correction for the DCC system
Product specification
SAA2022
The SAA2022 provides the following functions:
In Playback Modes
• Tape channel data and clock recovery
• 10 to 8 demodulation
• Data placement in DRAM
• C1 and C2 error correction decoding
• I2S-interfacing to SB-I2S-bus
• Interfacing to microcontroller for SYSINFO and
AUX data
• Capstan control for tape deck.
In Record Modes
• I2S-interfacing to SB-I2S-bus
• C1 and C2 error correction encoding
• Formatting for tape transfer
• 8 to 10 modulation
• Interfacing to microcontroller for SYSINFO and
AUX data
• Capstan control for tape deck, programmable by
microcontroller.
Operational Modes
The 3 basic modes of operation are:
• DPAP - Main data (audio) and SYSINFO play, AUX play
• DRAR - Main data (audio) and SYSINFO record,
AUX record
• DPAR - Main data (audio) and SYSINFO play,
AUX record.
PWRDWN
This pin is an active HIGH signal which places the
SAA2022 in a “SLEEP” mode. When the SAA2022 is in
“SLEEP” mode and the CLK24 is either held HIGH or held
LOW, there is no activity in the device, thus resulting in
no EMI and a low power dissipation (typically <10% of
operational dissipation). This pin should be connected to
the DCC power-down signal, which can be driven by the
system microcontroller.
To enter the “SLEEP” mode the SAA2022 should reset
and hold reset. After a delay of at least 15 µs the
PWRDWN pin should be brought HIGH after which the
state of the reset pin is “don’t care”. The power dissipation
is reduced further when the CLK24 input signal stops.
When recovering from “SLEEP” mode the PWRDWN pin
should be driven LOW and the chip reset with a pulse of at
least 15 µs duration.
CLK24
This is the 24.576 MHz clock input and should be
connected directly to the SAA2002 CLK24 pin.
Connections to SAA2032
TCH0 TO TCH7 AND TAUX
These lines are the equalized and clipped (to VDD) tape
channel inputs and should be connected to the SAA2032
pins TCH0 to TCH7 and TAUX.
Sub-band I2S-bus Connections
The timing for the SB-I2S-interface is given in Figs 4 to 9.
Hardware Interfacing
RESET
This is an active HIGH input signal which resets the
SAA2022 and brings it into its default mode, DPAP. This
should be connected to the system reset, which can be
driven by the microcontroller. The duration of the reset
pulse should be at least 15 µs. This pin has an internal
pull-down resistor of between 20 kΩ and 125 kΩ.
