DESCRIPTION
The WM8739 is a stereo audio ADC. The WM8739 is
designed specifically for portable MP3 audio and speech
players and recorders. The WM8739 is also ideal for MD,
CD-RW machines and DAT recorders.
Stereo line-level audio inputs are provided, along with a
mute and volume function, and master or slave mode
clocking schemes. The device also has a programmable
high pass filter to remove residual DC offsets.
Stereo 24-bit multi-bit sigma delta ADCs are used with
oversampling digital interpolation and digital filters. Digital
audio output word lengths from 16-32 bits and sampling
rates from 8KHz to 96KHz are supported.
The device is controlled via a 2 or 3 wire serial interface.
The interface provides access to all features including
volume controls, mutes, de-emphasis and extensive power
management facilities. The device is available in a small 20-
pin SSOP package.
