8.5 AES/EBU and S/PDIF standards
In general, there are two different standards when the subject is digital signal
processing. AES/EBU is the professional, balanced connection with XLR jack
connectors. This interface is based on two identical protocols published in
November 1985 by the European Broadcast Union (EBU Tech. 3250-E) and in
December 1985 by the Audio Engineering Society (AES3-1985). Sony and Philips
oriented themselves around this standard and developed an additional interface
with unbalanced signal routing and several important differences that primarily
have to do with allocating channel status bits. This standard, named after the
two com-panies (S/PDIF = Sony/Philips Digital Interface) uses either cinch jacks
or a digital connection with optical cables. It is relevant mostly because of the
attempt to introduce copy protection embedded in the IEC 958 norm. This norm
describes both the re-worked AES/EBU interface that has been modified to work
with the S/PDIF format and described as IEC 958 Typ I (Professional). The formal
description of the S/PDIF interface is IEC 958 Typ II (Consumer).
