DESCRIPTION

The STA306 is a single chip solution for digital audio

processing and control in multi-channel applications.

device, it provides high-quality, high-efficiency, all

digital amplification. The device is extremely versatile

allowing for input of most digital formats including

192kHz, 24-bit DVD-Audio.

The internal 24-bit DSP allows for high resolution

processing at all standard input sample frequencies.

Processing includes volume control, filtering, bass

management, gain compression/limiting and PCM

grammable 28-bit biquads for EQ per channel, as

well as bass, treble and DC blocking. External clock-

ing can be provided at 4 different ratios of the input

sample frequency. All sample frequencies are up-

sampled for processing. Each internal processing

channel can receive any input channel, allowing flex-

ibility and the ability to perform active digital cross-

over for powered loudspeaker systems.

The serial audio data interface accepts many differ-

ent formats, including the popular I2S format. STx-

channels of DDX processing are performed.
