• Description: Bluecore 4-rom CSP EDR Single Chip Bluetooth v2.0 + EDR System
• Manufacturer: ETC

11.7
Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) is a standard method used to digitise audio (particularly voice) patterns for
transmission over digital communication channels. Through its PCM interface, BlueCore4-ROM CSP has
hardware support for continual transmission and reception of PCM data, so reducing processor overhead for
wireless headset applications. BlueCore4-ROM CSP offers a bi-directional digital audio interface that routes
directly into the baseband layer of the on-chip firmware. It does not pass through the HCI protocol layer.
Hardware on BlueCore4-ROM CSP allows the data to be sent to and received from a SCO connection.
Up to three SCO connections can be supported by the PCM interface at any one time
BlueCore4-ROM CSP can operate as the PCM interface Master generating an output clock of 128, 256 or
512kHz. When configured as PCM interface slave it can operate with an input clock up to 2048kHz.
BlueCore4-ROM CSP is compatible with a variety of clock formats, including Long Frame Sync, Short Frame
Sync and GCI timing environments.
It supports 13 or 16-bit linear, 8-bit μ-law or A-law companded sample formats at 8ksamples/s, and can receive
and transmit on any selection of three of the first four slots following PCM_SYNC. The PCM configuration options
are enabled by setting the PS Key PS KEY_PCM_CONFIG.
BlueCore4-ROM CSP interfaces directly to PCM audio devices including the following:
Note:
11.7.1 PCM Interface Master/Slave
When configured as the Master of the PCM interface, BlueCore4-ROM CSP generates PCM_CLK and
PCM_SYNC.
When configured as the Slave of the PCM interface, BlueCore4-ROM accepts PCM_CLK rates up to 2048kHz.
