PCM1774: Audio DAC recommendation request

Part Number: PCM1774
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TAD5242, TAD5112, TLV320DAC3120

Tool/software:

Hi, TI expert

The customer is looking for an Audio DAC.

- Application: Industrial and vehicle driving record type AI BOX.

The Audio ADC is going to be reviewed as TLV320ADC, and also a 2-CH Audio DAC.

From what I found on the web, it seems that a spec of PCM1774 would be sufficient, but since it is a very old product, I would like to request a recommendation for a product with the same level of specs.

(Is there any plan to EOL PCM1774?)

1) The customer's product does not have MEDIA playback, and the specifications are limited to voice guidance.

2) The EXTERNAL SPEAKER cannot be controlled and a product with POP NOISE countermeasures is required when POWER ON/OFF.

Please check. Thank you.

  • Hello Grady,

    I am not aware of any plans for EOL for PCM1774.Based on your original pick, the other DACs with similar functionality are TAD5112 (stereo) are TLV320DAC3120(mono) . TAD5112 is one of  our new top of the line DACs which pop noise reduction is one of its characteristics, (TLV320 has de-pop function as well) . In general  I would recommend TAD5112. We do have hardware control version of this DAC as well (TAD5242) that can be considered, if I2C control is not required. 

    Regards,
