WM8944B Datasheet, PDF (1/165 Pages) Cirrus Logic – Mono Low-Power CODEC with Video Buffer
WM8944B
Mono Low-Power CODEC with Video Buffer
DESCRIPTION
The WM8944B is a highly integrated low power hi-fi CODEC
designed for portable devices such as digital still cameras.
Up to 2 analogue inputs may be connected; a stereo digital
microphone interface is also provided. Flexible output mixing
options support single-ended and differential configurations,
with outputs derived from the digital audio paths or from
analogue bypass paths. Mono line output and mono BTL
headphone/speaker drive is supported.
Flexible digital mixing and powerful DSP functions are
available. Programmable filters and other processes may be
applied to the ADC and DAC signal paths simultaneously. The
DSP functions include 5 notch filters, 5-band EQ, dynamic
range control and the ReTune™ feature.
The ReTune™ feature is a sophisticated digital filter that can
compensate for imperfect characteristics of the housing,
loudspeaker or microphone components in an application.
The ReTune algorithm can provide acoustic equalisation and
selective phase (delay) control of specific frequency bands.
The WM8944B is controlled via a I2C or SPI interface.
Additional functions include Digital beep generator, Video
buffer, programmable GPIO functions, Frequency Locked
Loop (FLL) for flexible clocking support and integrated LDO
for low noise supply regulation.
The WM8944B is supplied in 25-ball W-CSP package, ideal
for portable systems.
