DESCRIPTION
The DS2164Q ADPCM processor chip is a dedicated digital-signal-processing (DSP) chip that has been
optimized to perform adaptive-differential pulse-code modulation (ADPCM) speech compression at three
different rates. The chip can be programmed to compress (expand) 64kbps voice data down to (up from)
either 32kbps, 24kbps, or 16kbps. The compression to 32kbps follows the algorithm specified by CCITT
Recommendation G.726. The DS2164Q can switch compression algorithms on-the-fly. This allows the
user to make maximum use of the available bandwidth on a dynamic basis.
Note:
Some revisions of this device may incorporate deviations from published specifications known as errata. Multiple
revisions of any device may be simultaneously available through various sales channels. For information about device errata,

DS2164Q
OVERVIEW
The DS2164Q contains three major functional blocks: a high performance (10 MIPS) DSP engine, two
independent PCM interfaces (X and Y) that connect directly to serial time-division-multiplexed (TDM)
backplanes, and a serial port that can configure the device on-the-fly by an external controller. A 10MHz
master clock is required by the DSP engine. The DS2164Q can be configured to perform either two
expansions, two compressions, or one expansion and one compression. The PCM/ADPCM data interfaces
support data rates from 256kHz to 4.096MHz. Typically, the PCM data rates are 1.544MHz for
m-law
and
2.048MHz for A-law. Each channel on the device samples the serial input PCM or ADPCM bit stream
during a user-programmed input time slot, processes the data and outputs the result during a user-
programmed output time slot.
Each PCM interface has a control register that specifies functional characteristics (compress, expand,
bypass, and idle), data format (m-law or A-law), and algorithm reset control. With the SPS pin strapped
high, the software mode is enabled and the serial port can be used to configure the device. In this mode, a
novel addressing scheme allows multiple devices to share a common 3-wire control bus, simplifying
system-level interconnect.
With SPS low, the hardware mode is enabled. This mode disables the serial port and maps certain control
register bits to some of the address and serial port pins. Under the hardware mode, no external host
controller is required and all PCM/ADPCM input and output time slots default to time slot 0.
HARDWARE RESET
RST
allows the user to reset both channel algorithms and the contents of the internal registers. This pin
must be held low for at least 1ms on system power-up after the master clock is stable to ensure that the
device has initialized properly.
RST
should also be asserted when changing to or from the hardware
mode.
RST
clears all bits of the control register for both channels except the IPD bits; the IPD bits for
both channels are set to 1.
SOFTWARE MODE
Connecting SPS high enables the software mode. In this mode, an external host controller writes
configuration data to the DS2164Q by the serial port through inputs SCLK, SDI, and
CS
(Figure 2). Each
write to the DS2164Q is either a 2-byte write or a 4-byte write. A 2-byte write consists of the
address/command byte (ACB), followed by a byte to configure the control register (CR) for either the X
or Y channel. The 4-byte write consists of the ACB, followed by a byte to configure the CR, and then 1
byte to set the input time slot and another byte to set the output time slot.
ADDRESS/COMMAND BYTE
In the software mode, the address/command byte is the first byte written to the serial port; it identifies
which of the 64 possible ADPCM processors sharing the port wiring is to be updated. Address data must
match that at inputs A0 to A5. If no match occurs, the device ignores the following configuration data. If
an address match occurs, the next 3 bytes written are accepted as control, input and output time slot data.
Bit ACB.6 determines which side (X or Y) of the device is to be updated. The PCM and ADPCM outputs
are tri-stated during register updates.

CONTROL REGISTER
The control register establishes idle, algorithm reset, bypass, data format, and channel coding for the
selected channel.
The X-side and Y-side PCM interfaces can be independently disabled (output tri-stated) by IPD. When
IPD is set for both channels, the device enters a low-power standby mode. In this mode, the serial port
must not be operated faster than 39kHz.
ALRST resets the algorithm coefficients for the selected channel to their initial values. ALRST is cleared
by the device when the algorithm reset is complete.

Note:
A 2-byte write is shown.
The bypass feature is enabled when BYP is set and IPD is cleared. During bypass, no expansion or
compression occurs. Bypass operates on bytewide (8 bits) slots when CP/
EX
is set and on nibble-wide
(4 bits) slots when CP/
EX
is cleared.
A-law (U/

m-law
(U/

by CR.2. If BYP and IPD are cleared, then CP/
EX
determines if the input data is to be compressed or
expanded.
