7. High Definition Audio Link Protocol  
7.1. Link Signals  
The High Definition Audio (HDA) Link is the digital serial interface that connects the HDA codecs to the  
HDA Controller. The HDA link protocol is controller synchronous, based on a 24.0MHz BIT-CLK sent  
by the HDA controller. The input and output streams, including command and PCM data, are isochronous  
with a 48kHz frame rate. Figure 3 shows the basic concept of the HDA link protocol.

Description  
24.0MHz bit clock sourced from the HDA controller and connecting to all codecs.  
A 48kHz signal used to synchronize input and output streams on the link. It is sourced from the HDA  
controller and connects to all codecs.  
SDO  
Serial Data Output signal driven by the HDA controller to all codecs. Commands and data streams are  
carried on SDO. The data rate is double-pumped; the controller drives data onto the SDO, the codec samples  
data present on SDO with respect to each edge of BCLK. The HDA controller must support at least one  
SDO. To extend outbound bandwidth, multiple SDOs may be supported.  
SDI  
Serial Data Input signal driven by the codec. This is point-to-point serial data from the codec to the HDA  
controller. The controller must support at least one SDI. Up to a maximum of 15 SDI’s can be supported.  
SDI is driven by the codec at each rising edge of BCLK, and sampled by the controller at each rising edge of  
BCLK. SDI can be driven by the controller to initialize the codec’s ID.  
RESET# Active low reset signal. Asserted to reset the codec to default power-on state. RESET# is sourced from the  
HDA controller and connects to all codecs.

7.1.2. Signaling Topology  
The HDA controller supports two SDOs for the outbound stream, up to 15 SDIs for the inbound stream.  
RESET#, BCLK, SYNC, SDO0 and SDO1 are driven by the controller to codecs. Each codec drives its  
own point-to-point SDI signal(s) to the controller.  
Figure 5, on page 9, shows the possible connections between the HDA controller and codecs:  
Codec 0 is a basic connection. There is one single SDO and one single SDI for normal transmission  
Codec 1 has two SDOs for doubled outbound rate, and a single SDI for normal inbound rate  
Codec 3 supports a single SDO for normal outbound rate, and two SDIs for doubled inbound rate  
Codec N has two SDOs and multiple SDIs  
The multiple SDOs and multiple SDIs are used to expand the transmission rate between controller and  
codecs. Section 7.2 Frame Composition, page 9, describes the detailed outbound and inbound stream  
compositions for single and multiple SDOs/SDIs.  
The connections shown in Figure 5 can be implemented concurrently in an HDA system. The ALC861 is  
designed to receive a single SDO stream.

7.2. Frame Composition  
7.2.1. Outbound Frame – Single SDO  
An outbound frame is composed of one 32-bit command stream and multiple data streams. There are one  
or multiple sample blocks in a data stream. Only one sample block exists in a stream if the HDA  
controller delivers a 48kHz rate of samples to the codec. Multiple sample blocks in a stream means the  
sample rate is a multiple of 48kHz. This means there should be 2 blocks in the same stream to carry  
96kHz samples (Figure 6).  
For outbound frames, the stream tag is not in SDO, but in the SYNC signal. A new data stream is started  
at the end of the stream tag. The stream tag includes a 4-bit preamble and 4-bit stream ID (Figure 7).  
To keep the cadence of converters bound to the same stream, samples for these converters must be placed  
in the same block.

7.2.2. Outbound Frame – Multiple SDOs  
The HDA controller allows two SDO signals to be used to strip outbound data, completing transmission  
in less time to get more bandwidth. If software determines that the target codec supports multiple SDO  
capability, it enables the ‘Strip Control’ bit in the controller’s Output Stream Control Register to initiate a  
specific stream (Stream ‘A’ in Figure 8) to be transmitted on multiple SDOs. In this case, the MSB of  
stream data is always carried on SDO0, the second bit on SDO1 and so forth.  
SDO1 is for transmitting a stripped stream. The codec does not support multiple SDOs connected to  
SDO0.  
To ensure that all codecs can determine their corresponding stream, the command stream is not stripped.  
It is always transmitted on SDO0, and copied on SDO1.

7.2.3. Inbound Frame – Single SDI  
An Inbound Frame – Single SDI is composed of one 36-bit response stream and multiple data streams.  
Except for the initialization sequence (turnaround and address frame), SDI is driven by the codec at each  
rising edge of BCLK. The controller also samples data at the rising edge of BCLK (Figure 9).  
The SDI stream tag is not carried by SYNC, but included in the SDI. A complete SDI data stream  
includes one 4-bit stream tag, one 6-bit data length, and n-bit sample blocks. Zeros will be padded if the  
total length of the contiguous sample blocks within a given stream is not of integral byte length  
(Figure 10).

7.2.4. Inbound Frame – Multiple SDIs  
A codec can deliver data to the controller on multiple SDIs to achieve higher bandwidth. If an inbound  
stream exceeds the data transfer limits of a single SDI, the codec can divide the data onto separate SDI  
signals, each of which operate independently, with different stream numbers at the same frame time. This  
is similar to having multiple codecs connected to the controller. The controller samples the divided stream  
into separate memory with multiple DMA descriptors, then software re-combines the divided data into a  
meaningful stream.

7.2.5. Variable Sample Rates  
The HDA link is designed for sample rates of 48kHz. Variable sample rates are delivered in multiple or  
sub-multiple rates of 48kHz. Two sample blocks per frame result in a 96kHz delivery rate, one sample  
block over two frames results in a 24kHz delivery rate. The HDA specification states that the sample rate  
of the outbound stream be synchronized by the controller, not by the codec. Each stream has its own  
sample rate, independent of any other stream.  
The HDA controller supports 48kHz and 44.1kHz base rates. Table 8, page 14, shows the recommended  
sample rates based on multiples or sub-multiples of one of the two base rates.  
Rates in sub-multiples (1/n) of 48kHz are interleaving n frames containing no sample blocks. Rates in  
multiples (n) of 48kHz contain n sample blocks in a frame. Table 9, page 14, shows the delivery cadence  
of variable rates based on 48kHz.  
The HDA link is defined to operate at a fixed 48kHz frame rate. To deliver samples in (sub) multiple  
rates of 44.1kHz, an appropriate ratio between 44.1kHz and 48kHz must be maintained to avoid  
frequency drift. The appropriate ratio between 44.1kHz and 48kHz is 147/160. Meaning 147 sample  
blocks are transmitted every 160 frames. The cadence  
“12-11-11-12-11-11-12-11-11-12-11-11-11- (repeat)”  
interleaves 13 frames containing no sample blocks in every 160 frames. It provides a low long-term  
frequency drift for 44.1kHz of delivery rate. Rates in sub-multiples (1/n) of 44.1kHz also follow this  
cadence AND interleave n empty frames. Rates in multiples (n) of 44.1kHz applying this cadence contain  
n sample blocks in the non-empty frame AND interleave an empty frame between non-empty  
frames (Table 10, page 14).

7.3. Reset and Initialization  
There are two types of reset within an HDA link:  
Link Reset.  
Generated by assertion of the RESET# signal. All codecs return to their power-on state  
Codec Reset.  
Generated by software directing a command to reset a specific codec back to its default state  
An initialization sequence is requested after any of the following three events:  
1. Link Reset  
2. Codec Reset  
3. Codec changes its power state, e.g., hot docking a codec to an HDA system  
7.3.1. Link Reset  
A link reset may be caused by any of the following three events:  
1. The HDA controller asserts RESET# for any reason (power up, or PCI reset)  
2. Software initiates a link reset via the ‘CRST’ bit in the Global Control Register (GCR) of the HDA  
controller  
3. Software initiates power management sequences. Figure 12, page 16, shows the ‘Link Reset’ timing  
including the ‘Enter’ sequence (n~r) and ‘Exit’ sequence (s~v)

software, opaque to the controller.  
Unsolicited Responses are sent by the codec independently of software requests. Jack Detection or GPI  
status information can be actively delivered to the controller and interpreted by software. The ‘Tag’ in  
Bit[31:28] is used to identify unsolicited events. This tag is undefined in the HDA specifications.
