The MICBAIS will not supply if there is only one path from MICP to input boost stage. The driver fixes the issue by changing the supply target to input boost stage mixer.
Does the input boost stage actually use the MICBIAS supply directly? More usually a microphone bias would supply the microphone rather than anything on the chip itself.
The input boost stage has a mixer of two input sources. The normal case is that MIC goes to input PGA, then to input boot stage. The case is the original design of the driver. But there is another path that MIC goes input boot stage directly. The case is less happened but has chance. Ex. The single-end MIC goes to input boot stage. Therefore, we move the target of MICBIAS to input boost stage which can supply power for both cases.
