Clockworks’ A2B module offers developers a simple way to develop A2B products by creating prototypes based on the A2B module connected to EVM board(s) for the desired peripheral functions. Typically Clockworks’ A2B module is used with ADC or DAC boards, but can also be used with things like class D amplifier devices with direct I2S input or digital microphones with I2S output.
The module uses the latest generation ADI transceiver, the AD2428W. The module can operate as a master or slave node device. It requires external power, i.e. it is not a phantom powered node.
While I2S is mostly used for audio data, the actual data carried can be anything that fits the bit depth (16, 24, or 32) and rates (44.1, 48, 96 kHz) that A2B supports.
The Clockworks A2B module is available with an EVM kit.
Clockworks maintains a page on Analog Devices PartnerZone site where you can find further technical information as well as ask general questions about A2B and using Clockworks’ products.
