The ground buffer GBUF can be used for common voltage (1.23 V) for earphones. This will eliminatethe need for large isolation capacitors on line outputs, and thus the audio output pins from VS1011e maybe connected directly to the earphone connector.

If GBUF is not used, LEFT and RIGHT must be provided with 1-100µF capacitors depending on loadresistance.

Note: This connection assumes SMSDINEW is active (see Chapter 8.6.1). If also SMSDISHARE isused, xDCS should have a pull-up resistor (see Chapter 7.2.1).

7. SPI BUSES

7 SPI Buses

7.1 General

The SPI Bus - that was originally used in some Motorola devices - has been used for both VS1011e’sSerial Data Interface SDI (Chapters 7.3 and 8.4) and Serial Control Interface SCI (Chapters 7.5 and 8.5).

7.2 SPI Bus Pin Descriptions

7.2.1 VS1002 Native Modes (New Mode)

These modes are active on VS1011e when SMSDINEW is set to 1. DCLK, SDATA and BSYNC arereplaced with GPIO2, GPIO3 and XDCS, respectively.

SDI Pin SCI Pin Description

XDCS XCS Active low chip select input. A high level forces the serial interface intostandby mode, ending the current operation. A high level also forces serialoutput (SO) to high impedance state. If SMSDISHARE is 1, pinXDCS is not used, but the signal is generated internally by invertingXCS.

SCK Serial clock input. The serial clock is also used internally as the masterclock for the register interface.SCK can be gated or continuous. In either case, the first rising clock edgeafter XCS has gone low marks the first bit to be written.

SI Serial input. If a chip select is active, SI is sampled on the rising CLK edge.- SO Serial output. In reads, data is shifted out on the falling SCK edge.

In writes SO is at a high impedance state.

7.2.2 VS1001 Compatibility Mode

This mode is active when SMSDINEW is 0 (default). In this mode, DCLK, SDATA and BSYNC areactive.

SDI Pin SCI Pin Description

- XCS Active low chip select input. A high level forces the serial interface intostandby mode, ending the current operation. A high level also forces serialoutput (SO) to high impedance state. There is no chip select for SDI, whichis always active.

BSYNC - SDI data is synchronized with a rising edge of BSYNC.DCLK SCK Serial clock input. The serial clock is also used internally as the master

clock for the register interface.SCK can be gated or continuous. In either case, the first rising clock edgeafter XCS has gone low marks the first bit to be written.

SDATA SI Serial input. SI is sampled on the rising SCK edge, if XCS is low.- SO Serial output. In reads, data is shifted out on the falling SCK edge.

In writes SO is at a high impedance state.

7. SPI BUSES

7.3 Serial Protocol for Serial Data Interface (SDI)

7.3.1 General

The serial data interface operates in slave mode so the DCLK signal must be generated by an externalcircuit.

Data (SDATA signal) can be clocked in at either the rising or falling edge of DCLK (Chapter 8.6).

VS1011e assumes its data input to be byte-sychronized. SDI bytes may be transmitted either MSb orLSb first, depending of contents of SCIMODE (Chapter 8.6).

7.3.2 SDI in VS1002 Native Modes (New Mode)

In VS1002 native modes (which are available also in VS1011e), byte synchronization is achieved byXDCS (or XCS if SMSDISHARE is 1). The state of XDCS (or XCS) may not change while a databyte transfer is in progress. To always maintain data synchronization even if there may be glitches inthe boards using VS1011e, it is recommended to turn XDCS (or XCS) every now and then, for instanceonce after every flash data block or a few kilobytes, just to keep sure the host and VS1011e are in sync.

For new designs, using VS1002 native modes are recommended, as they are easier to implement thanBSYNC generation.

DCLK

D7 D6 D5 D4 D3 D2 D1 D0

Figure 5: BSYNC Signal - one byte transfer.

When VS1011e is running in VS1001 compatibility mode, a BSYNC signal must be generated to ensurecorrect bit-alignment of the input bitstream. The first DCLK sampling edge (rising or falling, dependingon selected polarity), during which the BSYNC is high, marks the first bit of a byte (LSB, if LSB-firstorder is used, MSB, if MSB-first order is used). If BSYNC is ’1’ when the last bit is received, the receiverstays active and next 8 bits are also received.

7. SPI BUSES

Using VS1001 compatibility mode in new designs is strongly discouraged.

7.4 Data Request Pin DREQ

The DREQ pin/signal is used to signal if VS1011e’s FIFO is capable of receiving data. If DREQ is high,VS1011e can take at least 32 bytes of SDI data or one SCI command. When these criteria are not met,DREQ is turned low, and the sender should stop transferring new data.

Because of a 32-byte safety area, the sender may send upto 32 bytes of SDI data at a time withoutchecking the status of DREQ, making controlling VS1011e easier for low-speed microcontrollers.

Note: DREQ may turn low or high at any time, even during a byte transmission. Thus, DREQ shouldonly be used to decide whether to send more bytes. It should not abort a transmission that has alreadystarted.

Note: In VS10XX products upto VS1002, DREQ was only used for SDI. In VS1011e DREQ is also usedto tell the status of SCI.

7.5 Serial Protocol for Serial Command Interface (SCI)

7.5.1 General

The serial bus protocol for the Serial Command Interface SCI (Chapter 8.5) consists of an instructionbyte, address byte and one 16-bit data word. Each read or write operation can read or write a singleregister. Data bits are read at the rising clock edge, so the user should update data at the falling clockedge. Bytes are always sent MSb firrst.

The operation is specified by an 8-bit instruction opcode. The supported instructions are read and write.See table below.

InstructionName Opcode Operation

READ 0000 0011 Read dataWRITE 0000 0010 Write data

Note: VS1011e sets DREQ low after each SCI operation. The duration depends on the operation. It isnot allowed to start a new SCI/SDI operation before DREQ is high again.

VS1011e registers are read by the following sequence, as shown in Figure 7. First, XCS line is pulledlow to select the device. Then the READ opcode (0x3) is transmitted via the SI line followed by an 8-bitword address. After the address has been read in, any further data on SI is ignored. The 16-bit datacorresponding to the received address will be shifted out onto the SO line.

XCS should be driven high after data has been shifted out.

DREQ is driven low for a short while when in a read operation by the chip. This is a very short time anddoesn’t require special user attention.

7. SPI BUSES

After the word has been shifted in and the last clock has been sent, XCS should be pulled high to end theWRITE sequence.

After the last bit has been sent, DREQ is driven low for the duration of the register update, marked “exe-cution” in the figure. The time varies depending on the register and its contents (see table in Chapter 8.6for details). If the maximum time is longer than what it takes from the microcontroller to feed the nextSCI command or SDI byte, it is not allowed to finish a new SCI/SDI operation before DREQ has risenup again.

Figure 13: Data Flow of VS1011e.

First, depending on the audio data, MPEG or WAV audio is received and decoded from the SDI bus.

After decoding, if SCIAIADDR is non-zero, application code is executed from the address pointed toby that register. For more details, see VS10XX Application Note: User Applications.

Then data may be sent to the Bass and Treble Enhancer depending on SCIBASS.

After that the signal is fed to the volume control unit, which also copies the data to the Audio FIFO.

The Audio FIFO holds the data, which is read by the Audio interrupt (Chapter 10.9.1) and fed to thesample rate converter and DACs. The size of the audio FIFO is 512 stereo (2×16-bit) samples, or 2 KiB.

The sample rate converter converts all different sample rates to CLKI/512 and feeds the data to the DAC,which in order creates a stereo in-phase analog signal. This signal is then forwarded to the earphoneamplifier.

8.4 Serial Data Interface (SDI)

The serial data interface is meant for transferring compressed MP3 audio data as well as WAV data.

Also several different tests may be activated through SDI as described in Chapter 9.

8.5 Serial Control Interface (SCI)

The serial control interface is compatible with the SPI bus specification. Data transfers are always 16bits. VS1011e is controlled by writing and reading the registers of the interface.

The main controls of the control interface are:

• control of the operation mode, clock, and builtin effects• access to status information and header data• access to encoded digital data• uploading user programs• feeding input data

1 This is the worst-case time that DREQ stays low after writing to this register. The user may choose toskip the DREQ check for those register writes that take less than 100 clock cycles to execute.2 In addition, the cycles spent in the user application routine must be counted.3 Firmware changes the value of this register immediately to 0x28, and in less than 100 ms to 0x20.4 When mode register write specifies a software reset the worst-case time is 9600 XTALI cycles.

Note that if DREQ is low when an SCI write is done, DREQ also stays low after SCI write processing.

When SMDIFF is set, the player inverts the left channel output. For a stereo input this creates a virtualsurround, and for a mono input this effectively creates a differential left/right signal.

SM LAYER12 determines whether it is allowed to decode MPEG 1 and 2 layers I and II in addition tolayer III. If you enable Layer I and Layer II decoding, you are liable for any patent issues that mayarise. Joint licensing of MPEG 1.0 / 2.0 Layer III does not cover all patents pertaining to layers I and II.

By setting SMRESET to 1, the player is software reset. This bit clears automatically.

When the user decoding a WAV file wants to get out of the file without playing it to the end, setSM OUTOFWAV, and send zeros to VS1002e until SMOUTOFWAV is again zero. If the user doesn’twant to check SMOUTOFWAV, send 128 zeros.

If SM TESTS is set, SDI tests are allowed. For more details on SDI tests, look at Chapter 9.7.

8. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

SM STREAM activates VS1011e’s stream mode. In this mode, data should be sent with as even intervalsas possible (and preferable with data blocks of less than 512 bytes), and VS1011e makes every attemptto keep its input buffer half full by changing its playback speed upto 5%. For best quality sound, theaverage speed error should be within 0.5%, the bitrate should not exceed 160 kbit/s and VBR should notbe used. For details, see VS10XX Application Note: Streaming.

SM DACT defines the active edge of data clock for SDI. If clear data is read at the rising edge, and if setdata is read at the falling edge.

When SMSDIORD is clear, bytes on SDI are sent as a default MSb first. By setting SMSDIORD, theuser may reverse the bit order for SDI, i.e. bit 0 is received first and bit 7 last. Bytes are, however, stillsent in the default order. This register bit has no effect on the SCI bus.

Setting SMSDISHARE makes SCI and SDI share the same chip select, as explained in Chapter 7.2, ifalso SMSDINEW is set.

Setting SMSDINEW will activate VS1002 native serial modes as described in Chapters 7.2.1 and 7.3.2.

8.6.2 SCISTATUS (RW)

SCI STATUS contains information on the current status of VS1011e and lets the user shutdown the chipwithout audio glitches.

Name Bits Description

SSVER 6:4 VersionSSAPDOWN2 3 Analog driver powerdownSSAPDOWN1 2 Analog internal powerdownSSAVOL 1:0 Analog volume control

SSVER is 0 for VS1001, 1 for VS1011, 2 for VS1002 and VS1011e, and 3 for vs1003.

You can use SCIMODE to distinguish between VS1002 and VS1011e. After reset VS1011e hasSM SDINEW=0, while VS1002 has SMSDINEW=1.

SSAPDOWN2 controls analog driver powerdown. Normally this bit is controlled by the system firmware.However, if the user wants to powerdown VS1011e with a minimum power-off transient, turn this bit to1, then wait for at least a few milliseconds before activating reset.

SSAPDOWN1 controls internal analog powerdown. This bit is meant to be used by the system firmwareonly.

SSAVOL is the analog volume control: 0 = -0 dB, 1 = -6 dB, 3 = -12 dB. This register is meant to beused automatically by the system firmware only.

The Bass Enhancer VSBE is a powerful bass boosting DSP algorithm, which tries to take the most outof the users earphones without causing clipping.

VSBE is activated when SBAMPLITUDE is non-zero. SBAMPLITUDE should be set to the user’spreferences, and SBFREQLIMIT to roughly 1.5 times the lowest frequency the user’s audio system canreproduce. For example setting SCIBASS to 0x00f6 will have 15 dB enhancement below 60 Hz.

Note: Because VSBE tries to avoid clipping, it gives the best bass boost with dynamical music material,or when the playback volume is not set to maximum. It also does not create bass: the source materialmust have some bass to begin with.

Treble Control VSTC is activated when STAMPLITUDE is non-zero. For example setting SCIBASSto 0x7a00 will have 10.5 dB treble enhancement at and above 10 kHz.

Bass Enhancer uses about 2.1 MIPS and Treble Control 1.2 MIPS at 44100 Hz sample rate. Both can beon simultaneously.

8.6.4 SCICLOCKF (RW)

SCI CLOCKF is used to tell if the input clock XTALI is running at something else than 24.576 MHz.XTALI is set in 2 kHz steps. Thus, the formula for calculating the correct value for this register isXTALI

2000(XTALI is in Hz). Values may be between 0..32767, although hardware limits the highest allowed speed.Also, with speeds lower than 24.576 MHz all sample rates are no longer available. For example with24 MHz clock 48 kHz is played 2.5% off-key.

Setting the MSB of SCICLOCKF to 1 activates internal clock-doubling when the sample rate is nextconfigured.

Note: SCICLOCKF must be set before beginning decoding audio data; otherwise the sample rate willnot be set correctly.

Example 1: For a 26 MHz clock the value would be260000002000 = 13000.

Example 2: For a 13 MHz external clock and using internal clock-doubling for a 26 MHz internalfrequency, the value would be0x8000 + 13000000

2000 = 39268.

Example 3: For a 24.576 MHz clock the value would be either245760002000 = 12288, or just the default

value0. For this clock frequency, SCICLOCKF doesn’t need to be set.

8.6.5 SCIDECODE TIME (RW)

When decoding correct data, current decoded time is shown in this register in full seconds.

The user may change the value of this register. However, in that case the new value should be writtentwice.

SCI DECODETIME is reset at every software reset.

8.6.6 SCIAUDATA (RW)

When decoding correct data, the current sample rate and number of channels can be found in bits 15:1and 0 of SCIAUDATA, respectively. Bits 15:1 contain the sample rate divided by two, and bit 0 is 0 formono data and 1 for stereo. Writing to this register will change the sample rate on the run to the numbergiven.

Example: 44100 Hz stereo data reads as 0xAC45 (44101).Example: 11025 Hz mono data reads as 0x2B10 (11024).Example: Writing 0xAC80 sets sample rate to 44160 Hz, stereo mode does not change.

8.6.7 SCIWRAM (RW)

SCI WRAM is used to upload application programs and data to instruction and data RAMs. The startaddress must be initialized by writing to SCIWRAMADDR prior to the first write/read of SCIWRAM.As 16 bits of data can be transferred with one SCIWRAM write/read, and the instruction word is 32 bitslong, two consecutive writes/reads are needed for each instruction word. The byte order is big-endian(i.e. MSBs first). After each full-word write/read, the internal pointer is autoincremented.

8.6.10 SCIAIADDR (RW)

SCI AIADDR indicates the start address of the application code written earlier with SCIWRAMADDRand SCIWRAM registers. If no application code is used, this register should not be initialized, or itshould be initialized to zero. For more details, see VS10XX Application Note: User Applications.

8.6.11 SCIVOL (RW)

SCI VOL is a volume control for the player hardware. For each channel, a value in the range of 0..254may be defined to set its attenuation from the maximum volume level (in 0.5 dB steps). The left channelvalue is then multiplied by 256 and the values are added. Thus, maximum volume is 0 and total silenceis 0xFEFE.

Example: for a volume of -2.0 dB for the left channel and -3.5 dB for the right channel: (4*256) + 7= 0x407. Note, that at startup volume is set to full volume. Resetting the software does not reset thevolume setting.

Note: Setting SCIVOL to 0xFFFF will activate analog powerdown mode.

8.6.12 SCIAICTRL[x] (RW)

SCI AICTRL[x] registers ( x=[0 .. 3] ) can be used to access the user’s application program.

9. OPERATION

9 Operation

9.1 Clocking

VS1011e operates on a single, nominally 24.576 MHz fundamental frequency master clock. This clockcan be generated by external circuitry (connected to pin XTALI) or by the internal clock chrystal interface(pins XTALI and XTALO). Also, 12.288 MHz external clock can be internally clock-doubled to 24.576MHz. This clock is sufficient to support a high quality audio output for all codecs, sample rates andbitrates, with bass and treble enhancers.

9.2 Hardware Reset

When the XRESET -signal is driven low, VS1011e is reset and all the control registers and internal statesare set to the initial values. XRESET-signal is asynchronous to any external clock. The reset modedoubles as a full-powerdown mode, where both digital and analog parts of VS1011e are in minimumpower consumption stage, and where clocks are stopped. Also XTALO and XTALI are grounded.

After a hardware reset (or at power-up), the user should set such basic software registers as SCIVOLfor volume (and SCICLOCKF if the input clock is anything else than 24.576 MHz) before startingdecoding.

9.3 Software Reset

In some cases the decoder software has to be reset. This is done by activating bit 2 in SCIMODE register(Chapter 8.6.1). Then wait for at least 2µs, then look at DREQ. DREQ will stay down for at least 6000clock cycles, which means an approximate 250µs delay if VS1011e is run at 24.576 MHz. After DREQis up, you may continue playback as usual.

If you want to make sure VS1011e doesn’t cut the ending of low-bitrate data streams and you want to doa software reset, it is recommended to feed 2048 zeros to the SDI bus after the file and before the reset.

If GPIO0 is set with a pull-up resistor to 1 at boot time, VS1011e tries to boot from external SPI memory.

SPI boot redefines the following pins:

The memory has to be an SPI Bus Serial EEPROM with 16-bit addresses (i.e. at least 1 KiB). The serialspeed used by VS1011e is 490 kHz with the nominal 24.576 MHz clock. The first three bytes in thememory have to be 0x50, 0x26, 0x48. The exact record format is explained in the Application Notes forVS10XX.

If SPI boot succeeds, SCIMODE is left with value 0x0800.

9.5 Play/Decode

This is the normal operation mode of VS1011e. SDI data is decoded. Decoded samples are converted toanalog domain by the internal DAC. If no decodable data is found, SCIHDAT0 and SCIHDAT1 are setto 0 and analog outputs are muted.

When there is no input for decoding, VS1011e goes into idle mode (lower power consumption thanduring decoding) and actively monitors the serial data input for valid data.

9.6 Feeding PCM data

VS1011e can be used as a PCM decoder by sending to it a WAV file header. If the length sent in theWAV file is 0 or 0xFFFFFFF, VS1011e will stay in PCM mode indefinitely. 8-bit linear and 16-bit linearaudio is supported in mono or stereo.

9.7 SDI Tests

There are several test modes in VS1011e, which allow the user to perform memory tests, SCI bus tests,and several different sine wave tests.

All tests are started in a similar way: VS1011e is hardware reset, SMTESTS is set, and then a testcommand is sent to the SDI bus. Each test is started by sending a 4-byte special command sequence,followed by 4 zeros. The sequences are described below.

9. OPERATION

9.7.1 Sine Test

Sine test is initialized with the 8-byte sequence 0x53 0xEF 0x6En 0 0 0 0, wheren defines the sine testto use.n is defined as follows:

n bitsName Bits Description

F sIdx 7:5 Sample rate indexS 4:0 Sine skip speed

F sIdx F s

0 44100 Hz1 48000 Hz2 32000 Hz3 22050 Hz4 24000 Hz5 16000 Hz6 11025 Hz7 12000 Hz

The frequency of the sine to be output can now be calculated fromF = F s × S128 .

Example: Sine test is activated with value 126, which is 0b01111110. Breakingn to its components,F sIdx = 0b011 = 1 and thusF s = 22050Hz. S = 0b11110 = 30, and thus the final sine frequencyF = 22050Hz × 30

128 ≈ 5168Hz.

To exit the sine test, send the sequence 0x45 0x78 0x69 0x74 0 0 0 0.

Note: Sine test signals go through the digital volume control, so it is possible to test channels separately.

9.7.2 Pin Test

Pin test is activated with the 8-byte sequence 0x50 0xED 0x6E 0x54 0 0 0 0. This test is meant for chipproduction testing only.

9.7.3 Memory Test

Memory test mode is initialized with the 8-byte sequence 0x4D 0xEA 0x6D 0x54 0 0 0 0. After thissequence, wait for 200000 clock cycles. The result can be read from the SCI register SCIHDAT0, and’one’ bits are interpreted as follows:

9.7.4 SCI Test

Sci test is initialized with the 8-byte sequence 0x53 0x70 0xEEn 0 0 0 0, wheren − 48 is the registernumber to test. The content of the given register is read and copied to SCIHDAT0. If the register to betested is HDAT0, the result is copied to SCIHDAT1.

Example: ifn is 48, contents of SCI register 0 (SCIMODE) is copied to SCIHDAT0.

INT ENABLE controls the interrupts. The control bits are as follows:

INT ENABLE bitsName Bits Description

INT EN SDI 2 Enable Data interrupt.INT EN SCI 1 Enable SCI interrupt.INT EN DAC 0 Enable DAC interrupt.

Note: It may take upto 6 clock cycles before changing INTENABLE has any effect.

Writing any value to INTGLOB DIS adds one to the interrupt counter INTCOUNTER and effectivelydisables all interrupts. It may take upto 6 clock cycles before writing to this register has any effect.

Writing any value to INTGLOB ENA subtracts one from the interrupt counter (unless INTCOUNTERalready was 0). If the interrupt counter becomes zero, interrupts selected with INTENABLE are re-stored. An interrupt routine should always write to this register as the last thing it does, because in-terrupts automatically add one to the interrupt counter, but subtracting it back to its initial value is theresponsibility of the user. It may take upto 6 clock cycles before writing this register has any effect.

By reading INTCOUNTER the user may check if the interrupt counter is correct or not. If the registeris not 0, interrupts are disabled.

Unless the user is feeding MP3 data at the same time, the system activates the user program in less than1 ms. After this, the user should steal interrupt vectors from the system, and insert user programs.

10.10 System Vector Functions

The System Vector Functions are pointers to some functions that the user may call to help implementinghis own applications.

10.10.1 WriteIRam(), 0x2

VS DSP C prototype:

void WriteIRam(register i0 u int16 *addr, register a1 u int16 msW, register a0 u int16 lsW);

This is the only supported way to write to the User Instruction RAM. This is because Instruction RAMcannot be written when program control is in RAM. Thus, the actual implementation of this function isin ROM, and here is simply a tag to that routine.

10.10.2 ReadIRam(), 0x4

VS DSP C prototype:

u int32 ReadIRam(registeri0 u int16 *addr);

This is the only supported way to read from the User Instruction RAM. This is because Instruction RAMcannot be read when program control is in RAM. Thus, the actual implementation of this function is inROM, and here is simply a tag to that routine.

A1 contains the MSBs and a0 the LSBs of the result.

10.10.3 DataBytes(), 0x6

VS DSP C prototype:

u int16 DataBytes(void);

If the user has taken over the normal operation of the system by switching the pointer in UserCodecto point to his own code, he may read data from the Data Interface through this and the following twofunctions.

This function returns the number of data bytes that can be read.

11 VS1011 Version Changes

This chapter describes changes between different generations of VS1011.

11.1 Changes Between VS1011b and VS1011e, 2005-07-13

• Faster decoding: all codecs, bitrates and bass + treble controls can be used at CLKI = 24 MHz.

• Register SCIBASS now also has a treble control (Chapter 8.6.3).Loudness plugin not required.

• Can play IMA ADPCM in mono and stereo (Chapter 8.2.4).

• Register space can now be written to with SCIWRAM (Chapter 8.6.7).

• Memory and register space can now be read from with SCIWRAM (Chapter 8.6.7).

• Added optional playback of MPEG 1 and 2 layers I and II. (Chapters 8.2.2, 8.2.1 and 8.6.1).

• SPI Boot added (Chapter 9.4).

• MPEG 1, 2 and 2.5 layer III decoding more robust against bit errors.

• MPEG 2.5 decoding compatibility enhanced.

• DREQ goes down during SCI operations. (Chapter 7.4).

• DREQ goes down during memory test. (Chapter 7.4).

• In VS1011e the SSVER field in SCISTATUS is 2.

11.2 Migration Checklist from VS1011b to VS1011e, 2005-07-13

• The SSVER field in SCISTATUS is 2. You can use SCISTATUS and SCIMODE to distin-guish between VS1002 and VS1011e. VS1011b has SSVER=1, SM SDINEW=0, VS1011e hasSSVER=2, SM SDINEW=0, and VS1002 has SSVER=2, SM SDINEW=1.

• Use built-in bass enhancer and treble control instead of the Loudness plugin. The loudness pluginworks, but the builtin controls are much faster.
