TLV320ADC3101: Sample(delay) time

Part Number: TLV320ADC3101

Hi team,

Our customer is using 4 pcs TLV320ADC3101 to design a MIC array with 8 MIC. They need to sample the 8 MIC at the same time. However, when work in I2S TDM mode, the 4 pcs TLV320ADC3101's output data comes one by one.

I would like to know if this device is suitable for this kind of MIC array application. If yes, could we guarantee all 8 MIC will be sampled at the same time? If not, could you please advise suitable device?

Thanks!

Best regards,

Vio Liu

  • Hi, Vio,

    The TLV320ADC3101 can be used for this application without issues. The sampling of the microphones is determined by the I²S clocks that are provided to the device, so as long as the I²S clocks are valid and are synchronized for the four devices, the mics will be sampled at the same time.
