TLV320AIC3106: Does it support 6 audio input together ?

Part Number: TLV320AIC3106

Dear all

      I have six channels audio inputs to the device, two of inputs are MIC, four of inputs are coming from camera, but I have some questions about this device,as below:

      1. Does TLV320AIC3106 deal with six audio inputs together ? So that loss any audio input.

      2. Does the MIC3R and MIC3L pins connect to the MIC? 

  • Went,

    1. The TLV320AIC3106 can accept 6 inputs at once. You are probably already aware that there are only 2 ADCs so your digital output will of course be a mix of the inputs.
    2. you can connect any of the input pins to microphones. its up to you.

    best regards,

    1.   “You are probably already aware that there are only 2 ADCs so your digital output will of course be a mix of the inputs ”

          I don't understand,  only 2 ADCs, that means accepting 2 inputs one times?

    2.  You said can accept 6 inputs, how to deal with 6 inputs from 2 ADC ?

  • Went,

    1. Please refer to the data sheet for all sorts of useful information about this device.  

    I've attached a functional block diagram that came from the Datasheet see below:

    as you can see there are 2 ADCs and 6 inputs.  The inputs can be summed or switched.  so you can have 6 analog inputs,  but there are always only 2 digital outputs.  hopefully this is clear?  

    2.  Hopefully this is clear?

  • Dear Steve

           Thanks your detail reply, but I think there is only one that I can not understand.

           You said "The inputs can be summed or switched", does it mean that only deal with 2 inputs at one time ? not deal with  6 inputs at one time ?

  • Went,

    There is something that I don't understand about your question.  

    does it mean that only deal with 2 inputs at one time ? not deal with  6 inputs at one time ?

    "Deal with"  is not really a technical term and is quite broad in terms of what it means.   The AIC3106 can "deal with" all 6 inputs at once in that it can sum the 6 inputs, or switch between the 6 inputs to provide 2 digital output channels,  however it can not provide 6 individual digital outputs for each of those inputs.
