Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of audio signal processing, and more specifically to an asynchronous upsampling decoding circuit based on a local master clock. Background Technology

[0002] While low-quality IIS output may meet consumer needs in terms of output noise, clock accuracy, and clock-data matching precision, it falls short of high-end (Hi-Fi) or high-fidelity (Hi-End) requirements. Low-quality IIS directly impacts the performance of the DA chip and severely affects the realism and liveliness of the listening experience. Therefore, minimizing the impact on the DA chip and improving the realism and liveliness of the listening experience is a crucial area of ​​research for those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides an asynchronous upsampling decoding circuit based on a local master clock to solve the problems existing in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] An asynchronous upsampling decoding circuit based on a local master clock includes a low-quality IIS / DSD output module, a DSP chip, and a DAC digital-to-analog converter connected in sequence.

[0006] Optionally, a FIFO data buffer is also included, through which the low-quality IIS / DSD output module is connected to the DAC digital-to-analog converter.

[0007] Optionally, a resampling circuit is also included, and the DSP chip is connected to the resampling circuit.

[0008] Optionally, a pre-amplifier digital filter circuit may also be included, and the DSP chip is connected to the pre-amplifier digital filter circuit.

[0009] Optionally, the DSP chip is an AK4137.

[0010] Optionally, the power supply for the DSP chip and the DAC digital-to-analog converter is a HiFi power supply.

[0011] As can be seen from the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, this utility model discloses an asynchronous upsampling decoding circuit based on a local master clock, which solves the problems of poor IIS / DSD quality, large time base jitter, and severe noise in digital audio decoding, and improves the performance, actual performance, and listening experience of the DA chip. Through FIFO and DSP processing of local clock regeneration, the output IIS / DSD quality is greatly improved, with jitter below 5ps, thereby enabling the back-end DA process to obtain a better analog output.

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0017] See Figures 1-3 This utility model discloses an asynchronous upsampling decoding circuit based on a local master clock, including a low-quality IIS / DSD output module, a DSP chip, and a DAC digital-to-analog converter connected in sequence.

[0018] The DSP chip is AK4137.

[0019] Furthermore, this embodiment also includes a FIFO data buffer, through which the low-quality IIS / DSD output module and the DAC digital-to-analog converter are connected.

[0020] Furthermore, this embodiment also includes a resampling circuit, and the DSP chip is connected to the resampling circuit.

[0021] Furthermore, this embodiment also includes a pre-amplifier digital filter circuit, and the DSP chip is connected to the pre-amplifier digital filter circuit.

[0022] Furthermore, the power supply for both the DSP chip and the DAC digital-to-analog converter is a Hi-Fi power supply. The DSP and DAC power supplies must be clean, independent Hi-Fi power supplies to isolate them from the influence of dirty IIS / DSD output modules.

[0023] Furthermore, the DSP chip is used to independently implement the asynchronous IIS / DSD generation process, while sharing the same master clock with the DAC. The master clock and the output IIS / DSD must be synchronized, and the data is driven by the master clock. If SRC is involved, it is equivalent to the ASRC process.

[0024] If upsampling or similar processes are involved, a Digital Filter (resampling) is required. This allows for the direct use of NOS DA to achieve higher DA speeds and a more comprehensive DA solution.
