The MAX9867 is an ultra-low power stereo audio codec designed for portable consumer devices such as mobile phones and portable gaming consoles. The device features stereo differential microphone inputs that can be connected to either analog or digital microphones. The single-ended line inputs, with configurable preamplifier, can be sent to the ADC for record or routed directly to the headphone amplifier for playback. An auxiliary ADC path can be used to track any DC voltage. The stereo headphone amplifiers support differential, single-ended, and capacitorless output configurations. Using the capacitorless output configuration, the device can output 10mW into 32 headphones. Comprehensive click-and-pop circuitry suppresses audible clicks and pops during volume changes and startup or shutdown.
