Product details
Overview
UDA1342TS/N1,518 from NXP Semiconductors is a 24-bit stereo audio CODEC IC integrating dual-channel 4-input ADCs with programmable gain amplifiers (0–24 dB), dual-channel DACs with FSDAC architecture, digital de-emphasis, bass/treble control, and L3/I²C/static pin configuration. It operates from 2.7–3.6 V, supports 16–110 kHz sampling, and targets portable MiniDisc recorders and playback systems requiring low-power, high-SNR analog front-end and flexible digital audio processing.
For engineers reviewing the UDA1342TS/N1,518 datasheet, UDA1342TS/N1,518 pinout, UDA1342TS/N1,518 application, or UDA1342TS/N1,518 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, exact pin functions, real-world audio system integration constraints, confirmed alternative parts with documented interface and feature trade-offs, and supply-chain support for volume production in consumer audio OEM designs.
Technical Context
The UDA1342TS/N1,518 implements bitstream conversion using a 5th-order noise shaper at 64fs and a Filter Stream DAC (FSDAC) that eliminates need for external analog post-filtering. Its ADC front-end features double-differential mode for +3 dB SNR improvement and DC-cancellation filters to suppress offset before digital mixing.
Digital audio routing includes independent left/right logarithmic volume control, mute with cosine roll-off (24 ms soft, 750 µs quick), and programmable input oversampling (1×/2×/4× fs) - where quad-speed mode (e.g., 192 kHz) disables tone controls and de-emphasis. Control is supported via L3-bus (dual device addresses), I²C-bus, or static pin mode with fixed format selection.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar audio CODEC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| UDA1341TS | Lower SNR (98 dB), no double-differential mode, identical pinout and L3/I²C interface. | Lacks advanced ADC noise performance; suitable only where 3 dB SNR margin is acceptable. | Select UDA1341TS only if cost reduction outweighs SNR requirement and double-differential mode is unused. |
| AK4537VN | 24-bit sigma-delta CODEC with 102 dB SNR, I²C-only control, no L3-bus or static pin mode. | Requires I²C host; lacks IPSEL channel select and QMUTE hardware mute; higher supply current (12 mA). | Choose AK4537VN when maximum SNR is critical and system already uses I²C-only architecture without need for pin-strapped configuration. |
Compared with UDA1342TS/N1,518, UDA1341TS trades 3 dB SNR and double-differential capability for lower cost in pin-compatible footprint, while AK4537VN offers +1 dB SNR but removes L3-bus flexibility and hardware quick-mute - making UDA1342TS/N1,518 optimal for MiniDisc-class portable systems needing balanced feature set, low power, and multiple control options.

FAQ
What is the maximum sampling frequency supported by the UDA1342TS/N1,518 with full feature set enabled?
The UDA1342TS/N1,518 supports full feature set - including de-emphasis, bass/treble, and digital mixing - up to 55 kHz when using a 768fs system clock. At 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz, all features operate normally; at 96 kHz in double-speed mode, only master volume and mute remain functional. Quad-speed mode (e.g., 192 kHz) disables all DSP features per datasheet Table 4.
Does the UDA1342TS/N1,518 require external analog filters for DAC output?
No, the UDA1342TS/N1,518 does not require external analog post-filtering. Its Filter Stream DAC (FSDAC) integrates a semi-digital reconstruction filter using current-source coefficients summed at the op-amp virtual ground, delivering inherent out-of-band noise attenuation. The datasheet explicitly states "No analog post filtering required for DAC" in Section 1 Features.
How is ADC input channel selection implemented on the UDA1342TS/N1,518?
ADC input channel selection on the UDA1342TS/N1,518 is performed via the IPSEL pin (Pin 9) in static pin mode, or through register 0x0E (ADC mode) in L3-bus/I²C mode. When IPSEL = 0, VINL1/VINR1 are active; when IPSEL = 1, VINL2/VINR2 are selected - enabling dual-source recording without MCU intervention in fixed-function designs.
What is the function of the QMUTE pin on the UDA1342TS/N1,518?
The QMUTE pin (Pin 23) provides hardware-level quick mute override for the UDA1342TS/N1,518. When asserted, it initiates a 32-sample cosine roll-off (750 µs at 44.1 kHz), bypassing software-controlled mute timing. This ensures pop-free muting during power-up, record start/stop, or user interface events - a critical reliability feature for portable audio products.
Can the UDA1342TS/N1,518 operate with different supply voltages for ADC and DAC sections?
Yes, the UDA1342TS/N1,518 supports independent analog supplies: VDDA(ADC) (Pin 3) and VDDA(DAC) (Pin 25) each accept 2.7–3.6 V. This allows separate regulation or sequencing - for example, powering DAC from a cleaner LDO while ADC runs from a switched supply - improving PSRR and minimizing crosstalk between conversion paths.
