DAC Design with PCM1795 and STM32
Table
| Function | Schematic Net | STM32 Peripheral | Direction | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bit clock | I2S_BCK | SPI/I2Sx_CK | MCU → DAC | Select an STM32 I2S-capable pin. |
| Word select | I2S_LRCK | SPI/I2Sx_WS | MCU → DAC | Also called LRCK/WS. |
| Audio data | I2S_DATA | SPI/I2Sx_SD | MCU → DAC | PCM audio data stream. |
| Master clock | I2S_MCLK | SPI/I2Sx_MCK | MCU → DAC | Use if the PCM1795 board requires external MCLK. |
| Control clock | SPI_SCK | SPIx_SCK | MCU → DAC | PCM1795 control port. |
| Control data in | SPI_MOSI | SPIx_MOSI | MCU → DAC | Register writes. |
| Control data out | SPI_MISO | SPIx_MISO | DAC → MCU | Optional, if DAC board exposes readback. |
| Chip select | DAC_CS | GPIO output | MCU → DAC | Active level to confirm from board. |
| Reset | DAC_RST | GPIO output | MCU → DAC | Active level to confirm from board. |
| Mute | DAC_MUTE | GPIO output | MCU → DAC | Active level to confirm from board. |
