The TAS5122DCA PurePath Digital customer evaluation module demonstrates two integrated circuits (IC), the TAS5001 and the TAS5122DCA from Texas Instruments. The TAS5001 is a high performance 24-bit stereo digital modulator based on Equibit technology. This IC converts input PCM serial digital audio data to a pulse width modulated (PWM) audio data stream.
DAP control through PC software (DCT software from Texas Instruments) Default DAP settings is downloaded to an EEPROM with the DCT software Analog line input (use internal analog-to-digital converter in DAP) Analog line output (use internal digital-to-analog converter in DAP) Figure 1−1.

TAS5001−5122C2EVM Features The TAS3002 IC from Texas Instruments is used as digital audio processor (DAP). All features in the DAP can be controlled through the I S interface. Adjustment of the sound level can be executed through the I C bus and with two push buttons on the EVM board.
Chapter 2 Detailed Description of the EVM This chapter describes the TAS5001−5122C2EVM board in regards to board layout, jumpers, switches, buttons, and connectors. Topic Page Board Overview ..........Description of Jumper Settings .
Description of Jumper Settings 2.2 Description of Jumper Settings There are three jumpers on the EVM board (J400 is an I S interface) 2.2.1 Double−Speed Control (JMP120) JMP120 is used to set the double-speed pin at TAS5001 (DBSPD, pin 39). The TAS5001 is operating in single-speed mode if the DBSPD pin is asserted low and in double-speed if it is asserted high.

Description of Switches and Buttons 2.5 Description of Switches and Buttons 2.5.1 S/PDIF Input Selector Switch (S100) S100 switches between optical and coaxial S/PDIF input. When the lever is pressed in the direction of J101, the optical S/PDIF input is selected. When the lever is pressed in the direction of J100, the coaxial S/PDIF input is selected.
Description of Indicators 2.6 Description of Indicators 2.6.1 Power LED (LED223) The green LED indicates that the control circuitry at the TAS5001− 5122C2EVM board is powered on. 2.6.2 No S/PDIF Input LED (LED222) The yellow LED indicates that the S/PDIF input signal is missing or it does not contain valid audio data.

Power Supply 3.1 Power Supply The TAS5001−5122C2EVM can be powered from one or two external power supplies. High-end audio performance requires a stabilized power supply with low ripple voltage and low output impedance. Note: The length of the power supply cable must be minimized. Increasing the length of the PSU cable is equal to increasing the distortion for the amplifier at high output levels and low frequencies.
Setup the TAS5001−5122C2EVM With the S/PDIF Input 3.2 Setup the TAS5001−5122C2EVM With the S/PDIF Input Connect the EVM board as shown in Figure 3−2. Select between coaxial or optical input signal at the input selector switch (S100). Press the lever at S320 in the direction of U360 if the TAS3002 DAP is wanted in the signal path (recommended during normal listening tests).
Setup the TAS5001−5122C2EVM With the Analog Line Input 3.2.1 Start-up Sequence 1) Turn on the power supply/supplies. Follow the power-up and power-down sequence described in the Power Supply section. Observe that the green Power ON LED and the yellow No S/PDIF LED are lit. 2) Run the DCT software from the PC desktop if the DAP is activated (S320) and the attached cable is connected from J300 to the PC.
Chapter 4 Hints for Measurement of Performance Read the Digital Audio Measurements application note (SLAA114) for an introduction to measurements on true digital audio amplifiers. You are welcome to use the audio precision test files available on the PurePath Digital amplifier CD−ROM. Note that an AES17 filter is required to reach the shown measurements.
