Introduction
This is the VS1063a Programmer’s Guide. Its intent is to provide the reader with a sufficient
amount of information to write programs for VS1063a.
Programs can be written either as plugins which function in cooperation with VS1063a’s existing
decoder framework as shown in Chapter 5, or as applications that take over the whole system
as shown in Chapter 6.
Finally, some audio format specific comments are presented in Chapter 7.
Future versions of this document will also discuss ROM functions and VS1063a startup.

Disclaimer
The VS10xx Programmer’s Guide represents VLSI Solution’s best attempt at giving a VS1063a
programmer as much information as possible to help creating their own plugins and applica-
tions. Nevertheless, this guide is still highly
preliminary
and very much in a state of flux. It will
be made more comprehensive and accurate over time.
VLSI Solution is not responsible for any errors, omissions, or misleading statements in this
document.
This guide is the third part of a three-part entity, consisting of
VS1063a Datasheet
,
VS1063a
Hardware Guide
, and
VS1063a Programmer’s Guide
. To avoid repetition, it is assumed that
the reader of this guide has already familiarized himself with the other two documents.
