CS496102-CQZ

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Overview

The CS496102-CQZ is a highly integrated audio system processor from the Cirrus Logic CS4961xx family, combining CobraNet technology with a 32-bit fixed-point DSP core. It provides 2 serial audio inputs and 2 serial audio outputs, supporting sample rates up to 96 kHz. The device features selectable network latency of 1.33, 2.66, or 5.33 ms and includes a high-speed parallel host port interface for optional host processor connection. Designed for digital audio networking applications, it eliminates the need for separate dedicated audio DSPs in professional and commercial systems.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Feature Summary

• Integrates CobraNet interface with a 120 MIPS 32-bit DSP core
• Provides 2-channel synchronous serial digital audio I/O
• Supports 48 kHz and 96 kHz sample rates with selectable latency (1.33/2.66/5.33 ms)
• Includes parallel host control and asynchronous serial control transport

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Applications

• Power amplifiers
• Mixing consoles
• Signal processors
• Intercom systems
• Networked consumer audio

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors. Confirm RoHS compliance status as lead-free packaging availability may vary. Check for specific industrial grade variants if operating temperature requirements exceed standard ranges. Ensure firmware compatibility with existing CobraNet network infrastructure before deployment.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Selection Notes

Select the CS496102-CQZ when only 2 simultaneous audio channels are required. Compare against CS496112 (8x8) and CS496122 (16x16) models if higher channel counts are needed. Consider the 144-pin LQFP package dimensions (22 mm x 22 mm) for PCB layout constraints. Evaluate SDK support via DSP Conductor software for custom parameter adjustments.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Part Context

The CS496102-CQZ belongs to the CS4961xx series, which also includes the CS496112 and CS496122. This family was designed to reduce overall system costs by integrating CobraNet technology directly with audio processing capabilities. The series supports bidirectional audio control and monitoring over Ethernet networks using SNMP.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include the CS496112-CQZ and CS496122-CQZ, offering 8 and 16 channels respectively. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility and firmware configuration differences when migrating between channel counts.
