Title: Slave mode transmit with zero delay for audio interface
Inventor: WARREN DAVID S
IPC: H04J3/00
Filed: 2012-08-21
Abstract: An apparatus includes a first unit and a second functional units operating in a master-slave configuration. The first and second functional units operate as a master and 5 slave, respectively. The first functional unit conveys clock and framing signals to the second functional unit. The second functional unit includes a buffer and a multiplexer having inputs coupled to the buffer. Digital audio data may be prefetched into the buffer. When a controller of the second functional unit detects assertion of the framing signal, it may cause a change of state to a selection signal provided to the multiplexer. Responsive 1o thereto, the multiplexer selects an input coupled to receive, from the buffer, a next frame of data to be transmitted. A first bit of the frame is transmitted to the first functional unit on the same clock cycle in which assertion of the framing signal was detected. Li-L ULi --
