2.8.2 SAI Transmit Section

The transmit section of the SAI has five dedicated signals.

Reset Signal Description
SDO0 Output Driven
high Serial Data Output 0—SDO0 is the transmitter 0 serial output.
SDO0 is driven high if transmitter 0 is disabled, during
personal reset, hardware reset and software reset, or when the
chip is in the Stop state.
SDO1 Output Driven
high Serial Data Output 1—SDO1 is the transmitter 1 serial output.
SDO1 is driven high if transmitter 1 is disabled, during
personal reset, hardware reset and software reset, or when the
chip is in the Stop state.
SDO2 Output Driven
high Serial Data Output 2—SDO2 is the transmitter 2 serial output.
SDO2 is driven high if transmitter 2 is disabled, during
personal reset, hardware reset and software reset, or when the
chip is in the Stop state.
SCKT Input
or
Output
Tri-stated Transmit Serial Clock—This signal provides the clock for the
Serial Audio Interface (SAI). The SCKT signal can be an output
if the transmit section is programmed as a master, or a
Schmitt-trigger input if the transmit section is programmed as
a slave. When the SCKT is an output, it provides an internally
generated SAI transmit clock to external circuitry. When the
SCKT is an input, it allows external circuitry to clock data out
of the SAI.
SCKT is tri-stated if all transmitters are disabled (personal
reset), during hardware reset, software reset, or while the chip
is in the Stop state. No external pull-up is necessary.
WST Input
or
Output
Tri-stated Transmit Word Select—WST is an output if the transmit
section is programmed as a master, and a Schmitt-trigger input
if programmed as a slave. WST is used to synchronize the data
word and select the left/right portion of the data sample.
WST is tri-stated if all transmitters are disabled (personal
reset), during hardware or software reset, or while the chip is
in the Stop state. No external pull-up is necessary.
