ORDERING INFORMATION
CDB4271 Evaluation Board
Description
The CDB4271 demonstration board is an excellent
means for evaluating the CS4271 stereo CODEC. Eval-
uation requires an analog/digital signal source and
analyzer, and power supplies. Optionally, a Windows
®
PC compatible computer may be used to evaluate the
CS4271 in control port mode.
System timing can be provided by the CS4271, by the
CS8416 phase-locked to its S/PDIF input, by an I/O
stake header or by an on-board oscillator. RCA phono
jacks are provided for the CS4271 analog outputs and in-
puts. Digital data I/O is available via RCA phono or
optical connectors to the CS8416 and CS8406.
Microsoft Windows
®
software provides a GUI to make
configuration of the board easy. The software communi-
cates through the PC’s parallel port to configure the
hardware so that all features of the CS4271 can be eval-
uated. The evaluation board may also be configured to
accept external timing and data signals for operation in a
user application during system development.
