Chapter 2
Functional Description
This chapter describes the features and different interfaces of 8-CH DMIC board.
2.1 Power supply
This section describes the power supply on 8-CH DMIC board.
2.1.1 Main power supply
The 8-CH DMIC board can accept from 1.8 V up to 3.6 V for operation from the main board through J1 interface connector.
2.1.2 Secondary power supply
The MCP1256T device (U35) generates a 3.3 V output voltage from 1.8V input supply. The 3.3 V power supply is used for:
• Onboard LEDs [D1:D7]
• SX1502I087TRT GPIO expander used for LEDs
2.2 DMIC interface
A total of 11 DMICs are available on the DMIC board, however, at most, eight DMICs are in use simultaneously.
The below figure describes the different DMICs placement on the board.
