DS4201
060898 2/22
Digital–to–analog audio data processing supports 8 and
16 bit PCM stereo/mono formats at 44.1 KHz and 48.0
KHz sampling rates. Additionally, analog output mixing
of line and microphone inputs provide legacy and hybrid
speaker capabilities.
The DS4201 USB function core fully complies with both
the USB Specification v1.0 and the USB Device Class
Definition for Audio Devices v1.0. To complete the USB
capability of the DS4201, a USB compliant transceiver
is integrated to eliminate the need for any additional
support chips. Organization of the DS4201 in an USB
context is shown in Figure 2. For the USB enabled PC,
the DS4201 is an ideal digital output solution for high
quality audio and control within the speaker or monitor
enclosure. Its USB control and capabilities as well as its
high quality audio characteristics also comply with next
generation PC system and audio standards put forth by
industry leaders.

SIGNAL SUMMARY
SIGNAL NAME
TYPE
FUNCTION
D+
I/O
USB data – non–inverted signal of differential data pair.
D–
I/O
USB data – inverted signal of differential data pair.
SPM
I
Suspend Power Mode – controls device power configuration when a USB suspend
state is entered.
SUSO
O
Suspend Output – buffered USB suspend state output from USB device core. When
HIGH the USB is in an active non–suspended state, when LOW the USB has entered
a suspended state. This is an open drain output and requires a pull–up.
RMIC
I
Microphone right channel analog input to the analog output mixer.
LMIC
I
Microphone left channel analog input to the analog output mixer.
