Arda's audio products group is dedicated to fulfilling the needs of professional and consumer audio system manufacturers. Arda's Early Adopter Program (EAP) gives our key customers a voice in the product definition early on in the design and development process, thereby ensuring a product that is ideally suited to their needs.

red square AT1201 Flagship Audio A/D Converter red line red line

at1201 The AT1201 is a stereo A/D converter designed for the most uncompromising high performance audio systems. Using proprietary multi-bit sigma-delta modulation, the AT1201 provides the industry's highest dynamic range, lowest THD and sampling rate of up to 384kHz.

On-chip digital filters are designed for perceptually transparent response at all four sampling rates: 48kHz, 96kHz, 192kHz, and 384kHz. The filters can be bypassed to bring out multi-bit modulator outputs or DSD outputs directly to pins to enable the use of an external filter. Each of the three output modes (PCM, DSD, and multi-bit) can be enabled independently of the others potentially allowing all three to be active simultaneously. Contact us for an evaluation kit and samples.

red square AT12612 Low-Power Audio A/D Converter red line red line

at12612 The AT12612 is a high performance low-power stereo A/D converter that is pin-compatible with the AT1201.

Perceptually transparent on-chip digital filters provide PCM output up to 192kHz. The filters can be bypassed to bring multi-bit or DSD outputs directly to pins to enable the use of an external filter. Each of the three output modes (PCM, DSD, and multi-bit) can be enabled independently of the others potentially allowing all three to be active simultaneously.

red square AT1401 Flagship Audio D/A Converter red line red line

The AT1401 is a differential 24-bit D/A converter designed for ultra high performance audio systems. High output current of ±15.5 mA and compliance voltage of 625mVp-p help to maximize the SNR that can be achieved in the system.

An on-board, low noise reference generator and external resistor set the full scale current level. A pin programmable DAC for fine tuning of the full scale output allows easy matching of multiple devices for multi-channel applications.

Members of our Early Adopter Program (EAP) have access to design specifications and a chance to influence the feature set. Contact us for information on the EAP.
