The D2-926xx family of the DAE-3™ and DAE-3HT™ Digital
Audio Engine™ devices are complete System-on Chip (SoC)
multi-channel digital sound processors and Class-D amplifier
controllers.
The integrated DSP provides efficient and configurable audio
signal path processing including equalization, dynamic range
compression, mixing, and filtering that is completely
configurable via the Audio Canvas™ III high level programming
interface. The integrated PWM engine supports programmable
and dynamic control of audio output, enabling a variety of
multi-channel output configurations and output power
capacity. Internal noise shaping, an embedded asynchronous
sample rate converter, dynamic level-dependent timing, and
high resolution operation supports power stage audio
performances with SNR >110dB and THD+N < 0.01%.
The D2-926xx devices are provided in two package and feature
configurations which include the 128-pin DAE-3, and the72-pin
DAE-3HT. Both the DAE-3 and DAE-3HT provide identical
performance and enable an extremely flexible platform for
feature rich and cost-affordable quality audio solutions, which
benefit from the addition of Class-D amplifiers and DSP audio
processing.
The 12 integrated digital PWM controllers can be used in a
variety of multi-channel audio system configurations,
supporting powered as well as line outputs. Fully protected
amplifier control provides efficient and clean Class-D power
output support.
