The AD1974 is a high performance, single-chip codec that pro-vides four analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) with differential inputs using the Analog Devices, Inc. patented multibit sigma-delta (Σ-Δ) architecture. An SPI port is included, allowing a microcontroller to adjust volume and many other parameters. The AD1974 operates from 3.3 V digital and analog supplies. The AD1974 is available in a single-ended output 48-lead LQFP.

The AD1974 is designed for low EMI. This consideration is apparent in both the system and circuit design architectures. By using the on-board phase-locked loop (PLL) to derive the master clock from the LR clock or from an external crystal, the AD1974 eliminates the need for a separate high frequency master clock and can also be used with a suppressed bit clock. The ADCs are designed using the latest continuous time architectures from Analog Devices to further minimize EMI. By using 3.3 V supplies, power consumption is minimized, further reducing emissions.

The model number is a specific version of a generic that can be purchased or sampled.

Status indicates the current lifecycle of the product. This can be one of 4 stages:

• Pre-Release: The model has not been released to general production, but samples may be available.
• Production: The model is currently being produced, and generally available for purchase and sampling.
• Last Time Buy: The model has been scheduled for obsolescence, but may still be purchased for a limited time.
• Obsolete: The specific part is obsolete and no longer available. Other models listed in the table may still be available (if they have a status that is not obsolete).

The package for this IC (i.e. DIP, SOIC, BGA). An Evaluation Board is a board engineered to show the performance of the model, the part is included on the board.
