The following sections describe the hardware platforms that support development
with the XMOS USB Audio software framework.
2.1
xCORE-200 Multi-Channel Audio Board
The XMOS xCORE-200 Multi-channel Audio board
8
(XK-AUDIO-216-MC) is a com-
plete hardware and reference software platform targeted at up to 32-channel USB
and networked audio applications, such as DJ decks and mixers.
The Multichannel Audio Platform hardware is based around the XE216-512-TQ128
multicore microcontroller; an dual-tile xCORE-200 device with an integrated High
Speed USB 2.0 PHY, RGMII (Gigabit Ethernet) interface and 16 logical cores deliver-
ing up to 2000MIPS of deterministic and responsive processing power.
Exploiting the flexible programmability of the xCORE-200 architecture, the Multi-
channel Audio Platform supports either USB or network audio source, streaming 8
analogue input and 8 analogue output audio channels simultaneously - at up to
192kHz. Ideal for mixing two sources and providing main and headphone monitor
output feeds.
