Stereo DAC
The WM8706 is a high performance stereo DAC designed
for audio applications such as DVD, home theatre systems,
and digital TV. The WM8706 supports data input word
lengths from 16 to 32-bits and sampling rates up to 192kHz.
The WM8706 can implement 2 channels at 192kHz for high-
end DVD-Audio. The WM8706 consists of a serial interface
port, digital interpolation filters, multi-bit sigma delta
modulators and stereo DAC in a small 28-lead SSOP
package. The WM8706 also includes a digitally controllable
mute and attenuate function on each channel.
