

2.2 Analog Interfaces

The TLV320AIC23 EVM has the following analog interfaces:

- Microphone in (AIC23 only)

- Line in

- Headphone out

- Line out

2.3 Power Supply

There are three ways to power up the TLV320AIC23 EVM:

- Separate supplies: For highest performance, separate supplies for analog

and digital can be connected to the TLV320AIC23 EVM.

- 7-V dc input. The TLV320AIC23 EVM has one connector for a 7-V to 9-V

power supply such as a wall-plug adapter.

- DSP daughter-card connector. This option is convenient to evaluate the

functionality of the data converter if (small) signal degradation due to the

power supply from the DSP board is acceptable.

2.5 Configuration for DSP Connection With Supplied Software

The TLV320AIC23 EVM is compatible with the daughter-card connectors on

many TI DSP EVMs and DSKs. The following example is based on a

TMS320VC5402 DSK from Texas Instruments.

The supplied user software supports C54x DSPs on DSK/EVM boards with a

parallel-port interface.

For jumper connections regarding left and right positions, it is assumed users

are holding the TLV320AIC23 EVM so they can read the TI logo.

In order to use the TLV320AIC23 EVM with the DSP DSK, the DSP interface

must be selected:

 JU1: In, enable voltage regulators

 JU2: In, connect analog and digital ground planes

 JU3: In, select DSP interface

 JU4: Out, do not select SPDIF interface

 JU5: Right position, select internal headphone amplifier

control interface. The supplied user software uses the DSP format of the

AIC23/DAC23—FS + 32 bit data (16 bit left and 16 bit right channel) in master

mode for the digital audio interface. All the clock signals (BCLK, LRCIN,

LRCOUT) are generated by the data converter. McBSP1 is used in SPI mode.

2.6 Configuration for USB Connection With USB Audio Support

The TLV320AIC23 EVM is compatible with the daughter-card connectors on

many TI DSP EVMs and DSKs. The following example is based on a

TMS320VC5402 DSK from Texas Instruments.

The supplied AIC23 codec tester software does not use the USB interface. The

USB interface is used with the built-in USB audio class driver in Windows 98,

Windows 98 SE, and Windows 2000.

For jumper connections regarding left and right positions, it is assumed that

users are holding the TLV320AIC23 EVM so they can read the TI logo.

In order to use the TLV320AIC23 EVM with the DSP DSK, the DSP interface

must be selected:

 JU1: In, enables voltage regulators

 JU2: In, connects analog and digital ground planes

 JU3: Remove this jumper for USB mode.

 JU4: Out, do not select SPDIF interface.

 JU5: Right position, selects internal headphone amplifier

 JU6: Right position, selects internal headphone amplifier

 JU7: Right position, selects I

C control interface

 JU8: In, write-protects flash memory

After selecting the DSP interface, follow these steps:

1) Connect the USB cable to a PC and to the TLV320AIC23 EVM USB con-

nector. Connect a headphone or speakers to the headphone connector

(J10). No external power is needed, power is supplied via the USB con-

nection.

2) If the PC is running Windows 98, Windows 98 SE, or Windows 2000, it

recognizes the USB connection immediately after it is made. When

clicking on the speaker icon, the volume control menu comes up. In the

lower left hand of the volume menu the words USB device appear. This

assures users that the PC recognizes the TLV320AIC23 EVM as a USB

audio device.

3) Load an audio player. The media player included with Windows may be

used. Another player is Winamp, which may be downloaded from

http://www.winamp.com/

4) Load a music source file (MP3 or WAV). A source for music from the inter-

net can be found at http://shoutcast.com/

. Play the selected music

source.

5) The music is heard from the attached headphones or speakers.

Software Component Summary

3.1 Software Component Summary

The user software developed for the TLV320AIC23 EVM can be divided into

three main areas:

 Host GUI application

 DSP application

 Host software development support

The following paragraphs describe the components of each of these areas.

3.2 Host GUI Application

The host GUI application (aic23.exe) provides the user interface to control the

TLV320AIC23 EVM via the DSP application running on the C54x DSK/EVM.

When aic23.exe is executed, the menu bar will read

AIC23 Codec Tester

. The

host GUI application communicates with the DSP over the parallel port

interface.

The host GUI application supports both high-level user-friendly control of the

AIC23 and low-level register control of the AIC23. The main dialog controls

sample rate selection, playback (i.e., tone generation), playback and record

(i.e. loopback), and volume. Secondary dialogs are used to control the digital

and analog audio paths and to provide direct register access.

The host GUI application sends commands to the DSP application over the

C54x DSK/EVM parallel port interface. The DSP application modifies the

AIC23 state in response to the commands it receives.

3.3 DSP Application

The DSP application (aic23.out) runs on a C54x DSK/EVM. It initializes the

DSP and the DSK/EVM peripherals (McBSPs), it configures the AIC23, and

then it enters a command loop where it receives commands from the host GUI

application over the C54x DSK/EVM parallel port interface. Each command is

processed to completion and then it polls for the next command.

The supported commands are: RESET, TEST (host communication),

REG_WRITE, WRITE_ALL (e.g. registers), PLAY (a tone of specified

frequency), RECORD (AIC23 only) (e.g., playback and record), and STOP

(the current PLAY or RECORD (AIC23 only) command).

The PLAY and RECORD (AIC23 only) commands are DMA-driven via

callback routines that run continuously until a STOP command is received.

Host Software Development Support

3-3

Software Functional Overview

3.4 Host Software Development Support

The host software development support enables the host GUI application to

communicate with the DSP application running on the C54x DSK/EVM. This

support consists of an application-programming interface (API) DLL that

provides user-callable functions, and a set of drivers supporting access to the

hardware under Windows 9X, NT 4.0, or 2000.

The user-mode API is implemented in evmdsk54x.dll. This DLL provides a

common user-mode interface across all Win32 operating systems. The ring-3

DLL communicates with the driver that handles all the OS-specific details and

direct board accesses.

The hardware drivers are implemented in ppc54x.dll, dlportio.dll, and

dlportio.sys. These drivers handle the OS-specific details and provide a

consistent interface to the user-mode DLL. This arrangement allows host

applications to be executed on any Win32 platform without recompilation.
