FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Differential or single-ended voltage DAC output
114 dB DAC dynamic range, A-weighted, differential
−97 dB total harmonic distortion plus noise (THD + N),
differential
110 dB DAC dynamic range, A-weighted, single-ended
−95 dB THD + N, single-ended
The ADAU1962A is a high performance, single-chip digital-to-
analog converter (DAC) that provides 12 DACs with differential or
single-ended outputs using the Analog Devices, Inc., patented
multibit sigma-delta (Σ-Δ) architecture. A serial peripheral interface
(SPI)/I2C port is included, allowing a microcontroller to adjust
volume and many other parameters. The ADAU1962A operates
from 2.5 V digital and 3.3 V analog supplies. A linear regulator
is included to generate the digital supply voltage from the analog
supply voltage. The ADAU1962A is available in an 80-lead LQFP.

80-lead LQFP package
The ADAU1962A is designed for low EMI. This consideration
is apparent in both the system and circuit design architectures.
By using the on-board PLL to derive the internal master clock from
an external left-right frame clock (LRCLK), the ADAU1962A
can eliminate the need for a separate high frequency master clock
and can be used with or without a bit clock. The DACs are
designed using the latest Analog Devices continuous time
architectures to further minimize EMI. By using 2.5 V digital
supplies, power consumption is minimized, and the digital
waveforms are a smaller amplitude, further reducing emissions.
Note that throughout this data sheet, multifunction pins, such
as SCLK/SCL, are referred to by the entire pin name or by a
single function of the pin, for example, SCLK, when only that
function is relevant.
