1 Introduction
The TLC320AD80 is an audio processing subsystem designed to meet the audio needs of a broad range
of set-top box applications. This device includes a high-performance stereo audio DAC, analog volume and
balance control, analog TV monaural decoder, de-emphasis filter, and an analog wide-band multiplexer.
The sigma-delta DAC performs data conversion with 85-dB performance. The architecture provides much
flexibility, giving the user the option to use all or a subset of the functional blocks.
There are two serial digital interfaces for digital audio data and four analog audio inputs. The analog output
of the device can be selected to be the output of the DAC, the output of the TV baseband filter, or
pass-through of one of the analog inputs.
The digital interfaces enable ease of use by providing compatibility with the industry standard I
2
S digital
audio port, and with the SPI
serial control interface. In addition, the digital audio interface supports
additional interface protocols.
