5.1 Analog Input
5.2 Analog Output
5.3 Digital Control
EVM Operation
The USB-MODEVM Interface board can be powered from several different sources:•USB
•6VDC-10VDC AC/DC external wall supply (not included)•Lab power supply
When powered from the USB connection, JMP6 should have a shunt from pins 1–2 (this is the defaultfactory configuration). When powered from 6V-10VDC, either through the J8 terminal block or J9 barreljack, JMP6 should have a shunt installed on pins 2–3. If power is applied in any of these ways, onboardregulators generate the required supply voltages and no further power supplies are necessary.
If lab supplies are used to provide the individual voltages required by the USB-MODEVM Interface, JMP6should have no shunt installed. Voltages are then applied to J2 (+5VA), J3 (+5VD), J4 (+1.8VD), and J5(+3.3VD). The +1.8VD and +3.3VD can also be generated on the board by the onboard regulators fromthe +5VD supply; to enable this configuration, the switches on SW1 need to be set to enable theregulators by placing them in the ON position (lower position, looking at the board with text readingright-side up). If +1.8VD and +3.3VD are supplied externally, disable the onboard regulators by placingSW1 switches in the OFF position.
Each power supply voltage has an LED (D1-D7) that lights when the power supplies are active.
This section provides information on the analog input and output, digital control, and general operatingconditions of the TLV320AIC33EVM.
The analog input sources can be applied directly to J13 (top or bottom side) or through signal conditioningmodules available for the modular EVM system.
The analog inputs may also be accessed through J6 and and screw terminals J1, J2, and J3.
The analog outputs from the TLV320AIC33 are available on J13 and J14 (top or bottom). They also maybe accessed through J4, J5, J7, J11,and J12.
The digital control signals can be applied directly to J16 and J17 (top or bottom side). The modularTLV320AIC33EVM can also be connected directly to a DSP interface board, such as the5-6KINTERFACE or HPA-MCUINTERFACE, or to the USB-MODEVM Interface board if purchased as partof the TLV320AIC33EVM-PDK. See the product folder for this EVM or the TLV320AIC33 for a current listof compatible interface and/or accessory boards.

6.3 USB-MODEVM Interface Board
Kit Operation
The software should automatically find the TLV320AIC33EVM, and a screen similar to the one in Figure 2should appear.
Figure 2. Default Software Screen
The simple diagram shown in Figure 1 shows only the basic features of the USB-MODEVM Interfaceboard. The board is built around a TAS1020B streaming audio USB controller with an 8051-based core.The board features two positions for modular EVMs, or one double-wide serial modular EVM may beinstalled.
Since the TLV320AIC33EVM is a double-wide modular EVM, it is installed with connections to both EVMpositions, which connects the TLV320AIC33 digital control interface to the I
2
C port realized using theTAS1020B, as well as the TAS1020B digital audio interface..
In the factory configuration, the board is ready to use with the TLV320AIC33EVM. To view all the functionsand configuration options available on the USB-MODEVM board, see the USB-MODEVM Interface Boardschematic in Appendix B .

6.6 Indicators and Main Screen Controls
Kit Operation
After the TLV320AIC33EVM-PDK software installation (described in Section 6.2 ) is complete, evaluationand development with the TLV320AIC33 can begin.
When the program first starts up, a small window (Figure 3 ) appears that gives two choices for the controlinterface: I
2
C or SPI. Click on the interface that will be used by the EVM, as selected by the jumpersettings detailed in Table 5 .
Figure 3. Interface Selection Window
If the I
2
C interface is selected, a second window then appears which allows for selecting the address ofthe TLV320AIC33. This window (see Figure 4 ) has two checkboxes for setting the state of A0 and A1.Note that this address should correspond to the jumper settings selected as described in Table 5 .
Figure 4. I
2
C Address Selection Window
Figure 2 illustrates the indicators and controls near the top of the screen, and a large tabbed interfacebelow. This section will discuss the controls above this tabbed section.
At the top left of the screen is an Interface indicator. This indicator shows which interface is selected forcontrolling the TLV320AIC33 , either I
2
C or SPI; it is lit after the program begins.
To the right of the Interface indicator is a group box called Firmware. This box indicates where thefirmware being used is operating from—in this release, the firmware is on the USB-MODEVM, so youshould see USB-MODEVM in the box labeled Located On:. The version of the firmware appears in theVersion box below this.

www.ti.com
Kit Operation
To the right, the next group box contains controls for resetting the TLV320AIC33. A software reset can bedone by writing to a register in the TLV320AIC33, and this is accomplished by pushing the button labeledSoftware Reset. The TLV320AIC33 also may be reset by toggling a pin on the TLV320AIC33, which isdone by pushing the Hardware Reset button.
CAUTIONIn order to perform a hardware reset, the RESET jumper (JMP19) must beinstalled and SW2-7 on the USB-MODEVM must be turned OFF. Failure todo either of these steps results in not generating a hardware reset orcausing unstable operation of the EVM, which may require cycling powerto the USB-MODEVM.
The ADC Overflow and DAC Overflow indicators light when the overflow flags are set in theTLV320AIC33. These indicators, as well as the other indicators on this panel, are updated only when thesoftware's front panel is inactive, once every 20ms. Below these indicators are other indicators that showwhen the AGC noise threshold is exceeded. To the far right on this screen, the short-circuit indicatorsshow when a short-circuit condition is detected, if this feature has been enabled. Below the short-circuitindicators is a bar graph that shows the amount of gain which has been applied by the AGC, andindicators that light when the AGC is saturated.
6.6.1 Audio Analyzer
Near the left side of the screen is a button labeled Audio Analyzer, and this button can be set to ON orOFF. Pressing the button to turn it ON opens another window (see Figure 5 ). This feature provides theability to generate signals to send to the TLV320AIC33 DACs as well as viewing and analyzing signalsread by the TLV320AIC33 ADCs. This ability to view and process the real-time streaming USB audio is ademanding task. Use of the Audio Analyzer feature requires a computer with at least 512MB of memoryand reasonable processor speed (> 1GHz); computers with inadequate resources could still use the AudioAnalyzer to generate signals for the DACs, but will be unable to process signals from the ADCs becausethe FFT, distortion analysis, and signal-to-noise ratio analysis will not be able to keep up with the dataprocessing requirements.
The Audio Analyzer features two tabs. The front tab, shown in Figure 5 and titled Generator, createsdigital waveforms to send to the DACs. When first started, the function will be set to SNR (Output Zeros)which feeds only zero codes to the DAC. This is commonly done to test for the noise floor of the DAC.
The second function available is THD (-1dB sinewave). This function sends a sinewave at a coherentfrequency to the 44.1kHz sample rate to the DACs; this is commonly used for testing THD+N.
These first two functions do not require any further settings; therefore, the frequency and amplitude knobsbelow the function selector are not used. Selecting a function of Function Generator allows the choice ofwaveform shape by using the pull-down menu next to the function selector, and the frequency andamplitude of that signal can be varied using the knobs below.
The output waveforms for both left and right channels are displayed in the graph at the bottom of thisscreen.

6.7 Audio Input/ADC Tab
Kit Operation
Next to the time domain plots, calculated values of SINAD, SNR, and THD are shown. These values areall expressed in dB relative to the full-scale of the TLV320AIC33. Note that the SNR number shown isA-weighted.
In Figure 6 , a sine wave generated by the TLV320AIC33 DACs is fed through the high power drivers andback into the ADC and the resulting FFTs can be seen. Note that this is a full analog loopback test case,so the measured numbers show the combined performance of the DAC, drivers, and ADC. There is alsono post-DAC filtering; as noted in the data sheet, this may degrade measurements even though there isno audible noise.
The Audio Input/ADC Tab is laid out like an audio mixing console. Each input channel has a vertical stripthat corresponds to that channel. LINE1L and LINE1R input strips have controls to route that input toeither the left or right ADC input; by default, all inputs are muted when the TLV320AIC33 is powered up.To route an input to the ADC, first click on the MUTE button in the input channel strip which correspondsto the ADC input channel you want that input to go to—the caption on the button will change to ACTIVE.The level of the input channel routed to that particular ADC channel can then be adjusted using the Levelknob below the MUTE/ACTIVE button. See Figure 7 .
Figure 7. Audio Input Tab
Similarly, the LINE2L and LINE2R inputs can be routed to the ADC. However, note that these inputs donot have the choice to route to either ADC channel; they can only be configured to connect to thecorresponding ADC input.

6.8 Audio Interface Tab
Kit Operation
The MIC3L and MIC3R inputs are similar to the LINE1L and LINE1R inputs in that they can be routed toeither ADC input channel. Control of the mic bias is accomplished by using the pull-down menu at the topof these channel strips. The mic bias can either be powered down or set to 2.0V, 2.5V, or the powersupply voltage of the ADC (AVDD_ADC).
To use the on-board microphone, JMP2 and JMP3 must be installed and nothing should be plugged intoJ6. In order for the mic bias settings in the software to take effect, JMP1 should be set to connectpositions 2 and 3, so that mic bias is controlled by the TLV320AIC33.
In the upper right of this tab are controls for Weak Common Mode Bias. Enabling these controls willresult in unselected inputs to the ADC channels to be weakly biased to the ADC common mode voltage.
Below these controls are the controls for the ADC PGA—the master volume controls for the ADC inputs.Each channel of the ADC can be powered up or down as needed using the Powered Up buttons. PGAsoft-stepping for each channel is selected using the control below this. The large knobs set the actualADC PGA Gain; at the extreme counterclockwise rotation, the channel is muted. Rotating the knobclockwise increases the PGA gain.
The Audio Interface tab (Figure 8 ) sets up the audio data interface to the TLV320AIC33. For use with thePC software and the USB-MODEVM, the default settings should be used. If using an external I

S source,or other data source, the interface mode may be selected using the Transfer Mode control—selectingeither I

S mode, DSP mode, or Right- or Left-Justified modes. Word length can be selected using theWord Length control, and the bit clock rate can also be selected using the Bit Clock rate control. TheData Word Offset, used in TDM mode (see the product datasheet ) can also be selected on this tab.

Figure 8. Audio Interface Tab
Along the bottom of this tab are controls for choosing the BLCK and WCLK as being either inputs oroutputs, as well as options for tristating the DOUT line when there is not valid data and transmitting BLCKand WCLK when the codec is powered down.
Re-sync of the audio bus is enabled using the controls in the lower right corner of this screen. Re-sync isdone if the group delay changes by more than ±FS/4 for the ADC or DAC sample rates (see theTLV320AIC33 datasheet). The channels can be soft muted when doing the re-sync if the Soft Mute buttonis enabled.
In the upper right corner of this tab is the Digital Mic Functionality control. The TLV320AIC33 can accepta data stream from a digital microphone, which would have its clock pin connected to the TLV320AIC33GPIO1 pin, and the mic data connected to the GPIO2 pin. Refer to section Section 6.10 for a discussion ofsetting the GPIO pin options. The TLV320AIC33 can provide a modulator clock to the digital microphonewith oversampling ratios (OSR) of 128, 64, or 32. For a detailed discussion of how to connect a digitalmicrophone on this platform, refer to the application note Using the Digital Microphone Function onTLV320AIC33 with AIC33EVM/USB-MODEVM System (literature number SLAA275 ), available fordownload at www.ti.com .

6.9 Clocks Tab
Kit Operation
The TLV320AIC33 has a very flexible scheme for generating the clock sources for ADC and DAC samplerates. The Clocks tab allows access to set the different options for setting up these clocks. Refer to theAudio Clock Generation Processing figure in the TLV320AIC33 datasheet.
For use with the PC software and the USB-MODEVM, the clock settings must be set a certain way. Thesesettings are not the default settings of the TLV320AIC33. The EVM-required settings can be loadedautomatically by pushing the Load EVM Clock Settings button at the bottom of this tab. Note thatchanging any of the clock settings from the values loaded when this button is pushed may result in theEVM not working properly with the PC software or USB interface. If an external audio bus is used (audionot driven over the USB bus), then settings may be changed to any valid combination. See Figure 9 .
Figure 9. Clocks Tab
The codec clock source is chosen by by the CODEC_CLK Source control. When this control is set toCLKDIV_OUT, the PLL is not used; when set to PLLDIV_OUT, the PLL is used to generate the clocks.
6.9.1 Use Without PLL
Setting up the TLV320AIC33 for clocking without using the PLL is straightforward. The CLKDIV_IN sourcecan be selected as either MCLK or BCLK, the default is MCLK. The CLKDIV_IN frequency is then enteredinto the CLKDIV_IN box, in megahertz (MHz). The default value shown, 11.2896MHz, is the frequencyused on the USB-MODEVM board. This value is then divided by the value of Q, which can be set from 2to 17; the resulting CLKDIV_OUT frequency is shown in the indicator next to the Qcontrol.

6.10 GPIO Tab
Kit Operation
This frequency will then be used to calculate the actual Fsref frequency, and the ADC and DAC samplerates, after the NADC and NDAC factors are applied to the Fsref. If dual rate mode is desired, this optioncan be enabled for either the ADC or DAC by pressing the corresponding Dual Rate Mode button.
6.9.2 Use With The PLL
When PLLDIV_OUT is selected as the codec clock source, the PLL will be used. The PLL clock source ischosen using the PLLCLK_IN control, and may be set to either MCLK or BCLK. The PLLCLK_INfrequency is then entered into the PLLCLK_IN Source box.
The PLL_OUT and PLLDIV_OUT indicators show the resulting PLL output frequencies with the values setfor the P, K, and R parameters of the PLL. Refer to the the TLV320AIC33 datasheet for an explanation ofthese parameters. The parameters can be set by clicking on the up/down arrows of the P,K, and Rcombo boxes, or they can be typed into these boxes. The values can also be calculated by the PCsoftware.
To use the PC software to find the ideal values of P, K, and R for a given PLL input frequency and desiredFsref, the desired Fsref must be set using the switch on this tab; it can be set to either 44.1kHz or 48kHz.Once the desired Fsref and PLLCLK_IN values are correctly set, pushing the Search for Ideal Settingsbutton starts the software searching for ideal combinations of P, K, and R which achieve the desired Fsref.The possible settings for these parameters are displayed in the spreadsheet-like table labeled PossibleSettings. Clicking on a row in this table sets the P, K, and R values in the software and updates thePLL_OUT and PLLDIV_OUT readings, as well as the Actual Fsref and Error displays. This process doesnot actually load the values into the TLV320AIC33, however; it only updates the displays in the software.This allows for different possible solutions to be selected and the error evaluated before loading into thedevice.
When a suitable combination of P,K, and R have been chosen, pressing the Load Settings into Device?button will download these values into the appropriate registers on the TLV320AIC33.
The GPIO tab (see Figure 10 ) selects options for the general-purpose inputs and outputs (GPIO) of theTLV320AIC33. Many pins on the TLV320AIC33 are denoted as multifunction pins, meaning they may beused for many different purposes.

Figure 10. GPIO Tab
The GPIO1 groupbox contains controls for setting options for the GPIO1 pin. The Function control selectsthe function that GPIO1 will be used for—it can be used as the ADC Word Clock, as an output clock, asinterrupt pins to signal Short Circuit or AGC Noise Threshold detection, or Button Press or Headsetdetection. It may also be used for the alternate I
2
S Word Clock or provide a modulator clock for use with adigital microphone (see Section 6.8 and the TLV320AIC33 datasheet). In addition, it can also be used as ageneral-purpose I/O pin.
If selected as a General Purpose Input, the state of the GPIO1 pin is reflected by the Input Levelindicator. If selected as a General Purpose Output, the state of the GPIO1 pin can be set by using theOutput Level button.
For use as an interrupt output, the behavior of the interrupt can be selected using the Interrupt Durationcontrol. A Single, 2ms pulse can be delivered when the selected interrupt occurs, or Continuous Pulsescan be generated signaling the interrupt.
In similar fashion, the GPIO2 pin can also be used for an alternate I

S bus, provide interrupt outputs, or beused with a digital microphone. These options are selected using the Function control in the GPIO2groupbox. The other controls in this groupbox work the same as the corresponding controls for GPIO1.
When the control interface for the TLV320AIC33 is selected to be I

C, the SDA and SCL groupboxes andcontrols within them are disabled. If SPI mode is selected, however, the SDA and SCL pins can be usedas GPIO, and selected as either inputs or outputs using the SDA Function and SCL Function controls.The Output Level and Input Level controls function for these pins in the same way that they do forGPIO1 or GPIO2.
