Channel limit for AVB Listener

Is it correct that 32 is the maximum number of channels that can be received by an AVB Listener as implemented on an xCORE-200? This could be received as a single stream of 32 channels, 2 streams of 16 channels, or 4 streams of 8 channels?

Hi Richard,
Yes, the default code supports a maximum 32 channels. If you download the code from our website you would certainly be able to change it to support higher channel counts.
One thing to be aware of is the number of 1 bit ports, if you are thinking about using i2s. You will certainly need to use TDM8 to support higher channel counts.
Best,
John

Thanks for the information John! I currently mix the incoming channels and only output 2 channels.

That's great that it's possible to receive higher channel counts - I will see if I can make that happen in my current project.

Regards, Richard.
