4、lectrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic field
5、s. To this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governm
6、ental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of the
7、 IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested National Committees. 3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are
8、 published in the form of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense. 4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International Standards transparently to the max
9、imum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible fo
10、r any equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards. 6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Internat
11、ional Standard IEC 60958-4 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 100: Audio, video and multimedia systems and equipment. This second edition of IEC 60958-4 cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1999 and constitutes a technical revision. The text of this standard is based on the
12、following documents: FDIS Report on voting 100/643/FDIS 100/669/RVD Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main change
13、s with respect to the previous edition (1999) are listed below. The scope specifies the professional application of IEC 60958-1 (generalities have been removed to an introduction). A clause on terms and definitions has been added. In Table 1, expanded channel status assignments have been added and c
14、hannel status definitions expanded to accommodate extended sampling frequencies, indication of alignment level and multi-channel options. 2 Figure 1 and associated text has been revised to be more generalized. Three notes on cable performance factors have been added. The impedance specification is n

20、 professional linear PCM application7 INTRODUCTION The interface specified in this standard is primarily intended to carry monophonic or stereophonic programmes at a 48 kHz sampling frequency and with a resolution of up to 24 bits per sample. It may alternatively be used to carry signals sampled at
21、other rates such as 32 kHz, 44,1 kHz, or 96 kHz. Note that conformity to this interface specification does not require equipment to utilize these rates and also that the capability of the interface to indicate other sample rates does not imply that it is recommended that equipment supports these rat
22、es. To eliminate doubt, equipment specifications should define the supported sampling frequencies. The format is intended for use with shielded twisted-pair cables over distances of up to 100 m without transmission equalization or any special equalization at the receiver and at frame rates of up to
23、50 kHz. Longer cable lengths and higher frame rates may be used with cables better matched for data transmission, or with receiver equalization, or both. In both cases, the clock references and auxiliary information are transmitted along with the audio data. Provision is also made to allow the inter
24、face to carry non-audio data. DIGITAL AUDIO INTERFACE Part 4: Professional applications 1 Scope This International Standard specifies the professional application of the interface for the interconnection of digital audio equipment defined in IEC 60958-1. 2 Normative references The following referenc
25、ed documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. IEC 60268-12:1987, Sound system equipment Part 12: Application of conne

28、Interface format 4.1 General The interface format as defined in IEC 60958-1 shall be used. For historical reasons, preambles “B”, “M” and “W”, as defined in 4.3 of IEC 60958-1, shall, for use in professional applications, be referred to as “Z”, “X” and “Y”, respectively. 4.2 Validity bit For this st
29、andard, the validity bit shall be used to indicate whether the main data field bits in the sub-frame are suitable for conversion to an analogue audio signal using linear PCM coding. 5 Channel status 5.1 General The channel status for each audio signal carries information associated with that audio s
30、ignal; thus it is possible for different channel status data to be carried in the two sub-frames of the digital audio signal. Examples of information to be carried in the channel status are: length of audio sample words, number of audio channels, sampling frequency, sample address code, alphanumeric
31、 source and destination codes, and pre-emphasis. Channel status information is organized in a 192-bit block, subdivided into 24 bytes, numbered 0 to 23 (see Table 1). The first bit of each block is carried in the frame with preamble “Z”. The individual bits of a block are numbered 0 to 191. The prim
32、ary application is indicated by channel status bit 0. For the professional applications described here, this first channel status bit equals “1”. NOTE For consumer digital audio equipment, this first channel status bit equals “0”, and this part of IEC 60958 does not apply. Secondary applications may
33、 be defined within the framework of these primary applications. 5.2 Professional linear PCM application The specific organization of the channel status data is defined in this clause and summarized in Table 1. The significance of byte 0, bit 0 is such that a transmission from an interface conforming
34、 to IEC 60958-3 (“consumer use”) can be identified. Also, a “professional use” transmission, defined in this part of IEC 60958, can be correctly identified by a “consumer use” receiver. Connection of a “consumer use” transmitter with a “professional use” receiver or vice versa might result in unpred
35、ictable operation. Thus, the byte definitions in this clause apply only when bit 0 = “1” and bit 1 = “0” (professional linear PCM use of the channel status block).

NOTE 2 The indication of sampling frequency, or the use of one of the sampling frequencies that can be indicated in this byte, is not a requirement for operation of the interface. The 00 state of bits 6 to 7 may be used if the transmitter does not sup
48、port the indication of sampling frequency, if the sampling frequency is unknown, or if the sample frequency is not one of those that can be indicated in this byte. In the latter case for some sampling frequencies byte 4 may be used to indicate the correct value. NOTE 3 When bits 8 to 11 in byte 1 in
49、dicate single-channel double-sampling frequency mode, the sampling frequency of the audio signal is twice that indicated by bits 6 to 7 in byte 0. Byte 1 The six modes of transmission are signalled by setting bits 8 to 11 of byte 1 of channel status. Two-channel mode: In two-channel mode, the samples from both channels are transmitted in consecutive sub-frames. Channel 1 is in sub-frame 1 and channel 2 is in sub-frame 2.
