AD1836A is a high performance single chip codec that provides three stereo DACs and two stereo ADCs using ADI’s patented multibit Σ-∆ architecture.
The AD1836A is a single‑chip, multichannel audio codec that provides three stereo digital‑to‑analog converters (DACs) and two stereo analog‑to‑digital converters (ADCs) using Analog Devices' patented multibit Σ‑Δ architecture. It operates from a 5 V supply and is available in a 52‑lead MQFP package, making it suitable for home‑theater, automotive audio, DVD recorders, set‑top boxes, and digital audio effect processors.
Key features include support for 24‑bit audio at up to 96 kHz sample rates, on‑chip volume control with auto‑ramp, programmable gain amplifiers, digital de‑emphasis processing, and flexible serial interfaces (I²S, DSP, TDM, SPI). The device also offers extensive timing specifications and power‑down modes for low‑power applications.
