INTRODUCTION
The CM7120 is a highly-integrated Audio DSP and CODEC Hub system. It combines advanced big and little DSP architecture with a high-performance and flexible CODEC hub, making it ideal for a wide range of mobile systems, such as Smartphone, Tablet, and Headset devices.

The CM7120 integrates two DSP cores with extensive memory resources. Given the advanced big and little DSP architecture, Tensilica HiFi-3 DSP core can support complicated signal processing applications with 300MIPS speed. Tensilica HiFi Mini DSP core can support light and ultra-low power applications, such as voice trigger and voice command. Given that Tensilica HiFi-3 and Mini DSP cores are widely used by many third-party software developers, it makes CM7120 create an extensive wide software reference design ecosystem, including multi-microphone advanced voice processing (NS, AEC,…etc.), voice trigger, command and high-quality, well-known branding audio post-processing.

The CM7120 integrates various method of the DSP code loading from SPI, I2S, UART and JTAG interface and supports auto code loading from external flash memory. Its fully-flexible digital mixing and routing with asynchronous sample rate converter (ASRC) supports the DSP core for wide use case flexibility. Five digital audio interfaces are provided, supporting I2S/PCM/TDM audio formats. Four differential analog microphone inputs and up to eight digital microphone inputs can accept audio signals from multiple microphone or line input sources.

The CM7120 features a low power cap-free Class-G headphone amplifier. It consumes low power during playback with 114dB SNR performance, providing mobile system longer battery life under Hi-Fi listening experience. Mono Receiver amplifier provides 100mW/16Ω or 32Ω with 3.3V supply or 3.6V~5V to 3.3V embedded LDO power source and high SNR, THD+N and good PSRR on GSM 217Hz.

The CM7120 also combines a variety of low-power fixed-function signal processing components. The advanced multiband DRC (Dynamic Range Control) enables further digital audio processing capabilities on playback or record paths. Advanced DRC function comprises multi-section and multi-band parts, ensuring signal level maintenance, maximizes loudness, and prevents audio clipping and speaker damage. The 22-band parametric EQ consists of 11-band EQ for each L/R playback path. Each bands of EQ can be programmed independently to compensate frequency response of L/R speakers, and to meet various user preferences. An independent 12-band parametric Equalizer consists of 6-band EQ for each L/R channel on the record path, for compensating the frequency response of microphone/line inputs.

The CM7120 individual blocks are all design for power efficient target, helping devices to achieve long time playback, record, voice talk…etc. cases. The CM7120 is supplied by a small WLCSP package, ideal for mobile system design.
