TLV320AIC3120: About Audio signal path setting & Class-D Driver Output power down

Michael Jeong1

Part Number: TLV320AIC3120

Hello Expert,

I have some question.

Our customer wants to control on/off intersection of Speaker and HPOUT signal path.
At this time, whenever Class-D Driver and HPOUT Driver are turned on/off at the intersection, Power Up/Down setting is also performed.
Page 1 / Register 32 / bit 7:7 of the Class-D Driver was changed to "0" intermittently, and speaker output is not work.
However, there is no problem in Page 1 / Register 31 / bit 7:7 of HPOUT Driver.

1. Is there a case where the bit 7:7 = '0' is automatically changed even though the Class-D Driver's Page 1 / Register 32 / bit 7:7 = '1" is set?

2. When our customer wants to control on/off intersection of Speaker and HPOUT signal path, please send the register setting sequence that can be set most simply in text file or excel file.
In my opinion, if I set Power Up of the Class-D Driver and HPOUT Driver at the beginning, and control only with Class-D Driver Mute On/Off and HPOUT Mute On/Off, I think that there may no issue, How about your opinion?

I'm looking forward to receiving your good feedback ASAP.

Best regards,

Michael

Hi,

- See section 7.3.12.12.2 for speaker output for more information of possible shut down scenario.

- There's no particular order of shutting these output. You can recommend your suggestion to them instead of shutting it down use the mute feature.

Regards.

Hi Pdjuandi

Thanks for your guide and feedback.

When I checked value on page 1 / register 32 / bit D0, D0 is "0".

So short circuit event was not occurred.

But Class-D output driver was powered down.

Could you please check what's the root cause? and whether the below customer code has some fault or not ?

If you need more information, let me know it.

Check the interrupt flags register 37 and 44 to confirm the status. If no short circuit then it's likely it's written/configured to power it down.

One suggestion is to swap these steps, unmute first then power up:

write_i2c_bitmask(Page 1 - Reg 32, mask = 0x80, val = 0x80); // Power-up Class-D drivers

write_i2c_bitmask(Page 1 - Reg 42, mask = 0x04, val = 0x04); // Unmute Class-D Left
