Article purpose

The purpose of this article is to:

  • briefly introduce the SAI peripheral and its main features
  • indicate the level of security supported by this hardware block
  • explain how each instance can be allocated to the three runtime contexts and linked to the corresponding software components
  • explain how to configure the SAI peripheral.

Peripheral overview

The SAI (Serial Audio Interface) offers a wide set of audio protocols, such as: I2S standards (LSB or MSB-justified), PCM/DSP, TDM and S/PDIF. The SAI contains two independent audio sub-blocks. Each sub-block has its own clock generator and I/O line controller, and can be configured either as transmitter or receiver.

Features

Refer to STM32MP15 reference manuals for the complete feature list, and to the software components, introduced below, to see which features are implemented.

Security support

All the SAI instances are non secure peripherals.

Peripheral usage and associated software

Boot time

The SAI is not used at boot time.

Runtime

Overview

SAI instances can be allocated to:

Chapter #Peripheral assignment exposes which instance can be assigned to which context.

Peripheral configuration

The configuration is applied by the firmware running in the context to which the peripheral is assigned. The configuration can be done alone via the STM32CubeMX tool for all internal peripherals, then manually completed (particularly for external peripherals), according to the information given in the corresponding software framework article.

Configuration in Cortex-A7 non-secure software

When the Arm® Cortex®-A7 core operates in non-secure access mode, the SAI is controlled by the Linux kernel framework. Refer to SAI Linux driver to drive the SAI through Linux kernel ALSA framework. Refer to Soundcard configuration and SAI device tree configuration to configure the SAI through the Linux kernel device tree[1].

How to go further

STM32H7 SAI training [2] introduces the SAI features and applications. The SAI versions in STM32H7 and STM32MP15 are very close. In consequence this training is also relevant for STM32MP15. The user should refer to the STM32MP15 reference manuals for a complete description.
