Description of the audio processor

six soft-mute pins low (hardware-mute) or by assessing the corresponding programming bits

(software-mute).

For the In-section, a soft-mute is always stereo for each of the three signal-paths and the

bus-triggered mute exactly corresponds to the pin-triggered mute, with the exception that

the later is inherently faster in response. This behavior is also true for the Out-section, but

here the bus-triggered mute is independent for all six single L/R-channels.

All mute-pins have internal pull-ups connected to a 3,3Volts reference that allow the

connection to either a 3,3V- or a 5V-microproccessor. Reverse flowing currents are limited to

100µA, so that the mute-pins may be driven by both, open-drain or push-pull outputs.

The envelope slope of the soft-mute was realized in a special S-shaped curve to soften the

mute transitions in the critical regions (see Figure 20). The completion time for full mute / no

mute is programmable by I2C/SPI-bus in four different values.

Soft-mute signal envelope versus time

Note:

A triggered mute is always completed and cannot be interrupted by a change of the initial

mute condition.

For the programming of the soft-mute, see the programming chapter.

Spectrum analyzer

A fully integrated seven-band spectrum analyzer is present in the TDA7415CB (Figure 21).

The spectrum analyzer consists of seven band pass filters followed by rectifiers with sample

capacitors that store the maximum peak signal level for each band since the last read cycle.

This peak signal level can be read by a microprocessor at the SAout-pin. To allow easy

interfacing to an analog input-port of a microprocessor, the output voltage at this pin is

referred to device ground. Since the output voltage follows the peak level linearly, the

microprocessor should take care for a logarithmic conversion (e.g. logarithmic look-up

table).
