AC Link Output Frame: SDATA_OUT (output from
controller, input to LM4546)
The audio output frame (output from AC '97 Controller) con-
tains control and PCM data targeted for the LM4546 control
registers and stereo DAC. The Tag slot, slot 0, contains 16
bits that tell the AC Link interface circuitry on the LM4546 the
validity of the following data slots.
A new audio output frame is signaled with a low to high tran-
sition of SYNC. SYNC is synchronous to the rising edge of
BIT_CLK. On the next rising edge of BIT_CLK, the AC '97
Controller drives SDATA_OUT with the first bit of slot 0. The
LM4546 samples SDATA_OUT on the falling edge of
BIT_CLK. The AC '97 Controller will continue outputting the
10098505
SDATA_OUT stream on each successive rising edge of
BIT_CLK.

The first bit of slot 0 is designated the "Valid Frame" bit. If this
bit is 1, it indicates that the current data frame contains at least
one slot of valid data and the LM4546 will further sample the
next four bits to determine which frames do in fact have valid
data. Valid slots are signified by a 1 in their respective slot bit
position.
