Functions

uint32_t dmic_build_channel_map(uint8_t channel, uint8_t pdm, enum pdm_lr lr)

Build the channel map to populate struct pdm_chan_cfg

Returns the map of PDM controller and LEFT/RIGHT channel shifted to the bit position corresponding to the input logical channel value

Return

Bit-map containing the PDM and L/R channel information

Parameters

  • channel: The logical channel number

  • pdm: The PDM hardware controller number

  • lr: LEFT/RIGHT channel within the chosen PDM hardware controller

void dmic_parse_channel_map(uint32_t channel_map_lo, uint32_t channel_map_hi, uint8_t channel, uint8_t *pdm, enum pdm_lr *lr)

Helper function to parse the channel map in pdm_chan_cfg

Returns the PDM controller and LEFT/RIGHT channel corresponding to the channel map and the logical channel provided as input

Return

none

Parameters

  • channel_map_lo: Lower order/significant bits of the channel map

  • channel_map_hi: Higher order/significant bits of the channel map

  • channel: The logical channel number

  • pdm: Pointer to the PDM hardware controller number

  • lr: Pointer to the LEFT/RIGHT channel within the PDM controller

uint32_t dmic_build_clk_skew_map(uint8_t pdm, uint8_t skew)

Build a bit map of clock skew values for each PDM channel

Returns the bit-map of clock skew value shifted to the bit position corresponding to the input PDM controller value

Return

Bit-map containing the clock skew information

Parameters

  • pdm: The PDM hardware controller number

  • skew: The skew to apply for the clock output from the PDM controller

int dmic_configure(const struct device *dev, struct dmic_cfg *cfg)

Configure the DMIC driver and controller(s)

Configures the DMIC driver device according to the number of channels, channel mapping, PDM I/O configuration, PCM stream configuration, etc.

Return

0 on success, a negative error code on failure

Parameters

  • dev: Pointer to the device structure for DMIC driver instance

  • cfg: Pointer to the structure containing the DMIC configuration

int dmic_trigger(const struct device *dev, enum dmic_trigger cmd)

Send a command to the DMIC driver

Sends a command to the driver to perform a specific action

Return

0 on success, a negative error code on failure

Parameters

  • dev: Pointer to the device structure for DMIC driver instance

  • cmd: The command to be sent to the driver instance

int dmic_read(const struct device *dev, uint8_t stream, void **buffer, size_t *size, int32_t timeout)

Read received decimated PCM data stream

Optionally waits for audio to be received and provides the received audio buffer from the requested stream

Return

0 on success, a negative error code on failure

Parameters

  • dev: Pointer to the device structure for DMIC driver instance

  • stream: Stream identifier

  • buffer: Pointer to the received buffer address

  • size: Pointer to the received buffer size

  • timeout: Timeout in milliseconds to wait in case audio is not yet received, or SYS_FOREVER_MS
