The CS44600 is a multi-channel digital-to-PWM Class D audio system controller including interpolation, sample rate
conversion, half- and full-bridge PWM driver outputs, and power supply rejection feedback in a 64-pin LQFP package.The architecture uses a direct-to-digital approach that maintains digital signal integrity to the final output filter,
minimizing analog interference effects which negatively affect system performance.
The CS44600 integrates on-chip digital volume control, peak detect with limiter, de-emphasis, and 7 GPIO’s, allowing easy interfacing to many commonly available power stages. The PWM amplifier can achieve greater than 90%
efficiency. This efficiency provides for smalle r device package, less heat sink requirements, and smaller power
supplies.
The CS44600 is ideal for audio systems requiring wide dynamic range, negligible distortion an d low noise, such as
A/V receivers, DVD receivers, digital speaker and automotive audio systems.

The CS44600 is a multi-channel digital-to-PWM Class D audio system controller including interpolation,

The CS44600 integrates on-chip sample rate conversion, digital volume control, peak detect with volume
limiter, de-emphasis, programmab le interrup t condit ions, and th e abilit y to chan ge the PW M switch ra te to
eliminate AM frequency interference. The CS44600 also has a programmable load compensation filter,
which allows the speaker load to vary while the output filter remains fixed, maintaining a flat frequency response. For single-ended half-bridge applications PWM Popguard
and realtime power supply feedback reduces noise coupling from the power supp ly. The PWM amplifier can
achieve greater than 90% efficiency. This efficiency provides for a smaller device package, less heat sink
requirements, and smaller power supplies.
The CS44600 is ideal for audio systems requiring wide dynamic range, negligible distortion, and low noise
such as A/V receivers, DVD receivers, digital speaker, and automotive audio systems.
