LG WL2SB23 Wireless Audio Module

LG WL2SB23 Wireless Audio Module

General Specifications

WL2SB23 is based on IA9QH5 chipset that complied with 5.2/5.8GHz ISM Band, and it is the small size and low power module for Wireless Audio.
IA9QH5 is a system-on-chip (SOC) designed for low-power and low-cost applications. It is a highly integrated single chip transceiver, supporting multiple audio inter faces such as I2S, S/PDIF, and USB.
IA9QH5 provides dual transmitter and receiver modes, which enables the seamless and bi-directional transmission of high quality audio. In the transmitter, TX receives digitized stereo as input, which is packetized and processed for synchronization and data integrity. In the receiver, Rx receives RF signal, demodulated and processed to restore the transmitted signal, and then streamed as digital audio output.

WL1SB23 Operation description

  • First: the module is powered on and started by 3.3V;
  • Second: the host transmits the audio signal to the module through I2S;
  • Third: THE IA9QH5 on the module decodes the I2S audio signal.
  • Fourth: the IA9QH5 RF chip on the module transmits the audio through wireless transmission;
  • Fifth: there is I2C communication between the module and the host, both sides obtain the status and control through I2C;
  • The product automatically stops the transmission if the information fails to be transferred or the operation fails.
  • WL1SB23 as the main device

WL2SB23 Operation description

  • First: The module is powered on and started by 3.3V;
  • Second: The IA9QH5 RF chip on the module receives the audio signal transmitted by the transmitting module through wireless transmission;
  • Third: MCU IA9QH5 decodes the acquired audio signal and transmits the audio to the power amplifier on the subwoofer power amplifier board through I2S;
  • Fourth: There is I2C communication between the module and the subwoofer power amplifier board, initializing the power amplifier on the subwoofer power amplifier board, and IO port communication between the module and the subwoofer power amplifier board, controlling the power amplifier switch and LED state display.
  • WL2SB23 is a client device controlled by the WL1SB23.

WL1SB23 device is classified as a master device.
WL2SB23 is classified as a Client device under the control of the WL1SB23.
The product automatically stops the transmission if the information fails to be transferred or the operation fails.
ISED RSS-247 (6.4) required by the technology
When there is no information to transmit or an operation fails, the device automatically discontinue transmission. After the transmission is discontinued, the TX module enters the reconnection state until it is reconnected or the power supply is switched off passively. After the transmission is discontinued, the RX module enters the RE-connection state for one minute, IF no connection, enters the standby mode after one minute.
FCC 15.407 (c) required by the technology
The device would automatically discontinue transmission if there is no information to transmit or if the operation fails. After the transmission is discontinued, the TX module enters the reconnection state until it is reconnected or the power supply is switched off passively. After the transmission is discontinued, the RX module enters the RE-connection state for one minute, IF no connection, enters the standby mode after one minute.
WL1SB23 (TX module):
The reconnection state is TX will transmit control signal to RX for pair each other.
The TX re-try to transmit control signal to RX on complete frame or burst intervals until they connect successfully or power supply be off passively.
WL2SB23 (RX module):
The connection state is no transmit data by RX module. It’s only permit to transmit the information that is repetitive codes to TX on complete frame or burst intervals.
The standby mode is enter sleep mode to save consumption power.
On this mode, the RX doesn’t transmit any information or data to TX.
The module-[WL1SB23] is installed in the speaker, and the signal of the sound is provided through the HDMI or Optical ports of the TV audio products; When the speaker receive the sound signal, it will transmit the sound signal to another speaker (which is installed with the module-[WL2SB23]).
