1.2Description
The TLV320AIC23B-Q1 is a high-performance stereo audio codec with highly integrated analog
functionality. The analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs) within the
TLV320AIC23B-Q1 use multibit sigma-delta technology with integrated oversampling digital interpolation
filters. Data-transfer word lengths of 16, 20, 24, and 32 bits, with sample rates from 8 kHz to 96 kHz, are
supported. The ADC sigma-delta modulator features third-order multibit architecture with up to 90-dBA
signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at audio sampling rates up to 96 kHz, enabling high-fidelity audio recording in a
compact, power-saving design. The DAC sigma-delta modulator features a second-order multibit
architecture with up to 100-dBA SNR at audio sampling rates up to 96 kHz, enabling high-quality digital
audio-playback capability, while consuming less than 23 mW during playback only. The TLV320AIC23BQ1 is the ideal analog input/output (I/O) choice for portable digital audio-player and recorder applications,

Integrated analog features consist of stereo-line inputs with an analog bypass path, a stereo headphone
amplifier, with analog volume control and mute, and a complete electret-microphone-capsule biasing and
buffering solution. The headphone amplifier is capable of delivering 30 mW per channel into 32 Ω. The
analog bypass path allows use of the stereo-line inputs and the headphone amplifier with analog volume
control, while completely bypassing the codec, thus enabling further design flexibility, such as integrated
FM tuners. A microphone bias-voltage output provides a low-noise current source for electret-capsule
biasing. The AIC23B has an integrated adjustable microphone amplifier (gain adjustable from 1 to 5) and
a programmable gain microphone amplifier (0 dB or 20 dB). The microphone signal can be mixed with the
output signals if a sidetone is required.
While the TLV320AIC23B-Q1 supports the industry-standard oversampling rates of 256 fsand 384 fs,
unique oversampling rates of 250 fsand 272 fsare provided, which optimize interface considerations in
designs using TI C54x digital signal processors (DSPs) and universal serial bus (USB) data interfaces. A
single 12-MHz crystal can supply clocking to the DSP, USB, and codec. The TLV320AIC23B-Q1 features
an internal oscillator that, when connected to a 12-MHz external crystal, provides a system clock to the
DSP and other peripherals at either 12 MHz or 6 MHz, using an internal clock buffer and selectable
divider. Audio sample rates of 48 kHz and compact-disc (CD) standard 44.1 kHz are supported directly
from a 12-MHz master clock with 250 fsand 272 fsoversampling rates.
Low power consumption and flexible power management allow selective shutdown of codec functions,
thus extending battery life in portable applications. This design solution makes powerful portable stereo
audio designs easily realizable in a cost-effective, space-saving total analog I/O solution: the
TLV320AIC23B-Q1.
