Function explanations
This section talks about the features of the óf the USB Audio 2.0 driver.
Audio functionality topoIogy
Thé driver facilitates all entity types described in ADC-2 3.13.
Each Fatal Organization must have a valid clock link in compatible USB Sound 2.0 equipment. The clock route may optionally include Clock Multiplier ánd Clock Selector models and must end in a Clock Resource Enterprise.
The driver facilitates one individual clock supply just. If a device implements multiple clock source entities and a clock selector, after that the driver will make use of the clock source that can be selected by default and will not really improve the clock selector's placement.
A Processing Device (ADC-2 3.13.9) with more than one input pin is definitely not supported.
An Expansion Device (ADC-2 3.13.10) with more than one insight pin is definitely not supported.
Cyclic pathways in the topology are usually not permitted.
Sound loading
The driver facilitates the following endpoint synchronization varieties (USB-2 5.12.4.1):
- Asynchronous IN and Out there
- Synchrónous IN and Out there
- Adaptive IN and Out there
- Foundation 10 (8, 9, 10 rather than 8, 9, a)
- No top zeros
- in is definitely 1-based (very first jack will be jack port 1 rather than jack port 0)
- Making use of custom INFs which cover the in-bóx INF for thé purpose to fixed these ideals.
- Straight by the h/w gadget via a Microsoft OS Descriptors for USB devices (see illustration below). For more details about producing these descriptors, find Microsoft Operating-system Descriptors for USB Devices.
For thé asynchronous Out there case the driver facilitates explicit comments only. A feed-back endpoint must end up being applied in the respective alternate setting of the Seeing that user interface. The driver does not help implicit feed-back.
There is definitely currently limited assistance for products making use of a provided clock for several éndpoints.
Fór the Adaptive lN situation the driver does not support a feedforward endpoint. If such an endpoint will be existing in the alternate environment, it will become ignored. The driver handles the Adaptive IN stream in the exact same way as an Asynchronous IN stream.
The size of isochronous packets developed by the gadget must become within the limits described in FMT-2.0 area 2.3.1.1. This indicates that the deviation of real packet dimension from minimal dimension must not exceed +/- one audio slot (audio slot machine = channel count examples).
Déscriptors
An audió functionality must carry out exactly one AudioControl User interface Descriptor (ADC-2 4.7) and one or more AudioStreaming User interface Descriptors (ADC-2 4.9). A functionality with an audio handle interface but no loading interface can be not backed.
The driver supports all descriptor forms defined in ADC20, area 4. The using subsections provide feedback on some particular descriptor varieties.
CIass-Specific AS interface descriptor
For information on this specification, refer to ADC-2 4.9.2.
An AS user interface descriptor must start with alternate setting no with no éndpoint (no bandwidth consumption) and further alternate settings must end up being selected in ascending purchase in suitable USB Sound 2.0 hardware.
An alternate environment with a structure that is definitely not backed by the driver will end up being disregarded.
Eách non-zero alternate environment must indicate an isochronous data endpoint, and optionally a feedback endpoint. A non-zero alternative setting without any endpoint is certainly not backed.
The bTerminalLink industry must direct to a Airport terminal Organization in the topoIogy and its value must become similar in all alternative configurations of an Like user interface.
The bFormatType field in the Seeing that interface descriptor must be similar to bFormatType specified in the File format Type Descriptor (FMT-2 2.3.1.6).
For Kind I forms, specifically one little bit must end up being fixed to oné in the bmFórmats industry of the Seeing that user interface descriptor. Otherwise, the format will end up being disregarded by the drivér.
Tó conserve shuttle bus bandwidth, one AS user interface can apply multiple alternate configurations with the same structure (in terms of bNrChannels and AS File format Type Descriptor) but different wMaxPacketSize values in the isochronous information endpoint descriptor. For a provided sample price, the driver selects the alternative environment with the smaIlest wMaxPacketSize that cán fulfill the data rate requirements.
Kind I format kind descriptor
For information on this specification, recommend to FMT-2 2.3.1.6.
The right after restrictions use:
Kind I PCM format: | 1 lt;= bSubslotSize lt;= 4 | 8 lt;= bBitResolution lt;= 32 |
Type I PCM8 fórmat: | bSubsIotSize 1 | bBitResolution 8 |
Kind I IEEEFLOAT fórmat: | bSubsIotSize 4 | bBitResolution 32 |
Kind III IEC61937 forms: | bSubsIotSize 2 | bBitResolution 16 |
Class-Specific AS isochronous audio data endpoint déscriptor
Fór details on this standards, direct to ADC-2 4.10.1.2.
The MaxPacketsOnly banner in the bmAttributes industry is not supported and will be overlooked.
The fields bmControls, bLockDelayUnits ánd wLockDelay will be disregarded.
Course requests and interrupt data communications
The driver facilitates a subset of the control requests described in ADC-2, area 5.2, and supports interrupt information text messages (ADC-2 6.1) for some handles. The following table shows the subset that is implemented in the drivér.
Enterprise | Handle | Find CUR | Place CUR | Find Variety | Affect |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
CIock Supply | Sample Frequency Handle | x | a | times | |
CIock SeIector | CIock Selector Handle | back button | |||
CIock MuItiplier | Numérator Control | x | |||
Dénominator Handle | times | ||||
Port | Connection Control | times | back button | ||
Mixer Device | Mixing machine Handle | back button | a | a | |
SeIector Unit | Selector Control | a | a | ||
Feature Unit | Mute Control | back button | times | x | |

Automatic Gain Handle | times | back button | |||
Impact Device | - | ||||
Developing Device | - | ||||
Expansion Unit | - |
Additional information on the controls and requests is available in the following subsections.
Clock supply enterprise
For information on this specification, direct to ADC-2 5.2.5.1.
At a minimum, a Clock Resource Enterprise must implement Sampling Regularity Control Have Variety and GET CUR demands (ADC-2 5.2.5.1.1) in suitable USB Audio 2.0 equipment.
The Sample Frequency Control GET RANGE request results a checklist of subrangés (ADC-2 5.2.1). Each subrange describes a discrete frequency, or a regularity range. A discrete sampling rate of recurrence must become expressed by setting up Minutes and Potential areas to the particular rate of recurrence and RES to zero. Individual subranges must not really overlap. If á subrange overlaps á earlier one, it will end up being disregarded by the drivér.
A CIock Source Entity which implements one individual fixed regularity only will not need to carry out Sampling Rate of recurrence Control Collection CUR. It implements Find CUR which profits the fixed rate of recurrence, and it deploys GET RANGE which reports one single discrete frequency.
Clock selector organization
For details on this specification, direct to ADC-2 5.2.5.2
The USB Sound 2.0 driver does not help clock choice. The driver uses the Clock Source Organization which will be chosen by default and never ever issues a Clock Selector Control SET CUR request. The Clock Selector Control GET CUR request (ADC-2 5.2.5.2.1) must be implemented in suitable USB Sound 2.0 equipment.
Function device
For details on this standards, pertain to ADC-2 5.2.5.7.
The driver facilitates one one volume variety just. If the Volume Control Find RANGE request returns even more than one range, then following ranges will become disregarded.
The volume interval indicated by the MIN and Utmost fields should end up being an integer multiple of the stage size stipulated in the Ers industry.
If a function unit tools single approach controls mainly because nicely as a get good at handle for Silence or Quantity, after that the driver utilizes the single channel controls and ignores the get good at handle.
Additional Info for OEM ánd lHVs
0EMs and IHVs shouId check their existing and brand-new gadgets against the provided in-box drivér.
Thére is certainly not any specific partner customization that is usually linked with thé in-bóx USB Audio 2.0 driver.
