  • Application Note
    AN5073 Application note Receiving S/PDIF audio stream with the STM32F4/F7/H7 Series Introduction The Sony/Philips Digital Interface Format (S/PDIF) is a point-to-point protocol for serial and uni-directional transmission of digital audio through a single transmission line for consumer and professional applications. The transmission of data can be done in several ways, by electrical or optical means. The S/PDIFRX peripheral embedded in STM32 devices is designed to receive an S/PDIF flow compliant with IEC-60958 and IEC-61937, which define the physical implementation requirements as well as the coding and the protocol. These standards support simple stereo streams up to high sample rates, and compressed multi-channel surround sound, such as those defined by Dolby or DTS. This application note describes electrical interfaces, to properly connect the S/PDIF stream generated by an external device to an STM32 device embedding the S/PDIFRX interface peripheral, since the voltage level of the S/PDIF line is not the same as that used in STM32 devices.

AN5073 S/PDIF Interface 1 S/PDIF Interface This document applies to Arm®-based devices. Note: Arm is a registered trademark of Arm Limited (or its subsidiaries) in the US and/or elsewhere. 1.1 S/PDIF background S/PDIF is an audio interface for transmission of digital audio data over reasonably short distances between modules of systems such as home theaters or hi-fi. S/PDIF is a single-wire serial uni-directional, self-clocking interface.

    AES47-2006 (r2011) AES standard for digital audio — Digital input-output interfacing — Transmission of digital audio over asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks Published by Audio Engineering Society, Inc. Copyright ©2005 by the Audio Engineering Society Preview only Abstract This document specifies the method of carrying multiple channels of audio in linear PCM or AES3 format in calls across an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) network to ensure interoperability. The specification includes the method of conveying information concerning the format and sampling frequency of the digital audio signal when setting up the calls. An AES standard implies a consensus of those directly and materially affected by its scope and provisions and is intended as a guide to aid the manufacturer, the consumer, and the general public. The existence of an AES standard does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether or not he or she has approved the document, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not in agreement with the standard. Prior to approval, all parties were provided opportunities to comment or object to any provision. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this AES standard or information document may be the subject of patent rights. AES shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patents. Approval does not assume any liability to any patent owner, nor does it assumewww.aes.org/standards any obligation whatever to parties adopting the standards document. This document is subject to periodic review and users are cautioned to obtain the latest printing. Recipients of this document are invited to submit, with their comments, notification of any relevant patent rights of which they are aware and to provide supporting documentation.

  • DPP Technical Delivery Standards
    TECHNICAL STANDARDS FOR DELIVERY OF TELEVISION PROGRAMMES TO This document is a complete guide to the common technical standards agreed by the BBC, BTSport, Channel 4, Channel 5, ITV, Sky, S4C and TG4. The first three pages of this document outline parts of the specification that are unique to TG4. The main body of the document outlines the main DPP specification as adopted by all members. The Standards include: Technical Specifications, i.e. the technical production methods which must be used, and the parameters which all material must meet to be acceptable by the broadcasters. Picture and Sound Quality requirements, which also form a binding obligation on producers of material. Assessment of quality is by nature subjective, and is highly dependent on the nature of the programme. Some of the Quality Requirements are expressed in relative terms (“reasonable”, “not excessive” etc), and it will be necessary to make a judgement as to whether the quality expectations of the intended audience will be fulfilled, and whether the broadcaster will feel that value for money has been achieved. Delivery Requirements, which specify the form and layout of the programme material. Every programme submitted for transmission must satisfy a Quality Control process specified by the Broadcaster. Any programme failing the QC process on tape or file may be rejected and returned to the supplier for repair. Please ensure you are using the current version of this document, available at: http://www.tg4.ie/en/production/guidelines.html Technical Responsibility and Contacts TG4 is required to ensure that for all broadcast programmes technical quality is maintained to a satisfactory standard.
