The CX20811 adds a mono digital PWM class D

amplifier for ringer and audio playback functions. The
class D amplifier output drives up to 1W-rms into a 4
load. The PWM output can be configured to support an
external output stage amplifier for higher output power
applications.

The CX20810 features high-resolution digital and

analog gain control over a wide range, allowing a
selection of optimal operating points for microphones
with a wide range of sensitivity. The smooth gain
ramping circuit allows dynamically adjusting microphone
gain without introducing audible artifacts.

Digitally controlled gain adjustment:

Analog gain 0dB to 30dB with 0.5dB steps
Digital gain 74dB to 12dB with 0.125dB steps
Gain ramping minimizes audible artifacts when
gain switching
Integrated offset calibration to minimize the BOM
Four programmable biquads to configure Q-notch,
HPF, or other type of filters
Integrated LDO allows single supply (3V~5.5V) to
minimize the BOM
Integrated charge pump for power management
Consumes very low power; 0.02mW in sleep mode
Digital class D PWM output up to 1W into 4
speakers on the CX20811

The CX20810 is a high performance, analog front-end,

high-definition voice capture IC for voice recognition,
control, and conferencing applications. The device
supports a microphone array with up to four synchronized
ADCs and programmable pre-amplifiers. Each preamplifier has a dedicated micbias supply that eliminates
crosstalk. The entire input path guarantees 106dB
dynamic range, which allows the voice system to use the
full performance of a high SNR microphone using low
microphone boost to prevent microphone saturation. This
path is critical for far field applications, and also ideal for
compact speaker-phone designs where the microphone
and speakers are in close proximity.
