The ALC260 provides two output channels with flexible mixing, mute, and fine gain controls to
provide a complete integrated audio solution. The ALC260 provides high-quality audio using
S/PDIF to output analog data or multiple-source recording applications. Jack-sensing allows
inputs and output device loads to be auto-detected. Analog IOs are both input and output
capable. The ALC260 supports 32-bit S/PDIF input/ output functions.
The feature list for the ALC260 is as follows:
Single-chip multi-bit Sigma-Delta converters with high S/N ratio
One stereo DAC that supports 16/20/24-bit PCM format with 44.1K/48K/96K/ 192kHz
sample rate
Two stereo ADCs that support 16/20-bit PCM format with 44.1K/48K/96kHz sample rate
High-quality differential CD analog input
–64dB ~ +30dB with 1dB mixer gain for fine volume control
Impedance-sensing capability for each re-tasking jack
Built-in headphone amplifier for each re-tasking jack
Meets Microsoft WHQL/WLP 2.0* audio requirements
