I do not know the N80, but if the DSP is used, then your audio codec is 
probably connected to the DSP via the McBSP1, which is in the DSP domain.
Accessing the audio samples via the ARM would be possible if McBSP2 is 
used instead of McBSP1 since McBSP2 is in the ARM domain.
So without a HW modification, I do not see a possibility here.

Correction: McBSP1 is accessible by the DSP but also by ARM according to 
the datasheet (this is not clearly written, but the McBSP registers
section gives the MPU address for McBSP1).
So if you manage to stop the DSP execution, you might have a solution.
Sorry for the first wrong answer.

OMAP1710 - Accessing audio codec from arm cpu

[lbozzi]

Hi all,

I'm a newbie in omap architectures, so I beg your pardon If my question has an obvious answer.

I'd like to know if it's possible read/write audio samples in omap1710 (it's a Nokia N80) directly from arm cpu, "bypassing" C55xx DSP. I'm developing a custom application for such a device but cannot modify DSP code.

Thanks in advance for your replies,

Best Regards,

Are you talking about N80 or N800? N80 is not running Linux - out of the box
- and more likely doesn't expose API to talk with the DSP or control the
hardware. However, there is plenty of API to take advantage of the
multimedia peripheral of the device.

Maybe you can elaborate a bit.

RE: OMAP1710 - Accessing audio codec from arm cpu

[Guruswamy, Senthilvadivu]

If you are able to bypass DSP, then write your own code to access DSP
Mcbsp in the armside to send the audio samples.  HW supports it.
