The AK4524 is a high performance 24bit CODEC for the 96kHz recording system. The ADC has an
Enhanced Dual Bit architecture with wide dynamic range. The DAC uses the new developed Advanced
Multi Bit architecture and achieves low outband noise and high jitter tolerance by use of SCF (switched
capacitor filter) techniques. The AK4524 has an input PGA and is well suited MD, DVTR system and
musical instruments.

Note: 7. The passband and stopband frequencies scale with fs. For example, 20.02kHz at -0.02dB is 0.454 x fs.
The reference frequency of these responses is 1kHz.
8. The calculating delay time which occurred by digital filtering. This time is from the input of analog signal to
setting the 24bit data of both channels to the output register for ADC.
For DAC, this time is from setting the 24bit data of both channels on input register to the output of analog
signal.
9. fs=96kHz.
