Hi
We plan to use SAI1 as the slave mode and codec side is the master mode. But we still want use MCLK to serve the clock to codec. Does it work for this configuration?
Thanks.
Franky.
I have the same question as the original poster: If the i.MX7 is slave, and the (external) master provides the bitclock (BCLK, configured as input on i.MX7), is it necessary to drive the MCLK on the i.MX7 or can it be unconnected?
If is must be driven, may it be driven with the BCLK?
This is totally unclear from the reference manual.
Do you mean whatever we use master mode(transmitter) or slave mode (receiver), the MCLK can be a clock output?
Hi Franky
seems not as described in sect.13.8.3.1.1 Audio master clock i.MX7 RM :
The audio master clock is used to generate the bit clock when the receiver or transmitter
is configured for an internally generated bit clock.
