AKD4492-SB-TypeS is the best evaluation board for audio solution to need high quality sound and area
saving, such as Hi-Fi audio solution for smartphone, high end portable audio equipment and USB-DAC.
The AKD4492-SB-TypeS is equipped with 32 bit DAC AK4492, audio-only PLL AK8157A and LPF
visceral headphone amplifer AK4205. Therefore the board is possible to drive headphone with ultra low
distortion and ultra low noise. Moreover AK1110, 5V LDO designated for the DAC, can realize good
characteristics and high quality sound. The AKD4492-SB-TypeS has digital audio interfaces. They can
interface to digital audio systems via optical or coaxial connector.

■ Ordering Guide

AKD4492-SB-TypeS -- Evaluation board composed of AK4492, AK4205, AK8157A and AK1110.
(Control software and Power supply cable includes in this package.)
 SPDIF is accepted by Digital Audio Interface (AK4118A).
 I2S data and DSD data is inputted directly through the 10-pins header for the external
digital input interface.
 AK4492-SB has AK8157A(PLL for audio) for application processor of smartphone.
 Easy control is possible because of the PIC micro controller for the device control on
the board.
 Only single power supply +3.7V can operate AKD4492-SB-TypeS because of LDO and
DCDC on the board.
