VL-ADR-01 Reference Manual   

 

 

Overview 

The VL-ADR-01 is a USB-to-audio adapter board.  The board uses a Texas Instruments 
PCM2906C codec to bring audio capabilities to embedded single board computers lacking audio 
capabilities.  As shown in Figure 3, the board provides the following controls and outputs: 

 

Three volume control switches (Volume Up, Volume Down, and Mute) 

 

Two 3.5 mm line-level audio connectors (stereo line input and stereo line output) 

 

One 12-pin (2x6) 2 mm connector for off-board routing of controls, inputs, and outputs  

 

 

Integrator’s Note:

 

 

The stereo line level output is limited to driving a 10 kΩ impedance load.  This output should be 
connected to an external amplifier to drive either headphones or speakers. 

Ordering Information 

 

VL-ADR-01S, temperature range of -25 ºC to +85 ºC  

Accessories 

The board connects to a host using a 0.5 m, USB 2.0 A plug to Micro-B plug cable, VersaLogic 
part number VL-CBR-0503. 

Dimensions 

Figure 1 shows the dimensions of the VL-ADR-01.

Operating System Support 

The VL-ADR-01 is compatible with standard USB audio driver code, typically embedded within an 
operating system.  No additional driver software is needed or supplied with the VL-ADR-01.
