It can be connected in several ways to the system: - analog only In this way the RX/TX is connected to some codec's Line IN/OUT For this to work, we don't need any audio driver for the FM chip (basically the same configuration as rx51 has in regards of FM radio) - Digital interfaces The I2S lines are connected to the main processor. In this way the wl1273 acts as a codec. In order to provide platform independent driver we need to use ASoC framework. ASoC have broad main processor side support, and it is easy to switch the arch, if we have proper ASoC codec driver for the wl1273. It is also better to keep the codec implementation under sound/soc/codecs. I have not looked deeply into the wl1273 datasheets, but I'm sure there's a way to nicely divide the parts between the MFD, V4L, and ASoC. -- Péter -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
