Using The Board (

Refer to Figure 2

)

Lab Equipment

The equipment, external supplies and signal sources 
needed to operate the board are listed below: 

1. +3V to 5V DC Power Supply

2. Stereo Audio Source (MP3/Radio/CD Player) or Audio 

Generator

3. Headphone Set or Audio Analyzer/Oscilloscope

4. Two standard High-speed USB cables

5. Computer with USB port

6. USB device (i.e. USB memory stick, MP3 Player with 

USB port, etc.)

Initial Board Setup Procedure

1. Attach the main evaluation board to a DC power supply 

at J10 (VDD) and J11 (GND). Positive terminal at J10 and 
negative terminal at J11. The supply should be capable of 
delivering 3V to 5V and 100

µA

 of current. Set the supply 

voltage to 3.3V.

2. Connect the stereo audio source left channel to J3 RCA 

connector or J5 BNC connector and right channel to J4 
RCA connector or J6 BNC connector.

3. Connect the USB device to the USB “B” type receptacle, 

J2 (USB TO DEVICE).

Audio Mode Operation

1. Install headphone in the headphone jack, J7. No USB 

cable should be connected at the J1 (USB TO HOST) 
connector. 

2. Logic Control: Put CTRL = Logic “1” and IN = Logic “0”. 

You will now be in Audio mode (2.4

Ω

 audio switches are 

ON).

3. Turn the audio source ON. You should hear the music in 

the headphones. 

4. You can observe the audio signals at the output of the IC 

on an oscilloscope or audio analyzer by using the J8 and 
J9 BNC connectors. Connect to J8 for Left audio and J9 
for right audio.

USB Mode Operation

1. Turn OFF audio stereo source.

2. Remove headphone from J7 Headphone Jack.

3. Logic Control: Put CTRL = Logic “X” and IN = Logic “1”. 

You will now be in USB mode (5.4

Ω

 USB switches are 

ON).

4. Connect USB cable from computer USB port to the USB 

“A” type receptacle, J1 (USB TO HOST) on the evaluation 
board. The computer should indicate that it is connected 
to the USB device connected at the J2 connector.

5. You will now be able to send and receive data between 

the computer and USB device.
