TAS3251: Biquad values and gain scale.

Part Number: TAS3251

Tool/software:

Hi,

There are a few points I need clarification on about setting BQ resisters.

In the datasheet in section 7.5.2.4 (BQ Gain Scale) it says: "The BQ coefficients format is as follows: The *first* BQ has B0 = 5.x, B1 = 6.x, B2 = 5.x, A1 = 2.x, and A2 = 1.x."      But in slaa799a.pdf the *last* BQ seems to be gain scale. Which one is correct?

I thought the general idea to set the gain of every BQ to be less than 1, and then make up for it in the last BQ, but then there is this sentence in section 7.5.2.4: "The calculated k_BQ compensation value is then applied to the BQ gain scale in an 8.24 format."    Now I'm confused. Where does the 8.24 come from? looking at slaa799a.pdf, none of the registers are in 8.24 format. 

Your clarification is much appreciated.

Thanks

  • hi, 

    in the digital signal processing, the gain is ok to set larger than 1.

    for example, if we use 32bit for digital processing.

    if setting gain to 1, it means the data format is 1.31. 

    if set the format to 8.24, the gain can be set to 2^(8-1).

    i checked process flows, it seems eq is not 8.24 format.

    sorry for confusing, i will check inside and give you a reply.

    thanks
