This project addresses the idea of digital audio for the masses. The purpose of flexible audio transmission over Ethernet (FATE) is to set up a simple dedicated wired Ethernet network. You can then use the network to coordinate the distribution of high-quality audio signals throughout a building and the area around it. The useful design uses a full parallel bus interface to a WIZnet W5100 IC. The IC is memory mapped on the “auxiliary bus” (expansion bus) of the processor core. Its register values can be seen and manipulated at any time. Interrupts aren’t used. |
