IEC 60958-1:2004
Digital audio interface - Part 1: General
IEC 60958-1:2004 describes a serial, uni-directional, self-clocking interface for the interconnection of digital audio equipment for consumer and professional applications. It specifies the basic structure of the interface. Separate documents define items specific to particular applications. The interface is primarily intended to carry monophonic or stereophonic programmes, encoded using linear PCM and with a resolution of up to 24 bits per sample. This second edition of IEC 60958-1 cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1999 and constitutes a technical revision. The major changes are:- Annex B has been added to explain the definition given in 5.3 with relation of the families of the IEC 60958 series.- Clause 5.3 is also added to this description.- Annex C has been added to explain the relationship of the IEC 60958 series families.- Annex D has been added as an explanation for a data transmission other than linear PCM.- Subclause 5.4 has been added to define category code appliance. This bilingual version (2013-07) corresponds to the monolingual English version, published in 2004-03.

Describes a serial, uni-directional, self-clocking interface for the interconnection of digital audio equipment for consumer and professional applications, using linear PCM coded audio samples. It provides the basic structure of the interface. Separate documents define items specific to particular applications.
IEC 60958-1:2008 describes a serial, uni-directional, self-clocking interface for the interconnection of digital audio equipment for consumer and professional applications. It provides the basic structure of the interface. Separate documents define items specific to particular applications. The interface is primarily intended to carry monophonic or stereophonic programmes, encoded using linear PCM and with a resolution of up to 24 bits per sample. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2004 and constitutes a technical revision. It includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: Electrical and optical requirements are removed from IEC 60958-3; they are specified in IEC 60958-1.
