The present invention provides an audio control circuit comprising an USB interface and a processing circuit is disclosed. The USB interface is used to connect to a host device, and the processing circuit is configured to perform enumeration with the host device via the USB interface, and the processing circuit is further configured to determine if the host device operates in a BIOS stage or an operating system stage to generate a control signal according to packets of the enumeration. When the processing circuit determines that the host device operates in the BIOS stage, the processing circuit generates the control signal to enable a de-pop circuit; and when the processing circuit determines that the host device operates in the operating system stage, the processing circuit generates the control signal to disable the de-pop circuit.

Audio control circuit and associated control method

The present invention provides an audio control circuit, wherein the audio control circuit includes a USB interface circuit, a specific interface circuit and a processing circuit. In the operation of the audio control circuit, the processing circuit receives a plurality of parameters from a host device through the specific interface circuit; and during an enumeration between the audio control circuit and the host device, the processing circuit uses the plurality of parameters to perform the enumeration.

Audio control circuit, host device and associated control method

A circuit and a method for controlling an audio adapter are provided. The audio adapter includes a button and a microphone, and the microphone is adapted for generating a recorded data. The control circuit includes a button detection circuit, a first-in, first-out (FIFO) data buffer, a USB endpoint buffer, a mute circuit and a USB endpoint control circuit. The button detection circuit is used for detecting whether the button is triggered. The FIFO data buffer is used for storing the recorded data. The USB endpoint buffer is used for storing the recorded data. The mute circuit is used for controlling whether the recorded data is transmitted to the USB endpoint buffer according to whether the button is triggered. The USB endpoint control circuit is used for controlling whether the audio adapter outputs the recorded data according to whether the button is triggered.

Circuit and method for controlling audio adapter

A control method and a control system for an audio device are disclosed. The control method and control system are applied to a USB audio adapter that includes an analog audio interface and is connected to a host. The control method includes steps of: detecting whether the analog audio interface is connected to a target device or detecting a function of the target device, and generating a detection result accordingly; controlling the USB audio adapter to operate in a disconnected mode; and controlling the USB audio adapter to continue operating in the disconnected mode according to the detection result, or controlling, according to the detection result, the USB audio adapter to operate in a connected mode and transmit audio data to the host and/or receive audio data from the host.
