1.3.1.
SoundWire bus connector
The SoundWire signals (clock and data) are available on a boxed IDC 16 pin header connector
with a regular pitch of 2.54 mm (0.1”). The bottom pins are all connected to ground.
The data line bus keepers cannot be controlled individually. Either all ON or all OFF.
1.3.2.
Multi-purpose connector
The signals (clock and data) are available on a boxed IDC 20 pin header connector with a regular
pitch of 2.54 mm (0.1”). The bottom pins are all connected to ground.
This connector serves multiple purposes. It features an I2C interface that can either acts as a
slave or as a master (not implemented yet). There is a dedicated trigger input pin. Six of the
seven general purpose input pins can be reassigned to a multichannel PDM input & output
interface or a multichannel PCM input or output.
