Description

The STA020 is a monolithic CMOS device which encodes and transmits audio data according to the AES/EBU, IEC 958, S/PDIF, & EIAJ CP-340 interface standards. It supports 96 kHz sample rate operation.
The STA020 accepts audio and digital data which is then multiplexed, encoded and driven onto a cable.
The audio serial port is double-buffered and capable of supporting a wide variety of formats.
The STA020 multiplexes the channel, user, and validity data directly from the serial input pins with dedicated input pins for the most important channel status bits.
