Precision ADC for audio?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADS1610

Hi!

Can you tell me, why a high-speed precision ADC, like ADS1610, couldn't be used with an additional noise shaping, in order to create a nice audio ADC?

This converter's output features 16-bit with still almost 4^4 oversampling over the 48 kHz audio standard sampling frequency. Which means after further decimation filtering a S/N ratio of a 20-bit converter could be obtained. If an additional external noise shaping feedback could be added, the results would possibly surpass a 24-bit PCM converter, wouldn't they?

If such an application exists, could you give me some directions where to find information about it? Thanks a lot, best regards,

Andor
