................CRST: AC’97 Software Reset Signal Control

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This bit controls the CRST# signal.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“0”: Inactive (CRST#=High)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“1”: Active (CRST#=Low)

 

(default)

................WRST: AC’97 Warm Reset

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This bit places the AC’97 in warm reset condition when the BIT_CLK signal on the AC’97 remains in

 

 

inactive state. If this bit is set to “1”, it will automatically return to “0” after 1.3µs time duration. This

 

 

 

bit is valid only while the ACLS bit is set to “0”. Except in this case, even if this bit is attempted to be

 

 

 

set to “1”, no warm reset will be generated (write operation of “1” remains disabled).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“0”: Normal

 

(default)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“1”: AC’97 Warm Reset

................ACLS: AC-Link Status

(Read Only)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This bit indicates whether or not the AC-link is active. This bit is “1” when the AC-link remains in active state (the BIT_CLK signal is active). This bit is “0” during the following conditions:

-When the CRST# pin is active (CRST#=Low)

-When either the PR4 bit or PR5 bit of 4A-4Bh: DS-1S Power Control 1 register is set to “1”

“0”: AC’97

Inactive (default)

“1”: AC’97
