Abstract:
1. A wireless audio client device, comprising: a set of peripherals, the set of peripherals includes a microphone, a speaker and an RF antenna; processing circuitry in communication with the set of peripherals, the processing circuitry establishes a first connection with a first master device and a second connection with a second master device, the first connection is concurrent with the second connection, the first connection comprises a first synchronization of a first clock of the processing circuitry to a clock of the first master device, the second connection comprises a second synchronization of a second clock of the processing circuitry to a clock of the second master device, and the processing circuitry uses the set of peripherals to bi-directionally and wirelessly communicate audio data with the first master device using a first communication protocol over the first connection according to the first synchronization, and to bi-directionally and wirelessly communicate audio data with the second master device using a second communication protocol over the second connection according to the second synchronization, the second communication protocol is incompatible with the first communication protocol; a microphone multiplexer including an input path to a microphone, and output paths to the processing circuitry, the microphone multiplexer is controllable based on at least one control mode of the processing circuitry; and a speaker multiplexer including an output path to a speaker, and input paths from the processing circuitry, the speaker multiplexer is controllable based on the at least one control mode of the processing circuitry.
