Dolphin Integration: the embedded audio CODEC with smallest power consumption on the market
Meylan, France – January 25, 2010 -- The Helium architecture, already successfully implemented by Dolphin Integration in 130 nm G audio CODECs, is now adapted to the 180 nm and its shrunk versions at 160 nm and 152 nm. Specifically suited for portable applications requiring the longest playback capability, Helium components are cost-optimized both through silicon area and through lowest Bill-of-Material. It meanwhile provides the smallest power consumption, leaving far behind the competing embedded solutions currently available. Indeed, its complete DAC to headphone path achieves a power consumption as low as 7.5 mW in playback mode in 180 nm.
These figures encompass of course the power consumption of both the analog and logic parts with the PLL-less circuitry!
A complete range of cores and peripherals is offered thanks to the JAXAUDIO approach, namely a kit of pre-designed elements, ready-for-assembly for a fast and safe release of high resolution Delta-Sigma Audio Converters such as 95 dB DAC and 85 dB ADC cores, with headphone driver, microphone, speaker driver... – This method enables delivering specialized configurations perfectly matching application constraints.
shDAC95.MP02-Helium, a 95 dB Helium DAC and headphone driver is upgradable in 180 nm and its shrunk versions into a first Dolphin CODEC for smart phones with line-input and output, microphone, headphone and speaker driver.
