    • Buffered audio serial port output supports connection to external DSP hardware or audio test equipment • An onboard Texas Instruments DIT4096 provides an AES3-encoded digital output suitable for use with audio test systems or commercial audio equipment, supporting output sampling rates up to 108kHz •...
  • Page 4 TRS input plug. The analog input is buffered and filtered using a low noise input circuit, utilizing a Texas Instruments' OPA2134 dual audio op amp IC. The output of the buffer circuit is connected to the differential input of the PCM4201, which is then used to convert the analog signal to a 24-bit linear PCM representation in the digital domain.
  • Page 5: Getting Started

    Failure to observe proper ESD handling precautions may result in damage to EVM components. Many of the components used in the assembly of the PCM4201EVM are susceptible to damage by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Customers are advised to observe proper ESD handling procedure when unpacking and handling the PCM4201EVM.
  • Page 6: Hardware Description And Configuration

    +2.0V. Analog Input The PCM4201EVM includes a Neutrik combo XLR connector (J1), which accepts either a 3-pin male XLR or a 1/4-inch TRS phono plug. The analog input can accept up to a 18.5V differential input signal. This signal is then attenuated by a factor of 3.7 by the input buffer circuit, which corresponds to the 5.0V...

    (SCKI) is also available at the audio serial port. The audio serial port may be operated in Slave or Master Mode. In Slave Mode, the BCK, FSYNC, and SCKI clocks are inputs to the PCM4201EVM, and may be provided from an external source (DSP, FPGA, etc.) via header J3. The BCK and FSYNC clocks must be synchronous with one another and the audio data.
  • Page 9: Transmitter Reset Circuitry

    512f Reset Operations The PCM4201EVM includes two reset switches, SW2 and SW3. Both are momentary contact, normally open pushbutton switches. Switch SW2 provides the manual reset for the PCM4201, while switch SW3 provides the manual reset the DIT4096 digital interface transmitter.
