Inter-IC Sound (I2S)

[中文]

Introduction

I2S (Inter-IC Sound) is a synchronous serial communication protocol usually used for transmitting audio data between two digital audio devices.

ESP32 contains two I2S peripheral(s). These peripherals can be configured to input and output sample data via the I2S driver.

An I2S bus that communicates in standard or TDM mode consists of the following lines:

  • MCLK: Master clock line. It is an optional signal depending on the slave side, mainly used for offering a reference clock to the I2S slave device.

  • BCLK: Bit clock line. The bit clock for data line.

  • WS: Word (Slot) select line. It is usually used to identify the vocal tract except PDM mode.

  • DIN/DOUT: Serial data input/output line. Data will loopback internally if DIN and DOUT are set to a same GPIO.

An I2S bus that communicates in PDM mode consists of the following lines:

  • CLK: PDM clock line.

  • DIN/DOUT: Serial data input/output line.

Each I2S controller has the following features that can be configured by the I2S driver:

  • Operation as system master or slave

  • Capable of acting as transmitter or receiver

  • DMA controller that allows stream sampling of data without requiring the CPU to copy each data sample

Each controller supports single RX or TX simplex communication. As RX and TX channels share a clock, they can only be combined with the same configuration to establish a full-duplex communication.

I2S File Structure

I2S file structure

I2S File Structure

Public headers that need to be included in the I2S application are as follows:

  • i2s.h: The header file that provides legacy I2S APIs (for apps using legacy driver).

  • i2s_std.h: The header file that provides standard communication mode specific APIs (for apps using new driver with standard mode).

  • i2s_pdm.h: The header file that provides PDM communication mode specific APIs (for apps using new driver with PDM mode).

  • i2s_tdm.h: The header file that provides TDM communication mode specific APIs (for apps using new driver with TDM mode).

Note

The legacy driver cannot coexist with the new driver. Include i2s.h to use the legacy driver, or include the other three headers to use the new driver. The legacy driver might be removed in future.

Public headers that have been included in the headers above are as follows:

  • i2s_types_legacy.h: The header file that provides legacy public types that are only used in the legacy driver.

  • i2s_types.h: The header file that provides public types.

  • i2s_common.h: The header file that provides common APIs for all communication modes.

I2S Clock

Clock Source

  • i2s_clock_src_t::I2S_CLK_SRC_DEFAULT: Default PLL clock.

  • i2s_clock_src_t::I2S_CLK_SRC_PLL_160M: 160 MHz PLL clock.

  • i2s_clock_src_t::I2S_CLK_SRC_APLL: Audio PLL clock, which is more precise than I2S_CLK_SRC_PLL_160M in high sample rate applications. Its frequency is configurable according to the sample rate. However, if APLL has been occupied by EMAC or other channels, the APLL frequency cannot be changed, and the driver will try to work under this APLL frequency. If this frequency cannot meet the requirements of I2S, the clock configuration will fail.

Clock Terminology

  • Sample rate: The number of sampled data in one second per slot.

  • SCLK: Source clock frequency. It is the frequency of the clock source.

  • MCLK: Master clock frequency. BCLK is generated from this clock. The MCLK signal usually serves as a reference clock and is mostly needed to synchronize BCLK and WS between I2S master and slave roles.

  • BCLK: Bit clock frequency. Every tick of this clock stands for one data bit on data pin. The slot bit width configured in i2s_std_slot_config_t::slot_bit_width is equal to the number of BCLK ticks, which means there will be 8/16/24/32 BCLK ticks in one slot.

  • LRCK / WS: Left/right clock or word select clock. For non-PDM mode, its frequency is equal to the sample rate.

Note

Normally, MCLK should be the multiple of sample rate and BCLK at the same time. The field i2s_std_clk_config_t::mclk_multiple indicates the multiple of MCLK to the sample rate. In most cases, I2S_MCLK_MULTIPLE_256 should be enough. However, if slot_bit_width is set to I2S_SLOT_BIT_WIDTH_24BIT, to keep MCLK a multiple to the BCLK, i2s_std_clk_config_t::mclk_multiple should be set to multiples that are divisible by 3 such as I2S_MCLK_MULTIPLE_384. Otherwise, WS will be inaccurate.

Standard Mode

In standard mode, there are always two sound channels, i.e., the left and right channels, which are called "slots". These slots support 8/16/24/32-bit width sample data. The communication format for the slots mainly includes the following:

  • Philips Format: Data signal has one-bit shift comparing to the WS signal, and the duty of WS signal is 50%.

  • MSB Format: Basically the same as Philips format, but without data shift.

  • PCM Short Format: Data has one-bit shift and meanwhile the WS signal becomes a pulse lasting for one BCLK cycle.

PDM Mode (TX)

PDM (Pulse-density Modulation) mode for the TX channel can convert PCM data into PDM format which always has left and right slots. PDM TX is only supported on I2S0 and it only supports 16-bit width sample data. It needs at least a CLK pin for clock signal and a DOUT pin for data signal (i.e., the WS and SD signal in the following figure; the BCK signal is an internal bit sampling clock, which is not needed between PDM devices). This mode allows users to configure the up-sampling parameters i2s_pdm_tx_clk_config_t::up_sample_fp and i2s_pdm_tx_clk_config_t::up_sample_fs. The up-sampling rate can be calculated by up_sample_rate = i2s_pdm_tx_clk_config_t::up_sample_fp / i2s_pdm_tx_clk_config_t::up_sample_fs. There are two up-sampling modes in PDM TX:

  • Fixed Clock Frequency: In this mode, the up-sampling rate changes according to the sample rate. Setting fp = 960 and fs = sample_rate / 100, then the clock frequency (Fpdm) on CLK pin will be fixed to 128 * 48 KHz = 6.144 MHz. Note that this frequency is not equal to the sample rate (Fpcm).

  • Fixed Up-sampling Rate: In this mode, the up-sampling rate is fixed to 2. Setting fp = 960 and fs = 480, then the clock frequency (Fpdm) on CLK pin will be 128 * sample_rate.

PDM Mode (RX)

PDM (Pulse-density Modulation) mode for RX channel can receive PDM-format data and convert the data into PCM format. PDM RX is only supported on I2S0, and it only supports 16-bit width sample data. PDM RX needs at least a CLK pin for clock signal and a DIN pin for data signal. This mode allows users to configure the down-sampling parameter i2s_pdm_rx_clk_config_t::dn_sample_mode. There are two down-sampling modes in PDM RX:

LCD/Camera Mode

LCD/Camera mode is only supported on I2S0 over a parallel bus. For LCD mode, I2S0 should work at master TX mode. For camera mode, I2S0 should work at slave RX mode. These two modes are not implemented by the I2S driver. Please refer to I80 Interfaced LCD for details about the LCD implementation. For more information, see ESP32 Technical Reference Manual > I2S Controller (I2S) > LCD Mode [PDF].

ADC/DAC Mode

ADC and DAC modes only exist on ESP32 and are only supported on I2S0. Actually, they are two sub-modes of LCD/Camera mode. I2S0 can be routed directly to the internal analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and digital-to-analog converter (DAC). In other words, ADC and DAC peripherals can read or write continuously via I2S0 DMA. As they are not actual communication modes, the I2S driver does not implement them.

Functional Overview

The I2S driver offers the following services:

Resource Management

There are three levels of resources in the I2S driver:

  • platform level: Resources of all I2S controllers in the current target.

  • controller level: Resources in one I2S controller.

  • channel level: Resources of TX or RX channel in one I2S controller.

The public APIs are all channel-level APIs. The channel handle i2s_chan_handle_t can help users to manage the resources under a specific channel without considering the other two levels. The other two upper levels' resources are private and are managed by the driver automatically. Users can call i2s_new_channel() to allocate a channel handle and call i2s_del_channel() to delete it.

Power Management

When the power management is enabled (i.e., CONFIG_PM_ENABLE is on), the system will adjust or stop the source clock of I2S before entering Light-sleep, thus potentially changing the I2S signals and leading to transmitting or receiving invalid data.

The I2S driver can prevent the system from changing or stopping the source clock by acquiring a power management lock. The power lock type will be set to esp_pm_lock_type_t::ESP_PM_APB_FREQ_MAX. Whenever the user is reading or writing via I2S (i.e., calling i2s_channel_read() or i2s_channel_write()), the driver guarantees that the power management lock is acquired. Likewise, the driver releases the lock after the reading or writing finishes.

Finite State Machine

There are three states for an I2S channel, namely, registered, ready, and running. Their relationship is shown in the following diagram:

I2S Finite State Machine

I2S Finite State Machine

The <mode> in the diagram can be replaced by corresponding I2S communication modes, e.g., std for standard two-slot mode. For more information about communication modes, please refer to the I2S Communication Mode section.

Data Transport

The data transport of the I2S peripheral, including sending and receiving, is realized by DMA. Before transporting data, please call i2s_channel_enable() to enable the specific channel. When the sent or received data reaches the size of one DMA buffer, the I2S_OUT_EOF or I2S_IN_SUC_EOF interrupt will be triggered. Note that the DMA buffer size is not equal to i2s_chan_config_t::dma_frame_num. One frame here refers to all the sampled data in one WS circle. Therefore, dma_buffer_size = dma_frame_num * slot_num * slot_bit_width / 8. For the data transmitting, users can input the data by calling i2s_channel_write(). This function helps users to copy the data from the source buffer to the DMA TX buffer and wait for the transmission to finish. Then it will repeat until the sent bytes reach the given size. For the data receiving, the function i2s_channel_read() waits to receive the message queue which contains the DMA buffer address. It helps users copy the data from the DMA RX buffer to the destination buffer.

Both i2s_channel_write() and i2s_channel_read() are blocking functions. They keeps waiting until the whole source buffer is sent or the whole destination buffer is loaded, unless they exceed the max blocking time, where the error code ESP_ERR_TIMEOUT returns. To send or receive data asynchronously, callbacks can be registered by i2s_channel_register_event_callback(). Users are able to access the DMA buffer directly in the callback function instead of transmitting or receiving by the two blocking functions. However, please be aware that it is an interrupt callback, so do not add complex logic, run floating operation, or call non-reentrant functions in the callback.

Configuration

Users can initialize a channel by calling corresponding functions (i.e., i2s_channel_init_std_mode(), i2s_channel_init_pdm_rx_mode(), i2s_channel_init_pdm_tx_mode(), or i2s_channel_init_tdm_mode()) to a specific mode. If the configurations need to be updated after initialization, users have to first call i2s_channel_disable() to ensure that the channel has stopped, and then call corresponding reconfig functions, like i2s_channel_reconfig_std_slot(), i2s_channel_reconfig_std_clock(), and i2s_channel_reconfig_std_gpio().

IRAM Safe

By default, the I2S interrupt will be deferred when the cache is disabled for reasons like writing/erasing flash. Thus the EOF interrupt will not get executed in time.

To avoid such case in real-time applications, you can enable the Kconfig option CONFIG_I2S_ISR_IRAM_SAFE that:

  1. Keeps the interrupt being serviced even when the cache is disabled.

  2. Places driver object into DRAM (in case it is linked to PSRAM by accident).

This allows the interrupt to run while the cache is disabled, but comes at the cost of increased IRAM consumption.

Thread Safety

All the public I2S APIs are guaranteed to be thread safe by the driver, which means users can call them from different RTOS tasks without protection by extra locks. Notice that the I2S driver uses mutex lock to ensure the thread safety, thus these APIs are not allowed to be used in ISR.

Kconfig Options

Application Example

The examples of the I2S driver can be found in the directory peripherals/i2s. Here are some simple usages of each mode:

Standard TX/RX Usage

  • peripherals/i2s/i2s_codec/i2s_es8311 demonstrates how to use the I2S ES8311 audio codec with ESP32 to play music or echo sounds, featuring high performance and low power multi-bit delta-sigma audio ADC and DAC, with options to customize music and adjust mic gain and volume.

  • peripherals/i2s/i2s_basic/i2s_std demonstrates how to use the I2S standard mode in either simplex or full-duplex mode on ESP32.

Different slot communication formats can be generated by the following helper macros for standard mode. As described above, there are three formats in standard mode, and their helper macros are:

The clock config helper macro is:

Please refer to Standard Mode for information about STD API. And for more details, please refer to esp_driver_i2s/include/driver/i2s_std.h.

Note

It is similar when the data is 32-bit width, but take care when using 8-bit and 24-bit data width. For 8-bit width, the written buffer should still use uint16_t (i.e., align with 2 bytes), and only the high 8 bits are valid while the low 8 bits are dropped. For 24-bit width, the buffer is supposed to use uint32_t (i.e., align with 4 bytes), and only the high 24 bits are valid while the low 8 bits are dropped.

Besides, for 8-bit and 16-bit mono modes, the real data on the line is swapped. To get the correct data sequence, the writing buffer needs to swap the data every two bytes.

Note

The receive case is a little bit complicated on ESP32. Firstly, when the data width is 8-bit or 24-bit, the received data will still align with two bytes or four bytes, which means that the valid data are put in the high 8 bits in every two bytes and high 24 bits in every four bytes. For example, the received data will be 0x5A00 when the data on the line is 0x5A in 8-bit width, and 0x0000 5A00 if the data on the line is 0x00 005A. Secondly, for the 8-bit or 16-bit mono case, the data in buffer is swapped every two data, so it may be necessary to manually swap the data back to the correct order.

Full-duplex

Full-duplex mode registers TX and RX channel in an I2S port at the same time, and the channels share the BCLK and WS signals. Currently, STD and TDM communication modes supports full-duplex mode in the following way, but PDM full-duplex is not supported because due to different PDM TX and RX clocks.

Note that one handle can only stand for one channel. Therefore, it is still necessary to configure the slot and clock for both TX and RX channels one by one.

Here is an example of how to allocate a pair of full-duplex channels:

#include "driver/i2s_std.h"
#include "driver/gpio.h"

i2s_chan_handle_t tx_handle;
i2s_chan_handle_t rx_handle;

/* Allocate a pair of I2S channel */
i2s_chan_config_t chan_cfg = I2S_CHANNEL_DEFAULT_CONFIG(I2S_NUM_AUTO, I2S_ROLE_MASTER);
/* Allocate for TX and RX channel at the same time, then they will work in full-duplex mode */
i2s_new_channel(&chan_cfg, &tx_handle, &rx_handle);

/* Set the configurations for BOTH TWO channels, since TX and RX channel have to be same in full-duplex mode */
i2s_std_config_t std_cfg = {
    .clk_cfg = I2S_STD_CLK_DEFAULT_CONFIG(32000),
    .slot_cfg = I2S_STD_PHILIPS_SLOT_DEFAULT_CONFIG(I2S_DATA_BIT_WIDTH_16BIT, I2S_SLOT_MODE_STEREO),
    .gpio_cfg = {
        .mclk = I2S_GPIO_UNUSED,
        .bclk = GPIO_NUM_4,
        .ws = GPIO_NUM_5,
        .dout = GPIO_NUM_18,
        .din = GPIO_NUM_19,
        .invert_flags = {
            .mclk_inv = false,
            .bclk_inv = false,
            .ws_inv = false,
        },
    },

i2s_channel_init_std_mode(rx_handle, &std_cfg);

i2s_channel_enable(tx_handle);
i2s_channel_enable(rx_handle);

...

Simplex Mode

To allocate a channel handle in simplex mode, i2s_new_channel() should be called for each channel. The clock and GPIO pins of TX/RX channel on ESP32 are not independent, so the TX and RX channel cannot coexist on the same I2S port in simplex mode.

#include "driver/i2s_std.h"
#include "driver/gpio.h"

i2s_chan_handle_t tx_handle;
i2s_chan_handle_t rx_handle;

Application Notes

How to Prevent Data Lost

For applications that need a high frequency sample rate, the massive data throughput may cause data lost. Users can receive data lost event by registering the ISR callback function to receive the event queue:

static IRAM_ATTR bool i2s_rx_queue_overflow_callback(i2s_chan_handle_t handle, i2s_event_data_t *event, void *user_ctx)
{
    // handle RX queue overflow event ...
    return false;
}

i2s_event_callbacks_t cbs = {
    .on_recv = NULL,
    .on_recv_q_ovf = i2s_rx_queue_overflow_callback,
    .on_sent = NULL,
    .on_send_q_ovf = NULL,
};
TEST_ESP_OK(i2s_channel_register_event_callback(rx_handle, &cbs, NULL));

Please follow these steps to prevent data lost:

  1. Determine the interrupt interval. Generally, when data lost happens, the bigger the interval, the better, which helps to reduce the interrupt times. This means dma_frame_num should be as big as possible while the DMA buffer size is below the maximum value of 4092. The relationships are:

    interrupt_interval(unit: sec) = dma_frame_num / sample_rate
dma_buffer_size = dma_frame_num * slot_num * data_bit_width / 8 <= 4092

  2. Determine dma_desc_num. dma_desc_num is decided by the maximum time of i2s_channel_read polling cycle. All the received data is supposed to be stored between two i2s_channel_read. This cycle can be measured by a timer or an outputting GPIO signal. The relationship is:

    dma_desc_num > polling_cycle / interrupt_interval

  3. Determine the receiving buffer size. The receiving buffer offered by users in i2s_channel_read should be able to take all the data in all DMA buffers, which means that it should be larger than the total size of all the DMA buffers:

    recv_buffer_size > dma_desc_num * dma_buffer_size

For example, if there is an I2S application, and the known values are:

sample_rate = 144000 Hz
data_bit_width = 32 bits
slot_num = 2
polling_cycle = 10 ms

Then the parameters dma_frame_num, dma_desc_num, and recv_buf_size can be calculated as follows:

dma_frame_num * slot_num * data_bit_width / 8 = dma_buffer_size <= 4092
dma_frame_num <= 511
interrupt_interval = dma_frame_num / sample_rate = 511 / 144000 = 0.003549 s = 3.549 ms
dma_desc_num > polling_cycle / interrupt_interval = cell(10 / 3.549) = cell(2.818) = 3
recv_buffer_size > dma_desc_num * dma_buffer_size = 3 * 4092 = 12276 bytes

  • This header file can be included with:

    #include "driver/i2s_common.h"

  • This header file is a part of the API provided by the esp_driver_i2s component. To declare that your component depends on esp_driver_i2s, add the following to your CMakeLists.txt:

    REQUIRES esp_driver_i2s

    or

    PRIV_REQUIRES esp_driver_i2s

Functions

esp_err_t i2s_new_channel(const i2s_chan_config_t *chan_cfg, i2s_chan_handle_t *ret_tx_handle, i2s_chan_handle_t *ret_rx_handle)

Allocate new I2S channel(s)

Note

The new created I2S channel handle will be REGISTERED state after it is allocated successfully.

Note

When the port id in channel configuration is I2S_NUM_AUTO, driver will allocate I2S port automatically on one of the I2S controller, otherwise driver will try to allocate the new channel on the selected port.

Note

If both tx_handle and rx_handle are not NULL, it means this I2S controller will work at full-duplex mode, the RX and TX channels will be allocated on a same I2S port in this case. Note that some configurations of TX/RX channel are shared on ESP32 and ESP32S2, so please make sure they are working at same condition and under same status(start/stop). Currently, full-duplex mode can't guarantee TX/RX channels write/read synchronously, they can only share the clock signals for now.

Note

If tx_handle OR rx_handle is NULL, it means this I2S controller will work at simplex mode. For ESP32 and ESP32S2, the whole I2S controller (i.e. both RX and TX channel) will be occupied, even if only one of RX or TX channel is registered. For the other targets, another channel on this controller will still available.

Parameters

  • chan_cfg -- [in] I2S controller channel configurations

  • ret_tx_handle -- [out] I2S channel handler used for managing the sending channel(optional)

  • ret_rx_handle -- [out] I2S channel handler used for managing the receiving channel(optional)

Note

Only allowed to be called when the I2S channel is at REGISTERED or READY state (i.e., it should stop before deleting it).

Note

Resource will be free automatically if all channels in one port are deleted

Parameters

handle -- [in] I2S channel handler

  • ESP_OK Delete successfully

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG NULL pointer

esp_err_t i2s_channel_enable(i2s_chan_handle_t handle)

Enable the I2S channel.

Note

Only allowed to be called when the channel state is READY, (i.e., channel has been initialized, but not started) the channel will enter RUNNING state once it is enabled successfully.

Note

Enable the channel can start the I2S communication on hardware. It will start outputting BCLK and WS signal. For MCLK signal, it will start to output when initialization is finished

Parameters

handle -- [in] I2S channel handler

  • ESP_OK Start successfully

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG NULL pointer

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE This channel has not initialized or already started

esp_err_t i2s_channel_disable(i2s_chan_handle_t handle)

Note

Only allowed to be called when the channel state is RUNNING, (i.e., channel has been started) the channel will enter READY state once it is disabled successfully.

Note

Disable the channel can stop the I2S communication on hardware. It will stop BCLK and WS signal but not MCLK signal

Parameters

handle -- [in] I2S channel handler

Returns

  • ESP_OK Stop successfully

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG NULL pointer

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE This channel has not stated

esp_err_t i2s_channel_preload_data(i2s_chan_handle_t tx_handle, const void *src, size_t size, size_t *bytes_loaded)

Preload the data into TX DMA buffer.

Note

Only allowed to be called when the channel state is READY, (i.e., channel has been initialized, but not started)

Note

As the initial DMA buffer has no data inside, it will transmit the empty buffer after enabled the channel, this function is used to preload the data into the DMA buffer, so that the valid data can be transmitted immediately after the channel is enabled.

Note

This function can be called multiple times before enabling the channel, the buffer that loaded later will be concatenated behind the former loaded buffer. But when all the DMA buffers have been loaded, no more data can be preload then, please check the bytes_loaded parameter to see how many bytes are loaded successfully, when the bytes_loaded is smaller than the size, it means the DMA buffers are full.

Parameters

  • tx_handle -- [in] I2S TX channel handler

  • src -- [in] The pointer of the source buffer to be loaded

  • size -- [in] The source buffer size

  • bytes_loaded -- [out] The bytes that successfully been loaded into the TX DMA buffer

Note

It has different meanings in tx/rx/mono/stereo mode, and it may have different behaviors on different targets For the details, please refer to the I2S API reference

Values:

enumerator I2S_STD_SLOT_LEFT

I2S transmits or receives left slot

enumerator I2S_STD_SLOT_RIGHT

I2S transmits or receives right slot

enumerator I2S_STD_SLOT_BOTH

I2S transmits or receives both left and right slot

enum i2s_pdm_slot_mask_t

I2S slot select in PDM mode.

Values:

enumerator I2S_PDM_SLOT_RIGHT

I2S PDM only transmits or receives the PDM device whose 'select' pin is pulled up

enumerator I2S_PDM_SLOT_LEFT

I2S PDM only transmits or receives the PDM device whose 'select' pin is pulled down

enumerator I2S_PDM_SLOT_BOTH

I2S PDM transmits or receives both two slots

enum i2s_etm_event_type_t

I2S channel events that supported by the ETM module.

Values:

enumerator I2S_ETM_EVENT_DONE

Trigger condition: TX: no data to send in the TX FIFO, i.e., DMA need to stop (next desc is NULL) RX: 1. If rx_stop_mode = 0, this event will trigger when DMA is stopped (next desc is NULL)

  1. If rx_stop_mode = 1, this event will trigger when DMA in_suc_eof.

  2. If rx_stop_mode = 2, this event will trigger when RX FIFO is full. Event that I2S TX or RX stopped

enumerator I2S_ETM_EVENT_REACH_THRESH

Trigger condition: TX: the sent words(in 32-bit) number reach the threshold that configured in etm_tx_send_word_num RX: the received words(in 32-bit) number reach the threshold that configured in etm_rx_receive_word_num and etm_rx_receive_word_num should be smaller than the size of the DMA buffer in one in_suc_eof event. Event that the I2S sent or received data reached the threshold

enumerator I2S_ETM_EVENT_MAX

Maximum number of events

enum i2s_etm_task_type_t

I2S channel tasks that supported by the ETM module.

Values:

enumerator I2S_ETM_TASK_START

Start the I2S channel

enumerator I2S_ETM_TASK_STOP

Stop the I2S channel

enumerator I2S_ETM_TASK_MAX
