PCM1609APTR

ADCs/DACs - Special Purpose Overview

The PCM1609APTR is an eight-channel, 24-bit audio digital-to-analog converter (DAC) from Texas Instruments. It utilizes delta-sigma modulation to achieve high-fidelity audio performance with a maximum sampling rate of 192 kHz. The device integrates a precision internal voltage reference and supports standard serial interfaces for control. Designed for professional audio applications, it delivers low distortion and noise characteristics suitable for multi-channel sound systems.

• Supports sampling rates up to 192 kHz
• Integrated delta-sigma modulation architecture
• Includes internal precision voltage reference

ADCs/DACs - Special Purpose Applications

• Professional audio mixing consoles
• Multi-channel home theater systems
• Broadcasting equipment
• High-end audio processors

ADCs/DACs - Special Purpose Procurement Notes

The PCM1609APTR is classified as Not Recommended for New Designs (NRND). Engineers should verify current availability and consider long-term supply constraints before implementation. Alternative components within the Texas Instruments portfolio may be required for new product development cycles.

ADCs/DACs - Special Purpose Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring eight synchronized audio outputs with high resolution. Ensure the system supports the required serial interface protocols. Verify power supply requirements match the device specifications. Consider end-of-life status when planning production lifecycles.

ADCs/DACs - Special Purpose Part Context

This part belongs to the PCM1609 family of audio DACs. The 'PTR' suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging for automated assembly. It is distinct from transceiver or CODEC variants in the Texas Instruments audio lineup.

ADCs/DACs - Special Purpose Replacement Considerations

Due to the NRND status, direct pin-compatible replacements are not explicitly listed in public documentation. Review Texas Instruments' current audio DAC portfolio for modern alternatives with similar channel counts and performance metrics.
