This part of IEC 60958 enhances the consumer application of the interface for the interconnection of digital audio equipment defined in IEC 60958-1 and IEC 60958-3, introducing:
– multichannel;
– multi-stream;
– high-resolution;
– multimedia extension;
– related applications.
NOTE IEC 60958-3 specifies a consumer application to carry stereophonic programmes with a resolution of up to 24 bits per sample. This part of IEC 60958 enhances the application, allowing programmes with up to 64 channels,64 bits per sample, and two simultaneous streams.
