AD2425WEnhanced Automotive Audio Bus®(A2B®) Transceiver supporting both Master and Slave operation | Audio Special Purpose | 2 | Active | The Automotive Audio Bus®(A2B®) is an innovative technology that reduces system cost, weight, and design complexity by distributing audio and control data, together with clock and power over a single, low-cost, unshielded twisted pair cable. The AD2425W is an enhanced A2B transceiver offering an expanded feature set while retaining complete compatibility with existing AD241x devices. The AD2425W is fully configurable supporting both master and slave functionality.The AD2425W is targeted for use in wiring intensive applications where reducing the weight or complexity of existing cable harnesses is a primary system design objective.

AD2426A2B Last-in-Line Subordinate 4xPDM XCVR | Integrated Circuits (ICs) | 2 | Active | The Automotive Audio Bus (A2B®) provides a multichannel, I2S/TDM link over distances of up to 15 m between nodes. It embeds bidirectional synchronous pulse-code modulation (PCM) data (for example, digital audio), clock, and synchronization signals onto a single differential wire pair. A2B supports a direct point to point connection and allows multiple, daisy-chained nodes at different locations to contribute and/or consume time division multiplexed (TDM) channel content.A2B is a single main node, multiple subordinate node system where the transceiver at the host controller is the main node. The main node generates clock, synchronization, and framing for all subordinate nodes. The main A2B transceiver is programmable over a control port (I2C) for configuration and read back. An extension of the control port protocol is embedded in the A2B data stream, which allows direct access of registers and status information on subordinate transceivers, as well as I2C to I2C communication over distance.The transceiver can connect directly to general-purpose digital signal processors (DSPs), field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), application specific integrated circuits (ASICs), microphones, analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), digital-to-analog converters (DACs), and codecs through a multichannel I2S/TDM interface. It also provides a pulse density modulation (PDM) interface for direct connection of up to four PDM digital microphones.Finally, the transceiver also supports an A2B bus powering feature, where the main node supplies voltage and current to the subordinate nodes over the same daisy-chained, twisted pair wire cable as used for the communication link.Table 1.

AD2437A2B Transceiver Supporting 50W Bus Power and Extended Distance | Evaluation Boards | 5 | Active | The AD2437 A2B®transceiver provides a multichannel, I2S/TDM link over distances of up to 30 m between nodes. It embeds bidirectional synchronous pulse-code modulation (PCM) data (for example, digital audio), clock, and synchronization signals onto a single-pair differential cable. A2B supports a direct point to point connection and allows multiple, daisy-chained nodes at different locations to contribute and/or consume time division multiplexed channel content.A2B is a single main node, multiple subordinate node system where the transceiver at the host controller is the main node. The main node generates clock, synchronization, and framing for all subordinate nodes. The main A2B transceiver is programmable over a control port (I2C/SPI) for configuration and read back. An extension of the control port protocol is embedded in the A2B data stream. This allows direct access to registers and status information on subordinate transceivers, as well as I2C to I2C, SPI to I2C, or SPI to SPI communication from the host to a peripheral in a subordinate node. SPI to SPI communication between subordinate nodes can be performed directly and does not need to involve the main node.The transceiver can connect directly to general-purpose digital signal processors (DSPs), field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), application specific integrated circuits (ASICs), digital microphones, analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), digital-to-analog converters (DACs), and codecs through a multichannel I2S/TDM interface. It also provides a pulse density modulation (PDM) interface for direct connection of up to four PDM digital microphones.The transceiver supports a bus power feature, where the main node supplies voltage and current to the subordinate nodes over the same daisy-chained, single-pair wire or XLR/DMX cable as used for the communication link.The transceiver also supports a broad spectrum of Ethernet cables in which the A2B occupies only one pair of a category (CAT) cable. This frees up the remaining CAT cable pairs for power delivery.APPLICATIONSConference room transducer nodesMusical instrument connectivityDistributed audio systemsPersonal audio zones |
