ES1868 AudioDrive Solution Product Brief
®

DESCRIPTION
The ES1868 AudioDrive® solution is a mixed-signal single-chip solution that adds 16-bit stereo sound and FM music synthesis to personal computers. It includes an embedded microprocessor, an OPL3TM superset ESFMTM music synthesizer, 16-bit stereo wave CODEC, 16-bit stereo music DAC, hardware master volume control, MPU-401 UART mode serial port, dual game port, full Plug and Play support, CD-ROM IDE interface, two serial port interfaces to external DSP and external ES689/ES69x wavetable music synthesizer, DMA control logic with FIFO, and ISA bus interface logic. There are three stereo inputs (typically line-in, CD audio, and auxiliary line-in) and a mono microphone input to an internal preamp. All of this is embodied in a single chip that can be designed into a motherboard, add-on card, or integrated into other peripheral cards such as voice/fax/modem, VGA, LAN, I/O, etc. The ES1868 AudioDrive can record, compress, and play back voice, sound, and music with built-in mixer controls. Using two high-performance DMA channels, the ES1868 supports fullduplex analog operation for simultaneous record and playback. The ESFMTM synthesizer has extended capabilities within native mode operation providing superior sound and power down capabilities. It is register compatible to OPL3.

EEPROM

Record and Playback Features Record, compress, and play back voice, sound, and music 16-bit stereo ADC and DAC Programmable sample rates from 4 kHz to 44.1 kHz for record
and playback

The ES1868 AudioDrive® supports the full ISA Plug and Play standard. It provides Plug and Play configuration for logical devices: audio, ESFMTM synthesizer, game port, MPU-401, CDROM IDE, modem, and an additional user defined device. The MPU-401 hardware is for interfacing to an external MIDI serial port. The ES1868 music DAC allows the use of an external ES689/ES69x wavetable sythesizer through the ES1868's third serial port. The dual game port supports two joysticks both having X, Y resistor value settings and two pushbutton switches. A DSP serial interface allows an external DSP to take over ADC or DAC resources. I/O address, DMA, and interrupt selection can be controlled by system software. Advanced power management features include suspend/resume from disk or host-independent self-timed power-down and automatic wake-up. The ES1868 AudioDrive solution is available in an industrystandard 100-pin Plastic Quad Flat Pack (PQFP) package.

Analog supply voltage (4.5 to 5.5 V). Should be greater than or equal to VDDD -0.3 V. Filter outputs left and right. AC coupled externally to CIN_L and CIN_R to remove DC offsets. These outputs have internal series resistors of about 5K . Capacitors to analog ground on these pins can be used to create a low-pass filter pole that removes switching noise introduced by the switched-capacitor filters. Capacitive coupled inputs left and right. These inputs have internal pull-up resistors to CMR of approximately 50K . Line input left and right. LINE_L and LINE_R have internal pull-up resistors to CMR. Line level stereo outputs, left and right. Modem interrupt enable input. Generated from the modem UART.
