Description
AD6255A is a single chip of Class-D audio
amplifier with USB/I
2
S interface and supports
recording function. When using the power supplied
from the USB port, AD6255A can drive a pair of up
to 1W speakers due to the built-in, high efficiency
and high performance class D amplifiers. The
device also has an I
2
S input port and I
2
S output port.
The I
2
S input port allows other external audio
sources to use the class D amplifier to share the
speakers. The I
2
S output port allows other high
performance audio device (i.e. AD8356A/AD8256A)
to be controlled by AD6255A.
