LM4543
AC ’97 Codec with National 3D Sound
General Description
The LM4543 is an audio codec for PC systems which per-
forms the analog-intensive function of the Analog Codec ’97
Rev 1.03 architecture. Using 18-Bit Σ∆ A/D and D/A convert-
ers, the LM4543 provides 90dB of dynamic range.
The LM4543 was designed specifically to provide a high
quality audio path and provide all analog functionality in a PC
audio system. It features full duplex stereo A/D’s and D/A’s
and an analog mixer with 4 stereo and 3 mono inputs, each
of which has separate gain, attenuation and mute control. In
addition, the LM4543 provides National’s 3D Sound stereo
enhancement technology.
The LM4543 features AC-Link, a synchronous, fixed rate se-
rial bus for connection to the digital AC ’97 Controller. The
separation of the analog and digital functions of the AC ’97
architecture allows for system design flexibility and in-
creased overall performance.
