CS5364/66/68

The CS5368 premium-performance audio A/D converter is designed for today's demanding surround-sound consumer and multichannel pro audio applications. The highly integrated IC provides designers with a space-saving solution that streamlines product development, reduces design complexity and lowers overall system costs compared to boards that use multiple stereo A/D converters for surround-sound or multichannel designs. Resulting in smaller audio equipment that can be produced at a lower cost compared to today's products.

The CS5368 is the industry's first audio A/D converter to support a high-speed TDM interface which provides a serial output of 8 channels of audio data with sample rates up to 192 kHz within a single data stream. This capability reduces layout complexity and relieves input/output constraints in digital signal processors.

The on-chip level-shifter and oscillator drivers CS5364/66/68 further reduce complexity and simplify system design. The IC also features a differential architecture that provides excellent noise rejection and performs sampling, analog-to-digital conversion and anti-alias filtering.

The CS5368 uses a 5th-order, multibit Delta-Sigma architecture that provides superior 114 dB dynamic range and negligible distortion. Low-latency digital filtering, with the industry's shortest group delay, further preserves the original audio quality and experience, making the ICs ideal for real-time and live-sound applications.

The flagship CS5368 is an 8-channel converter and the CS5364 and CS5366 are its pin compatible 4- and 6-channel family members.
