The MAX9860 is a low-power, voiceband, mono audio codec designed to provide a complete audio solution for wireless voice headsets and other mono voice audio devices. Using an on-chip bridge-tied load mono headphone amplifier, the MAX9860 can output 30mW into a 32Ω earpiece while operating from a single 1.8V power supply. Very low power consumption makes it an ideal choice for battery-powered applications.The MAX9860's flexible clocking circuitry utilizes common system clock frequencies ranging from 10MHz to 60MHz, eliminating the need for an external PLL and multiple crystal oscillators. Both the ADC and DAC support sample rates of 8kHz to 48kHz in either synchronous or asynchronous operation. Both master and slave timing modes are supported.Two differential microphone inputs are available with a user-programmable preamplifier and programmable gain amplifier. Automatic gain control with selectable attack/release times and signal threshold allows maximum dynamic range. A noise gate with selectable threshold provides a means to quiet the channel when no signal is present. Both the DAC and ADC digital filters provide full attenuation for out-of-band signals as well as a 5th order GSM-compliant digital highpass filter. A digital side tone mixer provides loopback of the microphones/ADC signal to the DAC/headphone output.Serial DAC and ADC data is transferred over a flexible digital I²S-compatible interface that also supports TDM mode. Mode settings, volume control, and shutdown are programmed through a 2-wire, I²C-compatible interface.The MAX9860 is fully specified over the -40°C to +85°C extended temperature range and is available in a low-profile, 4mm x 4mm, 24-pin thin QFN package.Request S/W DriversApplicationsAudio AccessoriesAudio HeadsetsMobile PhonesPortable Navigation DeviceSmart PhonesVoIP Phones

The MAX9921 provides a single chip solution to interface two 2-wire Hall-effect sensors to a low-voltage microprocessor (µP). This device supplies and monitors the current drawn by two Hall-effect sensors, filters the sensed current level, and outputs the corresponding logic level.The MAX9921 includes input diagnostics and fault protection. These features allow the device to determine fault conditions such as open inputs, inputs shorted to the battery, and inputs shorted to ground. If the MAX9921 detects any of these conditions at either IN1 or IN2, the device shuts off the current to the corresponding input. The MAX9921 protects the Hall sensors from supply transients up to 60V at the BAT supply. Normal operating supply voltage ranges from 6V to 18V. If the battery voltage is out of range, the MAX9921 shuts off the current to the Hall sensors.The MAX9921 provides an 80µs blanking time following Hall sensor power-up or restart. The open-drain logic outputs are compatible with logic levels up to 5.5V.The MAX9921 is available in a small 10-pin µMAX® package and is specified over the -40°C to +125°C automotive temperature range.ApplicationsDoor ModulesElectric SunroofsPowered Lift Gate ControllersPowered Running BoardsSeat MoversSeatbelt BucklesWindow Lifters
