The TAD5242 is from a scalable family of devices. As part of the extended family of devices, the TAD5242 consists of a high-performance, low-power, flexible, mono/stereo, audio analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and audio digital-to-analog converter (DAC) with extensive feature integration. This device is intended for broad market applications such as ruggedized communication equipment, IP network camera, Professional Audio and multimedia applications. The high dynamic range of this device enables far-field audio recording with high fidelity. This device integrates a host of features that reduce cost, board space, and power consumption in space-constrained system designs. Package, performance, and compatible configuration across extended family make this device well suited for scalable system designs.

The TAD5242 consists of the following blocks:

• 2-channel, multibit, high-performance delta-sigma (ΔΣ) DACs
• Configurable single-ended, differential or pseudo-differential audio outputs
• Linear-phase digital interpolation filters
• Volume ramp up/down for each channel
• Configurable digital high-pass filter (HPF)
• Integrated low-jitter, phase-locked loop (PLL) supporting a wide range of system clocks
• Integrated digital and analog voltage regulators to support single-supply operation
