AK4116VN

Overview

The AK4116VN is a digital audio receiver IC manufactured by Asahi Kasei Microdevices. It supports S/PDIF, AES/EBU, and IEC 60958 input formats with a maximum sampling rate of 192 kHz. The device features a 20-VFQFN package (4.2x4.2 mm) and operates on a single 2.7V to 3.6V supply voltage. It includes an integrated PLL for clock recovery and provides serial data output compatible with standard audio interfaces.

Feature Summary

• Supports S/PDIF, AES/EBU, and IEC 60958 digital audio inputs
• Maximum sampling frequency of 192 kHz
• Integrated Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) for clock regeneration
• 20-pin QFN package (4.2x4.2 mm) for compact surface mount applications

Applications

• Home theater systems
• Digital audio workstations
• Professional audio equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'VN' against official datasheets to confirm pinout and electrical characteristics match the 20-QFN (4.2x4.2mm) specification. Ensure compatibility with the required 2.7V-3.6V power supply range and check for moisture sensitivity handling requirements during storage and assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring robust digital audio reception from S/PDIF or AES/EBU sources. It is suitable for space-constrained PCB layouts due to its small QFN footprint. Verify that the host processor can interface with the provided serial data output format and that the operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C meets environmental requirements.

Part Context

The AK4116 series is part of Asahi Kasei Microdevices' portfolio of digital audio interface receivers. This family focuses on low-power consumption and high-performance clock recovery for consumer and professional audio applications. The VN variant specifically denotes the 20-QFN package configuration.
