MCLK and I2S Slave ?

Post by AlexAdvice »

Does MCLK required if I use I2S Slave Mode?

Usually, LRCLK and BCLK is enough, but maybe with XMOS also MCLK need?

Hi,

no the I2S slave does not need a separate MCLK. See the information on creating an i2s_slave component in the I2S/TDM library document.

CousinItt is right - it's all done from the BCLK. However you didn't say whether you are using USB audio I2S or lib_i2s. If using the former, MCLK is still needed for the feedback calculation to the host for the ISO endpoint in asynch mode as standard.
