Figure 22.4 shows the block format, which consists of 192 continuous frames. One block begins at 
the starting frame (preamble B) and ends at the 192nd frame (frame 191), and the preamble is used 
to identify all subframes. Each block has a total of 384 subframes, which are classified into three 
categories: subframe 0 indicating the beginning of a new block, subframe 1 (usually the channel 
1), and subframe 2 (usually the channel 2). Usually, the music data sent and received by the 
SPDIF is continuous so that continuous blocks appear.

Table 22.2 shows the binary values of the Renesas SPDIF preambles. The polarity of these 
preambles differs depending on the status of the preceding symbol (parity bit).

Note:  As shown in figure 22.3, the even parity bit at time slot 31 of a subframe determines the 
type of a preamble for one cycle of transmission. Usually, therefore, any one is selected 
from the set states that are sent through the Renesas SPDIF. However, IEC60958 requires 
decoding both types in view of connection with the preamble polarity reversed; the Renesas 
SPDIF has preambles decoded according to table 22.2. 
 
Channel status information is encoded at the rate of one bit per subframe, making the channel 
status information per block have a total of 192 bits for each of subframes 1 and 2. For the format 
of the channel status, refer to the IEC 60958 standard.
