CONEXANT CX2077X

CX2077x USB Audio Codec IC with Integrated DSP
and Tri-color PWM LED Driver
Innovative cost-effective single-chip solution enables superior audio
Conexant’s CX2077x is the first USB audio
codec Integrated Circuit (IC) product family that
incorporates the functionality of a digital audio/
voice processor, USB audio codec, and Tricolor Pulse-Width Modulator (PWM) driver, and
digital audio interfaces in one cost-effective,
single-chip package. The award-winning Digital
Signal Processor (DSP) runs a suite of turnkey
audio and voice algorithms that greatly
enhances the voice and audio experience. The
devices are part of Conexant’s embedded
audio solutions and are specifically designed
for USB audio peripherals, including headsets,
headphones, and microphones. The CX2077x
product family includes CX20773, CX20774,
and CX20776.
The on-chip DSP runs a suite of innovative
Conexant proprietary voice processing
algorithms and audio post processing effects
that dramatically improves sound quality and
frees up processing power for other
applications without compromising on cost and
future firmware scalability. Key audio
innovations include Subband Acoustic Echo
Cancellation, Dynamic Range Control, Inband
Microphone Noise Reduction, 3D, and
Microphone Auto Gain Control.
Conexant’s innovative CX2077x product family
contains an industry-first internal tri-color RGB
(red, green, blue) PWM driver and controller.
Each LED output contains an 8-bit resolution
PWM controller for brightness and dimming
control, enabling designers to create
differentiated user-friendly products. The onchip RGB PWM significantly reduces the Bill-ofMaterial (BOM) costs.
The audio performance is optimized with stereo
high fidelity 24-bit DAC. All internal analog
circuitry uses differential signaling to guard
against noise coupling from interfering RF. The
external BOM cost is minimized with internal
PLL and headset in-rush circuit.
The CX2077x turnkey solutions eliminate the
need for a multiple-chip reference design,
making it easy and economical for
manufacturers to design high-quality audio
products. A complete evaluation kit with
reference board and all the necessary technical
documents and software is available.
