This document describes a reference design platform for the Cirrus Logic
CS7410, known as the CRD7410-CD18. It is an evaluation platform for a basic
portable CD player. The CRD7410-CD18 platform provides a low-cost yet
complete solution for today’s popular digital music formats (CDDA, MP3,
WMA, VCD, AVCD, and SVCD). The platform also supports poprular music
playlist formats such as MP3, M4U, PLS, B4S, and RMP. The system’s small
size, light weight, and low power consumption allow designers to integrate
powerful features into a very inexpensive portable device. The design is also
easily adapted to small bookshelf systems.
All components necessary for a portable CDDA/MP3/WMA/VCD/AVCD/SVCD
application, including a 4-line LCD display, are incorporated into a single PCB.
Debug capability is provided adjacent to the main circuitry. In a final design,
the I2C debug and Romulator ports could easily be eliminated, leaving only
the circuitry required for the application. Refer to Figure 1-1.
Cirrus Logic provides the system as a complete solution. Schematics and
Gerber data files for the PCB are available.

1.1.1 Main Subsystems
The CRD7410-CD18 has seven main subsystems. They are:
This system uses the Cirrus Logic CS7410 for main control and audio decode.
(See U6 in Figure 1-3, below.)
A Flash/ROM is used for application code. (See U7 in Figure 1-3, below.)
An SDRAM is provided for Electronic Shock Protection (ESP). (See U8 in
Figure 1-3, below.)

1.2.2 Audio Subsystem
CRD7410-CD18 Board Architecture
1.2.2.1 Internal DAC
An integrated Sigma-Delta based DAC (Digital-to-Analog-Converter) allows
the designer to build a low cost DAC with a simple RC integration circuit. In
such a design, proper layout permits greater than 80 dB SNR.
1.2.2.2 Subsystem Design Details
Figure 1-4 shows the details of the implementation of this subsystem design.
This list below defines the semiconductor devices and connectors used in this
subsystem, and the function of each.
The User Interface Subsystem has two sections: the LCD (Liquid Crystal
Display) and the Button and Switch Matrix. (See Figure 1-5 and Figure 1-6,
below for details.)
1.2.3.1 LCD Display
Figure 1-5 shows a close-up view of the LCD, which is part of the User
Interface Subsystem.
The LCD display (reference designator - DSP1) is a 64 x 128 pixel display. For
a dot matrix character size of 8 x 6, this gives 21 characters per line, by 8 lines
per display.

1.2.3.2 Button and Switch Matrix
Figure 1-6 shows a close-up view of the Button and Switch Matrix, which is
part of the User Interface Subsystem.
User inputs are implemented with 12 push buttons. There is one switch for
power On/Off (when power is supplied by the battery).
Table 1-1 shows the functions of the pushbuttons and switch shown in
Figure 1-6.
