Parallel to AXI5 Bridge for Audio CODEC

dos_parallel_axi_bridge is an Audio Parallel (Slave) to AXI-Lite (Slave) Bridge designed for efficient audio data transfer.

Overview

dos_parallel_axi_bridge is an Audio Parallel (Slave) to AXI-Lite (Slave) Bridge designed for efficient audio data transfer. It features a programmable FIFO with overflow and underflow handling, ensuring reliable performance. The bridge uses APB control interface (aligned with AMBA 4) and is optimized for the AXI-Lite 5 Slave interface. Tailored for audio applications, it streamlines data transfer by removing unnecessary AXI features, making it ideal for modern, low-latency processing architectures.

Key features

  • Increased bandwith and decrease latency on data transfer.

Benefits

  • Parallel interface for Codec connection
  • Support for multiple channels
  • Each channel includes a FIFO accessible from parallel and AXI interfaces.

Paving the way for the next generation audio codec for the True Wireless Stereo (TWS) applications - PART 1 : TWS challenges explained

The audio market for wireless Bluetooth headsets is growing rapidly. Audio devices using Bluetooth (BT) connectivity are more ubiquitous than ever. People have gotten used to wireless audio systems, and the mobile phone industry is pushing towards a world without audio connectors and cables. The latest trend in wireless headsets and speakers is True Wireless Stereo systems (TWS), consisting of two independent units that are each charged in their own charging case.

Thorough validation: the conundrum of Pulsed latch libraries turned practical as Spinner systems

Using pulsed latches instead of flip-flops is a solution that has been thoroughly studied for its advantages in speed, density, and power consumption reduction [1] [2]. Even so, this solution has not been widely adopted by standard cell library providers because of the difficulties related to timing verifications: pulse width integrity and hold time closure. There is also a lack of EDA tools natively supporting this feature. Dolphin Integration delivers standard cell libraries based on pulsed latches (SESAME uHD libraries) that can be used in standard design flows and fully compatible with the most common EDA tools.
