4.1. SDI Audio Embed Parameters
The following table lists the parameters for the SDI Audio Embed IP core.
Parameter |
Value |
Description |
---|---|---|
Number of supported audio groups |
1, 2, 3, 4 |
Specifies the maximum number of audio groups supported. Each audio group consists of 4 audio channels (2 channel pairs). You must specify all the four channels to the same sample frequencies. |
Async Audio Interface |
On or Off |
Turn on to enable the Asynchronous input. This mode supports an audio clock equal to or higher than 64 × sample rate. |
Parallel Audio Interface |
On or Off |
Turn on to send AES data in parallel mode with a 32-bit parallel interface. Requires Async Audio Interface to be turned on. |
Frequency of fix_clk | 0, 24.576, 25, 50, 100, 200 |
Sets the expected frequency of the fix_clk input; used as frequency reference when detecting the difference between video rate of 1/1.000 or 1/1.001. Setting this parameter to 0 drives fix_clk low. The Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software does not support this parameter. |
Include SD-SDI 24-bit support | On or Off |
Enables the embedding of SD-SDI Extended Data Packets (EDP) for each audio group. |
Cleanly remove existing audio | 0,1, 2 |
Enables the removal of existing embedded audio data. When set to 1, the system requires extra storage to delay the video and remove any existing audio from SD-SDI, HD-SDI, or 3G-SDI Level A standard. When set to 2, the system includes extra storage to remove the existing audio from 3G-SDI Level B standard. Select 0 to turn off this parameter. The Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software does not support this parameter. |
Channel status RAM | 0,1, 2 |
Enables storage of the custom channel status data. Select 1 to generate a single channel status RAM, or 2 to generate separate RAMs for each input audio pair. Select 0 to turn off this parameter. |
Frequency sine wave generator | On or Off |
Turn on to enable a four-frequency sine wave generator. You can use the four-frequency sine wave generator as a test source for the audio embedder. |
Include clock | On or Off |
Turn on to enable a 48-kHz pulse generator synchronous to the video clock. You can use the 48-kHz pulse generator to request data from a sample rate converter. When you turn on the Frequency Sine Wave Generator parameter, the core automatically includes this pulse generator. |
Include Avalon-ST interface | On or Off |
Turn on to include the SDI Clocked Audio Output IP core. When you turn on this parameter, the Avalon-ST interface signals appear at the top level. Otherwise, the audio input signals appear at the top level. |
Include Avalon-MM control interface | On or Off |
Turn on to include the Avalon-MM control interface. When you turn on this parameter, the register interface signals appear at the top level. Otherwise, the direct control interface signals appear at the top level. |
