9.2.18 Side Tone
In some applications it is necessary to implement side tone. This side tone function involves feeding a properly
gained microphone signal in to the DAC stream, e.g. earpiece. The side tone routing selects the version of the
microphone signal from before or after the digital gain in the ADC interface and adds it to the output signal before
or after the digital gain of the DAC interface, see Figure 9.8.

The ADC provides simple gain to the side tone data. The gain values range from -32.6dB to 12.0dB in alternating
steps of 2.5dB and 3.5dB, see Table 9.5.
