I2S, I2C, Ethernet, AI, USB, RS232 doubts

Hello,

I have some doubts about NetDCU10.

- Audio codec I2S:

Which is the connector to use audio codec I2S? Which pins in this connector?
How is to use this from software? Standard API from Windows?

- Bus I2C:

Which is the top transfer speed of the board? (400Kb/s – 3.4Mb/s).
How can I access this resource from my application? Is a driver available? Where are the pins to use this? (NetDCU8 Connector J5, Pin 10 (SDA) and Pin 11 (SCL)).

- Ethernet Chip:

Is this IC protected against ESD?
If the answer for the previous question is negative, do you have any validated connector for this purpose?
If the answer for the previous question is affirmative, which are the real protection levels against ESD?

- AI

Which is the top sampling frequency?
Which are the max. and min. entry levels?
Which is the ADC resolution?

- USB Chip:

Is this IC protected against ESD?
Should I incorporate an extra IC against ESD in this connector?

- RS-232:

Which are the top transfer speeds for these ports?
Work these three ports in EIA-232 tension levels?
Is possible to use the third port in logic levels V.24/V.28?

Thank you very much in advance for your quick answers.

Hello Again,

Sorry but there are some questions that aren’t completely clear, thus in the following paragraph I attached some questions for clarifying whole my doubts :

1- Related to I2S bus: Apologies me, but I think that the bus I2S is a digital audio bus which signals are:

- MCLK

- SData

- WS

Thus from your answer I understand that the audio peripheral in NET_DCU10 are analog audio signals. It’s right?

Furthermore, if NET_DCU10 only have analogical audio signals, could you give the technical specifications of the audio signals. ( Voltage (p-p), power to drive,…).

2- Related to Ethernet ESD protection: Which are the level protection against ESD, provided by the NETDCU? .

2kV is required in our application, thus if NETDCU doesn’t provide this protection we need to integrate an ESD chip protection.

3- Related to RS-232: I understand that the signal level in all the three RS-232 ports are EIA-232 levels (+/- 24V), not logical levels; isn’t it?

Is to much important receive your answer as soon as possible, because if NETDCU10 only have analogical audio signals, thus implies to modify our hardware design.

We are looking to hearing form you,
