GENERAL DESCRIPTION
It is designed for voice
The NAU8811 is a cost effective and low power wideband MONO audio CODEC.
2
telephony related applications. Functions include Automatic Level Control (ALC) with noise gate, PGA, standard
audio interface I S, and PCM with time slot assignment. 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 Headphone (Headphone) 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 interface SPI have
2
independent supply voltage to allow integration into multiple supply systems. The NAU8811 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.
The NAU8811 is specified for operation from -40C to +85C. AEC-Q100 & TS16949 compliant device is
available upon request.

The exposed metal paddle on the bottom of the IC
supplies circuit ground(s) for the entire chip. It is
very important that a good solder connection is
made between this exposed metal paddle and the
ground plane of the PCB underlying the IC.

Notes
1.
The 20-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.
2.
3.
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.
