EVM WARNINGS AND RESTRICTIONS
It is important to operate this EVM within the absolute operating conditions shown in
Table 2−1.
Exceeding the specified input range may cause unexpected operation and/or irreversible
damage to the EVM. If there are questions concerning the input range, please contact a TI
field representative prior to connecting the input power.
Applying loads outside of the specified output range may result in unintended operation and/or
possible permanent damage to the EVM. Please consult the EVM User’s Guide prior to
connecting any load to the EVM output. If there is uncertainty as to the load specification,
please contact a TI field representative.
During normal operation, some circuit components may have case temperatures greater than
+70°C. The EVM is designed to operate properly with certain components above +70°C as
long as the input and output ranges are maintained. These components include but are not
limited to linear regulators, switching transistors, pass transistors, and current sense
resistors. These types of devices can be identified using the EVM schematic located in the
EVM User’s Guide. When placing measurement probes near these devices during operation,
please be aware that these devices may be very warm to the touch.

FCC Warning
This equipment is intended for use in a laboratory test environment only. It may
generate, use, or radiate radio frequency energy and has not been tested for
compliance with the limits of computing devices pursuant to sub−part J of part
15 of the FCC regulations, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against radio frequency interference. Operation of this equipment in other
environments may cause interference with radio communications, in which
case the user at his own expense will be required to take whatever measures
may be required to correct this interference.

This chapter provides a brief technical overview for the SRC4194 four-channel
audio asynchronous sample rate converter, as well as a general description
and feature list for the SRC4194EVM.
The SRC4194 is a four-channel, asynchronous sample rate converter
(ASRC), implemented as two stereo sections referred to as SRC A and SRC
B. Operation at input and output sampling frequencies up to 212kHz is
supported, with a continuous input/output sampling ratio range of 16:1 to 1:16.
Excellent dynamic range and THD+N are achieved by employing high
performance, linear phase digital filtering with better than 140dB of image
rejection. The digital filters provide settings for lower latency processing,
including low group delay options for the interpolation filter and a direct
down-sampling option for the decimation filter. Digital de-emphasis filtering is
also included, supporting 32kHz, 44.1kHz, and 48kHz input sampling
frequencies.
The audio input and output ports support standard audio data formats, as well
as a time division multiplexed (TDM) format. Word lengths of 24, 20, 18, and
16 bits are supported. Input and output ports may operate in Slave mode, deriving their word and bit clocks from external input and output devices. Alternatively, one port may operate in Master mode while the other remains in Slave
mode. In Master mode, the LRCK and BCK clocks are derived from the reference clock inputs, either RCKIA or RCKIB. The flexible configuration options
for the input and output ports allows connection to a variety of audio data converters, digital audio interface devices, and digital signal processors.
A bypass mode is included, which allows audio data to be passed directly from
the input port to the output port, bypassing the ASRC function. The bypass option is useful for passing through compressed or encoded audio data, as well
as non-audio data (that is, control or status information).
A soft mute function is available for the SRC4194 in both Hardware and Software modes. Digital output attenuation is available only in Software mode.
Both soft mute and digital attenuation functions provide artifact-free operation.
The mute attenuation is typically −144dB, while the digital attenuation function
is programmable from 0dB to −127.5dB in 0.5dB steps.
The SRC4194 includes a four-wire SPI port, which is used to access on-chip
control and status registers in Software mode. The SPI port facilitates interfacing to microprocessors or digital signal processors that support synchronous
serial peripherals. In Hardware (or Standalone) mode, dedicated control pins
are provided for the majority of the SRC4194 functions. These pins can be either hardwired or driven by logic or host control.

1.2SRC4194 Functional Block Diagram
Figure 1−1 shows a functional block diagram of the SRC4194. The SRC4194
is segmented into two stereo SRC sections referred to as SRC A and SRC B.
Each section can operate independently from the other. Each section has its
own set of configuration pins in Hardware mode, and its own bank of control
and status registers in Software mode.
SRC A and SRC B have identical operations. Audio data is received at the input serial port, clocked by either the audio source device in Slave mode, or by
the SRC4194 in Master mode. The output port data is clocked by either the
audio output device in Slave mode, or by the SRC4194 in Master mode. The
input data is passed through interpolation filters that up-sample the data,
which is then passed on to the re-sampler. The rate estimator compares the
input and output sampling frequencies by comparing LRCKI, LRCKO, and a
reference clock. The results of the rate estimation are used to configure the
re-sampler coefficients and data pointers.
The output of the re-sampler is passed on to either the decimation filter or
direct down-sampler function. The decimation filter performs down-sampling
and antialias filtering functions, and is required when the output sampling
frequency is equal to or lower than the input sampling frequency. The direct
down-sampling function does not provide any filtering, and may be used in
cases when the output sampling frequency is greater than the input sampling
frequency. The advantage of the direct down-sampling function is a significant
reduction in the group delay associated with the decimation function, allowing
lower latency processing.
