WM8903
Ultra Low Power CODEC for Portable Audio Applications
DESCRIPTION
The WM8903 is a high performance ultra-low power stereo CODEC optimised for portable audio applications.
The device features stereo ground-referenced headphone
amplifiers using the Wolfson ‘Class W’ amplifier techniques incorporating an innovative dual-mode charge pump architecture - to optimise efficiency and power consumption during playback. The ground-referenced outputs eliminate headphone coupling
capacitors. Both headphone and line outputs include common mode feedback paths to reject ground noise.
Control sequences for audio path setup can be pre-loaded and executed by an integrated sequencer to reduce software driver development and eliminate pops and clicks via Wolfson’s SilentSwitch™ technology.
The analogue input stage can be configured for single ended or differential inputs. Up to 3 stereo microphone or line inputs may be connected. The input impedance is constant with PGA gain setting.
A stereo digital microphone interface is provided, which can also be mixed with the mic/line signals at the output mixers.
A dynamic range controller provides compression and level control to support a wide range of portable recording applications. Anti-clip and quick release features offer good performance in the presence of loud impulsive noises.
Common audio sampling frequencies are supported from a range of external clocks, either directly or generated via the Frequency Locked Loop (FLL).
