The speed rate is
32 bit word per 16 bit PCM sample
multiplied with 2 for two channels
multiplied with 2 for the biphase-mark-code
multiplied with e.g. 48kHz
which is 6.144MHz
... now you have to read the preamble of each 32 bit
word to catch the starting one and rise the status
bit of the second and third (aka second bit for the
second channel) status bit and maybe the parity bit
is needed. And this should be switchable by the DVB
driver or firmware via a not used pin of the ARM.
