1. General Description
EDSP-1701-24-A is a 2 channel in 4 channel out DSP pre-amplifier module base on ADAU1701 Sigma
DSP with customized design and mainly suit for both consumer and professional project.
The ADAU1701 is a complete single-chip audio system with a 28-/56-bit audio DSP, ADCs, DACs, and
microcontroller-like control interfaces. Signal processing includes equalization, crossover, bass
enhancement, multiband dynamics processing, delay compensation, speaker compensation, and
stereo image widening. This processing can be used to compensate for real-world limitations of
speakers, amplifiers, and listening environments, providing dramatic improvements in perceived
audio quality.
With improved and customized design to obtain highest performance and lowest cost, this module
provide an excellent audio solution that highly compact and efficiency into the audio product
design.
