4. Audio Processing
4.1. Introduction
4.2. Input Select
The audio processing allows input selection and vol-
ume control for mono audio sources either from tuner
or from SCART input.
Both audio output channels can be switched to any of
the three audio input channels. Only the audio output
channel AOUT1 can be volume controlled.
4.3. Volume Control
AIN1
AIN2
The analog volume control covers a range from
+18 dB and −75 dB. The lowest step is the mute posi-
tion. Step size is split into a 3-dB and a 1.5-dB range.

4.4. I2C-Bus Slave Interface
The input selection and analog volume is controlled via
the audio control register ACON. This I2C register is
activated by the chip address of the video back-end
processing (see Table 2–2 on page 32).
