6.3.8 Audio
For its audio sub-system the BitsyXb uses the Crystal CS4202 AC'97 stereo codec with dual audio
input and output channels. The BitsyXb adds an output power amplifier (National LM4863) and a
microphone pre-amp with power for electret microphones.
The output amplifier supports differential and single-ended modes. When the HP_IN signal is
greater than V HP_IN, the amplifier is in single-ended mode; when lower, it is in differential
mode.
The following diagram illustrates the relationship of the BitsyXb signal amplifiers to the codec:

The BitsyXb microphone circuitry can be factory configured to support "line in" inputs (1 Vrms
with no electret pull-ups) and different input gain and filtering. See section 6.1.4 for details about
volume production options.
