Analog audio output
A total of eight single-ended analog output channels are provided via four 3.5mm stereo
jacks. The 8 analog outputs are generated by four 2 channel DACs (PCM5122). The DACs
are configured to accept digital audio over I2S or TDM. Configuration of the DACs is via
I2C. The full scale output level is 2.1Vrms.
The four digital input channels ADC_D0 to ADC_D3 are mapped to the xCORE outputs
X_DAC_D0 to X_DAC_D3 through a header array as described in Figure
. Basic jumper
operation allows configuring the device to work in I2S or TDM mode. In I2S mode, each
wire carries 2 channels of audio so the 8 analog output channels map 1:1 to the four digital
outputs. In TDM mode, a single wire can carry up to 8 channels of data. This means the
four xCORE digital outputs can support up to 32 analog output channels. The jumpers
