CS44600-CQZ

The CS44600 pin-compatible Class-D digital audio amplifier controller provides a simple, small and cost-effective solution for DVD receivers, home theater recorders and entry-level audio/video recorders and home-theater-in-a-box systems.This multichannel digital-to-PWM (pulse width modulation) audio system controller includes interpolation, sample-rate conversion and half- and full-bridge PWM driver outputs. The architecture uses a direct-to-digital approach that maintains digital signal integrity to the final output filter, minimizing the effects of analog interference that negatively affect system performance.The 6-channel CS44600 offers technology enhancements that allow system designers to lower costs while improving audio quality. The product integrates on-chip digital volume control, peak detect with limiter and seven general-purpose I/Os that allow an easy interface to many power stages. The PWM amplifier can achieve 90 percent efficiency or more, allowing the design of smaller device packages, fewer heat-sink requirements and smaller power supplies.
