Description

The STA321MP is a PDM high-performance

multichannel processor with ultra-low quiescent

current designed for general-purpose digital

microphone app lications. The device is fully

digital a nd is comprised of three main sections.

The first section is the PDM input interface which

can accept up to six ser i al digi tal inputs. The

second section is a high-quality audio processor

allowing flexible channel mixing/m uxing and

provides up to 10 biquads for general sound

equalization and voice enhancement with

independent volume control. The last block is the

I²S output interface which streams out the

processed dig i tal audio. The out pu t inte rf ace can

also be programmed for flexible channel

mapping. The device offers some of the most

commonly require d audio enhan cemen t s such as

programmable voice tuning and equalization,

limiter/compressor for improved voice quality,

multiband selection for customizable microphone

usage and configu rable wind-noise r ejection. The

embedded digital processor allows offloading the

microphone processing from the main CPU or

SoC, moving it to the device.

The STA321MP has six digit al microphone input s,

providing connections for up to three dual-

membrane microphones.

3 Microphone interface

3.1 PDM clock generator (for microphones)

In order to correctly st art up the device in the m icrophone pr ocessor mode, it is nece ssary to

set registers 0x00 to 0x9B and register 0x5D to 0x01.

The CKOUT pin can be used to properly provide a clock source for digital microphones.

When the mikemode bit is asserted (reg 0x5D bit 0), the CKOUT generator is automatically

configured in order to generate a clock with sys_clk/32 frequency (corresponding to a PDM

oversampling rate of 64).

For example, considering a base sample frequency of:

Fs = 44.1 kHz

XTI = 11.289 MHz (user provided)

System clock = 90.3168 MHz (system generated)

Clock out = 2.8224 MHz (system generated)

Fs = 48.0 kHz

XTI = 12.288 MHz (user provided)

System clock= 98.304 MHz (system generated)

Clock out = 3.072 MHz (system generated)

Technical details

The clock generator creates two output clocks with the same frequency, CKOUT270

has a 270 degrees phase shift with respect to CKOUT. One is exported outside the device

and used to clock the micro phones, the other is used internally to clock the PDM interface of

the STA321MP.

3.2 PDM resampling interface

The PDM resampling interface is used to properly sample external data.

It can work in three different modes: Compatibility mode, Dual-membrane and Advanced. In

each mode data are sampled at the rising or falling edge.

Table 9. Modes for PDM resampling interface

Compatibility mode

In this mode every channel is sampled at th e rising edge.

Dual-membrane mode

The dual-membrane mode is a particular configuration (automatically applied when the

proper bit is asserted) which permits the use of the dual-membrane microphone. In

particular it has 2 PDM data channels (normal and high) muxed in a single wire. The normal

channel is sampled at the falling edge, while the high channel is sampled at the rising edge.

Advanced mode

In this mode every channel can be sampled at the rising or falling edge according to the

configuratio n re gis te r.

3.3 PDM recombination (dual-membrane microphone support)

Dual microphone scenario:

A dual-membrane microphone has two separate PDM signal paths:

Normal channel for moderate SPL (Sound Pressure Level) acoustic signals

High channel for high SPL acoustic signals

The sensitivity of the high channel is configurable and is set by default to 20 dBSPL lower

than the sensitivity of the normal channe l in order to avoid saturatio n in any part of th e signal

path.

The two channels can be combined together in order to enlarge the dynamic range and

have a good trade-of f between the DNR and the noise floor (which is lower in the case of the

normal channel).

The main functional ity is based on a signal level measur ement and a du al-threshold syste m.

If the signal of the normal channel is:

above the upper threshold (TH_H), the output will be taken from the high channel

under the lower threshold (TH_N), the output will be taken from the normal channel

between TH_H and TH_N, the output will be a combination of the high and normal

channels.

3.4 Low-pass filter

A filter is provided (and needed) in order to suppress the noise outside the audio band that

may be still present before the recombination stage.

The filter is a 2nd order IIR (Infinite Impulse Response) low-pass with a cutoff frequency of

20 kHz and it can be bypassed th ro ug h th e I 2C bit.

3.5 Sensitivity adjustment

The sensitivity adjustment control can be used to compensate the differences between the

theoretical an d the re al sen sitivity. It is applied to all the mem bra ne s of th e mic ro ph on e.

Configuration registers: 0x5F(5-0), 0x60(5-0), 0x61(5-0)

3.6 Normal channel attenuation

The NORM_Att is a parameter must be set to the sensitivity difference between the High

SPL channel and the Norm al SPL ch an n el. By defa ult its value is set to 20 dB.

Configuration registers: 0x52(5-0), 0x63(5-0), 0x64(5-0)

3.7 Thresholds

The two thresholds can be configured in order to control/select the recombination engine

behavior. In particular they can be used to give more weight (in the final output) to the

Normal Channel or to the High Channel which will lead to choose the trade-off between

having lower distortion (High Channel) or lower noise floor (Normal Channel).

Configuration registers: 0x65(5-0), 0x66(5-0), 0x67(5-0), 0x68(5-0), 0x69(5-0), 0x6A(5-0)

I2C bus operation STA321MP

20/84 DocID022647 Rev 5

4 I2C bus operation

The STA321MP supports the I2C protocol via the input ports SCL and SDA_IN (master to

slave) and the output port SDA_OUT (slave to master).

This protocol defines any device that sends data on to the bus as a transmitter and any

device that read s th e da ta as a receive r.

The device that controls the da ta transfer is kn own as the master a nd the other as the slave.

The master always starts the transfer and provides the serial clock for synchronization. The

STA321MP is always a slave device in all of its communications.

4.1 Communication protocol

4.1.1 Data transition or change

Data changes on the SDA line must only occur when the SCL clock is low. An SDA

transition while the clock is high is used to identify a START or STOP condition.

4.1.2 Start condition

START is identified by a high-to-low trans itio n of the da ta bus SDA signal while the clock

signal SCL is stable in the high state. A START condition must precede any command for

data transfer.

4.1.3 Stop condition

STOP is identified by a low-to-high transition of the data bus SDA signal while the clock

signal SCL is stable in the high state . A STOP co ndition terminates communication b etween

the STA321MP and the bus master.

4.1.4 Data input

During the data input the STA321MP samples the SDA signal on the rising edge of clock

SCL.

For correct device operation the SDA signal must be stable during the rising edge of the

clock and the data can change only when the SCL line is low.

4.2 Device addressing

To start communication between the master and the Omega FFX core, the master must

initiate with a start condition. Following this, the master sends 8 bit s onto th e SDA line (MSB

first) corresponding to the device select address and r ead or write mode.

The 7 most significant bits are the device address identifie rs, corresponding to the I2C bus

definition. In the STA321MP the I2C interface has two device addresses depending on the

SA port configuration, 0x40 o r 0100000 x when SA = 0 , and 0x42 or 0100001x wh en SA = 1.

The 8th bit (LSB) identifies read or write operation RW , this bit is set to 1 in read mode and 0

for write mode. After a START condition the STA321MP identifies on the bus the device

DocID022647 Rev 5 21/84

STA321MP I2C bus operation

address and if a match is found, it acknowledges the identification on SDA bus during the

9th-bit time. The byte following the device identification byte is the internal space address.

4.3 Write operation

Following the START condition the master sends a device select code with th e RW bit set

to 0. The STA321MP acknowledges this and the writes for the byte of internal address.

After receiving th e internal byte address the STA321MP again responds with an

acknowledgement.

4.3.1 Byte write

In the byte write mode the master sends one dat a byte, this is ackno wledged by the Omega

FFX core. The master then terminates the tran sfer by generating a STOP condition.

4.3.2 Multi-byte write

The multi-byte write modes can start from any internal address. The master generating a

STOP condition terminates the transfer.

4.4 Read operation

4.4.1 Current address byte read

Following the START condition, the master sends a device select code with the RW bit set

to 1. The STA321MP acknowledges this and then responds by sending one byte of data.

The master then terminates the transfer by generating a STOP condition.

4.4.2 Current address multi-byte read

The multi-byte read modes can start from any internal address. Sequential data bytes are

read from sequentia l addresses within the STA321MP. The master acknowledges each dat a

byte read and then generates a STOP condition, terminating the transfer.

4.4.3 Random address byte read

Following the START condition, the master sends a device select code with the RW bit set

to 0. The STA321MP acknowledges this and then the master writes the internal address

byte. After receiving the internal byte address, the STA321MP again responds with an

acknowledgement. The master then initiates another START condition and sends the de vice

select code with the RW bit set to 1. The STA321MP acknowledges this and then responds

by sending one byte of data. The master then ter minate s th e transfer by ge nerating a STOP

condition.

4.4.4 Random address multi-byte read

The multi-byte read mode can start from any internal address. Sequential data bytes are

read from sequentia l addresses within the STA321MP. The master acknowledges each dat a

byte read and then generates a STOP condition, terminating the transfer.

The internal clock depends on the external clock freq. provided to the XTI pin. It can be

either 90.3168 MHz or 98.304 MHz in case of XTI is r espectively 11.2896MHz or

12.288MHz.

The relationship between the input clock XTI and the PDM interface clock is determined

by both the MCSn and the IRn (input rate) register bits. IR[1,0] = 11 sets the PDM

interface enable and MCS[2:0]=011 means XTI=4*PDM interface clock.

If XTI input is not used, related pin must be tied to GND.

cos [1,0] sets the clock out value; clock out frequency is a ratio of the internal clock, su ch

ratio depends on the cos[1,0] setting.

Example cos[1,0] =10:

XTI = 12.288

PLL output = 98.304 MHz

CK_out = 98.304 / 8 = 12.288

Clock out is automatically configured in order to obtain a frequency of 64 Fs (sys_clock/32)

if the bit0 of the register 0x5D is asserted. This generates a valid clock to be provided to a

digital (PDM) microphone.

STA321MP Registers

5.2.2 Configuration register C (0x02) - serial output formats

The STA321MP features a serial audio output interface that consists of 8 channels. The

serial audio output always acts as a slave to the serial audio input interface and, therefore,

all output clocks are synchronous with the input clocks. The output sampling frequency (fs)

is also equivalent to the input sa mpling frequency. In the case of PDM input, the serial audio

output acts as a master with an ou tput sampling freque ncy of 8 xfs, 4 xfs or fs depe nding on

SAOD4 bit. The output serial format can be selected independently from the input format

and is done via the SAO and SAOFB bits.

inverse.

5.2.5 Configuration register F (0x05)

The STA321MP features an internal digital high-pass filter for the purpose of AC coupling.

The purpose of this filter is to prevent DC signals fr om passing through an FFX amplifier . DC

signals can cause speaker damage.

If HPB = 1, then the filter that the high-pass filter utilizes is made available as user-

programmable biquad #1.

Both limiters can be used in on e of two ways, anti-clipping or dynamic range compression.

When used in anti-clipping mode, the limiter threshold values are constant and dependent

on the limiter settings.

In dynamic range compression mode, the limiter threshold values vary with th e volume

settings allowing a nighttime listening mode that provides a reduction in the dynamic range

regardless of the volume level.

By setting this bit to one de-emphasis will be implemented on all channels. When this is

used it ta kes the place of biquad #7 in each channe l and any coefficients using biquad #1

will be ignored. The DSPB (DSP bypass) bit must be set to 0 for de-emphasis to function.

Post-scale functionality can be used for power-supply error correction. For multi-channel

applications running off the same power-supply, the post-scale values can be linke d to the

value of channel 1 for ease of use and in order to update the values faster.

For ease of use, all channels can use the biquad coefficients loaded into the channel 1

coefficient RAM space by setting the BQL bit to 1. Therefore, an y EQ updates only have to

be performed once.

The STA321 MP fe at ur es an FF X pr oc ess i ng mo de tha t min imizes the amount of noise

generated in the frequency range of AM radio. This mode is intended for use when FFX is

operating in a device with an active AM tuner. The SNR of the FFX processing is redu ced to

~83 dB in this mode, which is still greater than the SNR of AM radio.

The STA321MP features two FFX processing modes that minimize the amount of noise

generated in the frequency range of AM radio. This second mode is intended for use when

FFX is operating in a device with an active AM tuner. This mode eliminates the noise-

shaper.

Channels 7 and 8 can be configured to be processed and output in such a manner that

headphones can be driven using an appr opriate output device. This signal is a differential

3-wire drive called FFX headphone.

Setting the IDE bit enables this function, which looks at the input I²S data and will

automatically mu te if the signals are perceived as invalid.

The BCLE bit detects loss of input MCLK in binary mode and will output 50% duty cycle.

The LDTE bit actively prevents double triggering of LRCLK.

When active, the ECLE bit will issue a device power-down signal (EAPD) on clock loss

detection.

Registers STA321MP

40/84 DocID022647 Rev 5

The volume structure of the STA321MP consists of individual volume registers for each

channel and a master volume register that provides an offset to each channel’s volume

setting. There is also an additional offset for each channel calle d chann el volu m e trim . The

individual channel volumes are adjustable in 0.5 dB steps from +48 dB to -78 dB. As an

example if C5V = 0xXX or +XXX dB and MV = 0xXX or -XX dB, then the total gain for

channel 5 = XX dB. The channel volume trim is adjustable independently on each channel

from -10 dB to +10 dB in 1 dB steps. A fine volume configuration register could be used to

offset at 0.25 dB step each channel.

The master mute when set to 1 will mute all ch annels at once, whereas the individual

channel mutes (CnM) will mute only that channel. Both the master mute and the channel

mutes provide a "soft mute" with the volume ramping down to mute in 8192 samples from

the maximum volum e settin g at the inte rn al pr oc es sing rat e (~1 92 kHz). A "hard mute" can

be obta ined by commanding a value of 0xFF (255) to any channel volume register or the

master volume register. When volume offsets are provided via the master volume register

any channel whose total volume is less than -91 dB will be muted. All changes in volume

take place at zero-crossings wh en ZCE = 1 (config uration register H) on a pe r-channel basis

as this creates the smoothest possible volume transitions. When ZCE = 0, volume updates

occur immediately. Each channel also contains an individual channel volu me bypass. If a

particular channel has volume bypassed via the CnVBP = 1 register, then only the channel

volume setting for that particular channel affects the volume setting, the master volume

setting will not affect that channel. Each channel also contains a channel mute. If CnM = 1,

a soft mute is perform ed on that channel.

5.2.48 Limiter description

The STA321MP includes two independent limite r blocks. The purpose of the limiters is to

automatically reduce the dynamic range of a recording to prevent the outp uts from clipping

in anti-clipping mode or to actively reduce the dynamic range for a better liste ning

environment such as a nighttime listening mode which is often needed for DVDs. The two

modes are selected via the DRC bit in configuration register B, bit 7 address 0x02. Each

channel can be mapped to either limiter or not mapped, meaning that the channel will clip

when 0 dBFS is exceeded. Each limiter will look at the present value of each channel that is

mapped to it, select the maximum absolute value of all these channels, perform the limiting

algorithm on that value, and then, if needed, adjust the gain of th e mapped channels in

unison.

The limiter attack thresholds are determined by the LnAT registers. It is recommended in

anti-clipping mode to set this to 0 dBFS, which corresponds to the maximum unclipped

output power of an FFX amplifier. Since gain can be added digitally within the STA321MP it

is possible to exceed 0 dBFS or any other LnAT setting. When this occurs, the limiter, when

active, will automatically st art re ducing the gain. The rate at which the gain is redu ced when

the attack thr eshold is exceeded is dependent upon the attack rate register setting for that

limiter. The gain reduction occurs on a peak-detect algorithm.

The release of the limiter, when the gain is again increased, is dependent on an RMS-detect

algorithm. The output of the vo lume/limiter block is passed throug h an RMS filter . The output

of this filter is compared to the release threshold, determined by the release threshold

increased at a ra te dependent upon the release rate register. The gain can never be

increased past it s set value and therefore the release will only occur if the limiter has already

reduced the gain. The release threshold value can be used to set what is effectively a

minimum dynamic range, this is helpful as overlimitin g can reduce the dynamic range to

virtually zero and cause program material to sound lifeless.

A collection of I2C registers are dedicated to this function. One contains a coefficient base

address, fi ve sets of th ree store the values o f the 24-bit coef ficient s to be written or th at were

read, and one contains bits used to control the write of the coefficient(s) to RAM . The

The mechanism for writing a set of coefficients to RAM provides a method of updating the

five coefficients corresponding to a given biquad (filter) simult aneously to avoid possible

unpleasant acoustic side-effects.

When using this technique, the 10-bit address would specify the address of the biquad b1

coefficient (for example, decimals 0, 5, 10, 15, …, 100, … 395), and th e STA321MP will

generate the RAM addresses as offsets from this base value to write the complete set of

coefficient data.

with the 0x77, 0x78 and 0x79 I2C registers. The coefficients range setting is common for all

the channels.

CxHy0 = b1 / 2

CxHy1 = b2

CxHy2 = -a1 / 2

CxHy3 = -a2

CxHy4 = b0 / 2

By default, all user-defined filters are p ass-thro ugh wher e all coe f ficien t s ar e set to 0, exce pt

the b0/2 coefficient which is set to 0x400000 (representing 0.5). Mix coefficients use only 1

range.

A special feature inside the d igit al processing b lock is available (active when the nshen bit is

set to ‘1’). In case of poles positioned at very low frequencies, biquads filters can generate

some audible quantization noise or unwante d DC level. In order to avoid this kind of effect a

quantization noise-shaping capability can be used. The filter structure including this special

feature, relative to each biquad is shown in Figure 10.

The new feature can be enabled independently fo r each biqu ad using the I2C registers. The

D7 bit, when set, is responsible for activating this function on the crossover filter while the

other bits address any specific biquads according to the previous table. Channels 1 and 2

share the same settings. Bit D7 is effective also for channel 3 if the related OCFG is used.

6.1 Post-scale

The STA321MP provides one additional multiplication after the last interpolation stage and

before the distortion compensation on each channel. This is a 24-bit signed fractional

multiply.

The scale factor for this multiply is loaded into RAM using the same I2C registers as the

biquad coefficients and the bass-management.

This post-scale factor can be used in con junction with an ADC-equipped microcontroller to

perform power -su p ply er ro r co rrection. All channels can use the channel 1 by setting the

post-scale link bit.

6.4 PSCorrect registers

An ADC is used to input ripple data to SDI78. The left channel (7) is used internally. No

audio data can therefore be used on these channels, altho ugh all channel mapping and

mixing from other inputs to channels 7 and 8 internally are still valid.

6.4.1 PSC1-2: ripple correction value (RCV) (0x51, 0x52)

This value is equivalent to the negative maximum ripple peak as a percentage of Vcc

(MPR), scaled by the inverse of the maximum ripple p-p as a percentage of the full- scale

analog input to the ADC. It is represented as a 1.11 signed fractional number.

6.4.2 PSC3: correction normalization value (CNV) (0x53)

This value is equivalent to 1 / (1+MPR) expressed as a 0.12 unsigned fractional number.

6.5.8 Zero-mute threshold/hysteresis and RMS zero-mute selectors (0x6F)

Zero-mute (0x6F)

The STA321MP implements an RMS-based zero-detect function (on serial input interface

data) able to de tect in a very relia ble way the pr esence of an in put sign al, so that the p ower

bridge outputs can be automatically connected to ground. When active, the function will

mute the output PWM when the input level become less than threshold - hysteresis.

Once muted, the PWM will be unmuted when the input level is detected greater than

threshold + hysteresis .

The measured level is then reported (each input channel is selected by RMSZS[2:0] value)

on registers 0x7A, 0x7B.

Two set of registers are available to monitor the RMS level detected by the zero-mute block

and after the signal processing.

The measured level for a selected channel is given in 0x7A & 0x7B (zero-mute level) and

0x7C & 0x7D (PWM out level) according to the following expression:

Value(dB) = 20Log(rms[15:0]/(216 x 0.635))

where rms[15:0] is an unsigned integer formed by:

rms[15:0] = rmsZMH[7:0], rmsZML[7:0] for zero-mute level

rms[15:0] = rmsPOH[7:0], rmsPOL[7:0] for PWM output level
