Hardware Overview
The evaluation kit consists of the TLV320ADCx140EVB daughterboard and the AC-MB motherboard. The
motherboard is used to provide power, control, and digital audio signals to the evaluation module. The
daughterboard contains the TLV320ADCx140 device and its input connections. A detailed functional
overview of the TLV320ADCx140EVB system is described in
.

Audio Serial Interface Settings
The AC-MB provides the digital audio digital signals to the evaluation module from the universal serial bus
(USB), optical, stereo jack, and external audio serial interface (ASI) header.

Switch SW2 on the AC-MB selects the audio serial bus that interfaces with the TLV320ADC5140EVB.
Next to switch SW2, the AC-MB has a quick reference table to identify the audio serial interface source
options and switch settings. The AC-MB acts as the master for the audio serial interface, with three
different modes of operation (see
): USB, optical or analog, or external ASI.
