The NAU8812 is a cost effective and low power wideband MONO audio CODEC. It is designed for voice telephony
related applications. Functions include Automatic Level Control (ALC) with noise gate, PGA, standard audio interface
I S, PCM with time slot assignment, and on-chip PLL. The device provides one differential microphone input and one
single ended auxiliary input (multi purpose). There are few variable gain control stages in the audio path. It also
includes MONO line output and integrated BTL speaker driver.
The analog inputs have PGA on the front end, allowing dynamic range optimization with a wide range of input
sources. The microphone amplifiers have a programmable gain from -12dB to +35.25dB to handle both amplified
microphones. In addition to a digital high pass filter to remove DC offset voltages, the ADC also features voice band
digital filtering. Voice-band data is accepted by the audio interface (I S). The DAC converter path includes filtering
and mixing, programmable-gain amplifiers (PGA), and soft muting.
The digital interfaces, 2-Wire or SPI, have
2
2
independent supply voltage to allow integration into multiple supply systems. The NAU8812 operates at supply
voltages from 2.5V to 3.6V, although the digital core can operate at voltage as low as 1.71V to save power.

Notes

3.
4.
The 32-QFN package includes a bulk ground connection pad on the underside of the chip. This bulk ground
should be thermally tied to the PCB, and electrically tied to the analog ground.
Unused analog input pins should be left as no-connection.
Under all condition when digital pins are not used they should be tied to ground.
Pins designated as NC (Not Internally Connected) should be left as no-connection
