General Description

The MAX5556–MAX5559 stereo audio sigma-delta
digital-to-analog converters (DACs) offer a simple and
complete stereo digital-to-analog solution for media
servers, set-top boxes, video-game hardware, automo-
tive rear-seat entertainment and other general consumer
audio applications. These DACs feature built-in digital
interpolation/filtering, sigma-delta digital-to-analog con-
version and analog output filtering. Control logic and
mute circuitry minimize audible pops and clicks during
power-up, power-down, clock changes, or when invalid
clock conditions occur.

The MAX5556–MAX5559 receive input data over a flexi-
ble 3-wire interface, supporting I

2

S-compatible, left-jus-

tified, right-justified 16-bit, and right-justified 18-bit
audio data. Data can be clocked by either an external
or internal serial clock. The internal serial clock frequen-
cy is programmable by selection of a master clock
(MCLK) and sample clock (LRCLK) ratio. Sampling
rates from 2kHz to 50kHz are supported.

The MAX5556–MAX5559 operate from a single +4.75V
to +5.5V analog supply with total harmonic distortion
plus noise below -87dB. These devices are available in
8-pin SO packages and are specified over the -40°C to
+85°C industrial temperature range.
