PCM_SYNC

PCM data frame

synchronization signal

1.8V power domain.

PCM_CLK

PCM data bit clock

1.8V power domain.
In master mode, it is an output
signal. In slave mode, it is an
input signal.
If unused, keep it open.

I2C_SCL

I2C serial clock

Used for external codec.

Require an external pull-up to

1.8V.

I2C_SDA

I2C serial data

The clock and mode can be configured by AT command, and the default configuration is master mode

using short frame synchronization format with 2048kHz PCM_CLK and 8kHz PCM_SYNC. Please refer to

document [2]

for details about

AT+QDAI

command.

1. It is recommended to reserve an RC (R=22

Ω, C=22pF) circuit on the PCM lines, especially for

PCM_CLK.

2. EM12-G works as a master device pertaining to I2C interface.
