Introduction
nRF24Z1 provides a true single chip system for CD quality audio streaming of up to16 bit 48 kSPS audio,
supporting up to 24 bit 48 kSPS input. I2S and S/PDIF interfaces are supported for audio input/output (I/
O). Seamless interfacing of low cost A/D and D/A for analog audio input and output. SPI or 2-wire (I2C
compatible) control serial interfaces. Embedded voltage regulators yield maximum noise immunity and
allow operation from a single 2.0V to 3.6V supply.
