The block diagram below shows the audio path:
The HERMES provides the following audio connections:
- Microphone in (Connection for up to two external microphones (single ended )
- ECall Speaker output (Connection for an external eCall speaker 10W (differential))
It is possible to configure the microphone inputs as single ended or differential. For converting the
analogue microphone lines and to feed the analogue power-amplifier it is necessary to have an AD-
DA converter. The Hermes uses for this purpose the stereo Audio CODEC from TI
The following requirements have to be fulfilled and adjusted by the CODEC.
Digital Audio Interface:

- Sync: 8kHz
- Frame: Short frame
- Data format: 16Bit MSB first
- Mode: Slave
Line out:

Microphone in:
- Type: single ended
- Input level: 0,707Veff max.
- Mic1R: Left channel, max. Gain

eCall speaker:
- 10W class D power amplifier. The amplifier is only used in case of an eCall.
- The audio downlink path from the NAD is directly connected to the power amplifier.
