DESCRIPTION
The AIC111 IC design specification serves to provide
product development teams with a guideline for how the
AIC111 IC is specified and programmable options that are
available. The document outlines a top-level block
description of the IC along with system specifications and
functions. Individual block descriptions and target
specifications are also outlined.
The Texas Instruments AIC111 is a TI µPower DSP
compatible, or microcontroller compatible audio codec
product, or analog interface circuit. The AIC111 is part of
a comprehensive family of DSP/µC based high-
performance analog interface solutions. The AIC111 is
targeted primarily at personal medical devices, such as
hearing instruments, aural preprocessing applications,
and low-power headset applications. The AIC111 is used
in any design requiring a programmable time constant
PGA/compressor interface, high dynamic range
analog-to-digital converter, an external DSP/µC
handling signal processing, or a low distortion
digital-to-analog converter with a balanced H-Bridge
speaker driver. It supports a CMOS digital interface
tailored for TI DSPs with the McBSP protocol such as
TMS320VC54x DSP family and SPI-based controllers
such as TI MSP430x family of microcontrollers. The
AIC111 also has an external microphone or sensor supply
and bias and power supply up low-battery monitor
indicator.
This document contains information on products in more than one phase of
development. The status of each device is indicated on the page(s) specifying its
electrical characteristics.
Please be aware that an important notice concerning availability, standard warranty, and use in critical applications of Texas Instruments
semiconductor products and disclaimers thereto appears at the end of this data sheet.
