5.3.3.
Within slot 0 the first bit is a global bit (SDATA_OUT slot 0, bit 15) which flags the validity for the
entire audio frame. If the “Valid Frame” bit is a 1, this indicates that the current audio frame contains
at least one time slot of valid data. The next 12 bit positions sampled by AC‘97 indicate which of the
corresponding 12 time slots contain valid data. In this way data streams of differing sample rates can
be transmitted across AC-Link at its fixed 48 KHz audio frame rate.
The two LSBs of Slot 0 transmit the CODEC ID used to distinguish Primary and Secondary CODEC
register access.
Slot 1: Command Address Port
The command port is used to control features, and monitor status (see AC-Link input frame Slots 1
and 2) for AC‘97 CODEC functions including, but not limited to, mixer settings, and power manage-
ment (refer to the control register section of this specification).
The control interface architecture supports up to 64 16-bit read/write registers, addressable on even
byte boundaries. Only the even registers (00h, 02h, etc.) are currently defined, odd register (01h,
03h, etc.) accesses are reserved for future expansion.
Note that shadowing of the control register file on the AC‘97 Controller is an option left open to the
implementation of the AC‘97 Controller. The AC‘97 CODEC’s control register file is nonetheless
required to be readable as well as writeable to provide more robust testability.
AC-Link output frame slot 1 communicates control register address, and write/read command infor-
mation to the STAC9752A/9753A.

Stuffed with 0s
The first bit (MSB) sampled by AC‘97 indicates whether the current control transaction is a read or a
write operation. The following 7 bit positions communicate the targeted control register address. The
trailing 12 bit positions within the slot are reserved and must be stuffed with 0s by the AC‘97 Control-
ler.
Slot 2: Command Data Port
The command data port is used to deliver 16-bit control register write data in the event that the cur-
rent command port operation is a write cycle. (as indicated by Slot 1, bit 19)
• Bit(19:4) Control Register Write Data (Stuffed with 0s if current operation is a read)
• Bit(3:0) Reserved
(Stuffed with 0s)
If the current command port operation is a read then the entire slot time must be stuffed with 0s by
the AC‘97 Controller.
