Clockworks Signal Processing
Widest selection of A2B (2 sample fixed low latency multichannel audio on twisted pair)
products to accelerate your design schedule.
Our Products
Clockworks products are designed to give developers and OEM system builders a fast and easy way to create new products with minimal investment in hardware design.
A2B Products
Analog Devices’ A2B® bus provides up to 32 channels of bidirectional digital audio over low cost unshielded twisted pair.
SignalBlox2
SignalBlox2® was created to address the many needs that system developers face
Systems
The system collections are bundles of boards and accessories that are targeted for a specific use.
Clockworks specializes in hardware products to enable developers and OEMs to quickly create complex signal processing systems with off-the-shelf hardware. Unlike development platforms, Clockworks’ product line is designed to create robust deployable solutions. The open source philosophy of the SignalBlox2 system of peripherals like ADC and DACS and connector options (RCA, screw terminals, etc) makes it easy to customize functions to specific use cases without needing to create an entire system from scratch.
In addition to A2B hardware Clockworks offers companion ADC and DACs, along with options for DSP using Analog Devices Sigma DSP products. Custom high performance mixed signal audio design and evaluation is a standard part of our services, with a full bench of audio test equipment from Audio Precision, Spectral Solutions and more.

Clockworks has had a long partnership with Cloud2GND for Bluetooth hardware, software, and stack development. If your product needs Bluetooth Classic or LE get in touch. We support a full range of Bluetooth applications, and have extensive experience with using Bluetooth LE audio in both standard applications like Auracast as well as custom BLE audio applications in commercial and public service applications.
Safely connect UTP 2 wire A2B to RJ45 style A2B hardware.
This article looks at systems that use Analog Devices' CFG4 (24 V, 2 A) bus power scheme. AD2437 based systems support CFG4. Older AD242x parts as well as parts like the AD2433 are intended for use with CFG0 (9 V, 300 mA) bus power. For Clockworks boards with UTP...
Bus powered A2B MEMs mic board power estimation
All of the Clockworks mic modules are designed to be used with CFG0 (9 V) bus power. This includes all of the AD242x devices and the AD2433. Parts that use CFG4 (24 V) bus power, such as the AD2437, cannot be used directly. Clockworks offers a line of A2B...
Using XMOS XVF3800 Vocal Fusion EVM with A2B
There are several ways to connect Clockworks A2B modules to external hardware with I2S connections. Recently Clockworks needed to assist with a customer application where the initial proof of concept would use an XMOS XVF3800 based board to provide audio processing...
