The 6713DSK board uses the AIC23 stereo codec for analog I/O on 2 channels; we have developed modem software to run on this board using 24 kHz sample rate EDMA, with block transfers, and this runs on our custom hardware board, using the same devices. We need to add two more channels, to give 4 channel Input (1 channel of output is fine); what is the best hardware approach to manage this?
If we add a second AIC23 codec, paralleling up the clock and data, with an additional slave-select, can we still use EDMA to gather parallel data from both codecs? Or is there a better 4-channel device that we could use? The low-power of the AIC23 is nice, but isn't absolutely necessary.
Our requirement needs at least 16-bit resolution, sampled currently at 24 kHz (although this rate could be reduced to 12 kHz to save processing resource). 24-bit or better isn't really necessary at the minute.
Best regards,
