Table 2 - Control States - Register A
Control Registers A, B
The contents of these registers control the filter/codec functions as described in Tables 2 and 3.
Bit 7 of the registers is the MSB and is defined as the first bit of the serial data stream input (corresponding to the
sign bit of the PCM word).
On initial power-up these registers are set to the powerdown condition for a maximum of 25 clock cycles. During
this time it is impossible to change the data in these registers.
Chip Testing
By enabling Register B with valid data (eight-bit control word input to CSTi when F1i=GNDD and CA= VCC) the chip
testing mode can be entered. Bits 6 and 7 (most sign bits) define states for testing the transmit filter, receive filter
and the codec function. The input in each case is VX input and the output in each case is VR output. (See Table 3 for
details.)
Loopback
Loopback of the filter/codec is controlled by the control word entered into Register A. Bits 6 and 7 (most sign bits)
provide either a digital or analog loopback condition. Digital loopback is defined as follows:
•
PCM input data at DSTi is latched into the PCM input register and the output of this register is connected to
the input of the 3-state PCM output register.
•
•
The digital input to the PCM digital-to-analog decoder is disconnected, forced to zero (0).
The output of the PCM encoder is disabled and thus the encoded data is lost. The PCM output at DSTo is
determined by the PCM input data.
Analog loopback is defined as follows:
•
•
•
•
PCM input data is latched, decoded and filtered as normal but not output at VR.
Analog output buffer at VR has its input shorted to GNDA and disconnected from the receive filter output.
Analog input at VX is disconnected from the transmit filter input.
The receive filter output is connected to the transmit filter input. Thus the decode signal is fed back through
the receive path and encoded in the normal way. The analog output buffer at VR is not tested by this
configuration.
In both cases of loopback, DSTi is the input and DSTo is the output.
