3.2 Line Out Faults

Having robust line out fault diagnostics is of paramount importance for providing optimal audio quality and system reliability. Various factors such as electromagnetic interference (EMI), power supply fluctuations, and mechanical stresses can jeopardize the integrity of connections. For instance, EMI generated by the electrical systems of the vehicle or nearby devices can induce noise in audio connections. Furthermore, temperature variations and vibrations can lead to wear and tear on connectors, potentially resulting in intermittent or faulty connections. The diagnostics within the TAC5(3/4)1x-Q1 CODEC monitor the output pins for the following faults.

  • Overcurrent
  • Virtual ground
