Abstract:
1. A method for extracting selected time information from a stream of serialized Audio Engineering Society (AES) digital audio data, comprising: detecting, by a broadcast router, a first transition indicative of a first preamble of said stream of serialized AES digital audio data; detecting, by the broadcast router, a second transition indicative of a subsequent preamble of said serialized AES digital audio data, wherein said second transition is detected by counting transitions after the first transition where said first transition and said second transition are separated by thirty-one intervening transitions, wherein said thirty-one intervening transitions are not indicative of said subsequent preamble of said serialized AES digital audio data; determining a clock pulse count separating said first preamble and said subsequent preamble; and transferring the determined clock pulse count to a decoding logic circuit for decoding said stream of serialized AES digital audio data by utilizing the determined clock pulse count.
