1 General Description

The AS3514 is a low power stereo audio codec and is

designed for Portable Digital Audio Applications. It allows

playback in CD quality and recording in FM-stereo quality. It

has a variety of audio inputs and outputs to directly connect

electret microphones, 16

Ω headset, 4Ω speaker and auxiliary

signal sources via a 10-channel mixer. It only consumes 22mW

in playback mode.

Further the device offers advanced power management

functions. All necessary ICs and peripherals in a flash based

Digital Audio Player are supplied by the AS3514. The power

management block generates 9 different supply voltages out of

the battery supply. CPU, NAND flash, SRAM, memory cards,

LCD back-light, USB RX/TX can be powered. The different

supply voltages are programmable via the serial control

interface. It also contains a charger and is designed for battery

supplies from 1V to 5V.

The AS3514 has an on-chip, phase locked loop (PLL)

controlled, clock generator. It generates 44.1kHz, 48kHz and

other sample rates defined in MP3, AAC, WMA, OGG VORBIS

etc. No additional external crystal or PLL is needed. Further the

AS3514 has an independent 32kHz real time clock (RTC) on

chip which allows a complete power down of the system CPU.
