The McBSP provides a high-speed direct interface to codecs, analog interface chips (AICs), and
other serially connected A/D and D/A devices. It has double-buffered transmission and triple-
buffered reception for supporting continuous data streams. There are 128 channels for
transmission and reception, and data size selections of 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, and 32 bits, along with
µ-law and A-law companding.
