DESCRIPTION
Tone Board is a USB external HiFi sound card specially developed for Khadas VIMs by Khadas brand series products. Its superior
performance and compatibility take the audiovisual experience to a whole new level. We integrated the advanced XMOS multi-core
RISC microcontroller and ESS flagship 32-bit stereo mobile audio DAC ES9038Q2M into a small PCB. At the same time, we selected
three independent high-performance OPAs and four ultra-low phase jitter oscillators for the audio system. As you can imagine, each
power path is controlled by a separate ultra-low noise CMOS linear regulator with an OPA of ± 5.5V. In addition to the powerful
hardware configuration, we also maximize the performance through excellent design.

TWO VERSIONS
GENERIC AND VIM EDITIONS
Generic Edition VIM Edition
The universal version is designed to work with a The VIM version is designed to "docking" with Khadas
standalone Mac, PC or SBC via the built-in USB-C data Edge V, VIM3L, VIM3, VIM2 and VIM1 SBC to form a
and power port. There are additional un-soldered GPIO complete Hi-Fi audio computer device. You can also
headers on the board. use radiators and fans with the Tone Board.
INTERFACES
FLEXIBLE I/O SUPPORTS DEVELOPMENT
Khadas aims to gradually realize the ideas and dreams of developers to help makers grow. The two versions of the Tone Board's RCA
output interface are the same, both have 2 RCA for analog output @ 2.0Vrms, and 1 RCA for S / PDIF input or output.
Expansion:
* 1 30-pin FPC connector for 8-channel analog output expansion
* Two 10-pin FPC connectors for OLED display and I2S expansio
Other:
* One 40-pin female connector for VIM
* A 20-pin SMT header for debugging XMOS and VIM
Users can directly connect their Tone Board to the PC via the USB-C interface, and the Tone Board is the ideal choice for audio
developers. Khadas' New VIM Heatsink can also be used with VIM and Tone Board.
COMPATIBILITY
TONE BOARD SUPPORTS MULTIPLE OSES
SPECIFICATIONS
[1] Android support only 44.1KHz output due to the Sample Rate Conversion(SRC) resampling implementations.
[2] Should also support other Single Board Computers(SBCs). FAQ
