Product details
Overview
UDA1344TS/N2,518 from NXP Semiconductors is a low-voltage, low-power stereo audio CODEC integrating sigma-delta ADC and DAC with digital sound processing (DSP) features. It operates from a 3.0 V supply, supports sampling rates from 8 to 55 kHz, delivers 95 dB SNR (ADC) and 100 dB SNR (DAC), and enables record/playback in portable digital audio systems such as MP3 players and voice recorders.
For engineers reviewing the UDA1344TS/N2,518 datasheet, UDA1344TS/N2,518 pinout, UDA1344TS/N2,518 application, or UDA1344TS/N2,518 equivalent, this page provides verified functional identity, SSOP28 package mapping, L3- and static-pin control mode behavior, confirmed I²S/MSB/LSB interface compatibility up to 20 bits, and validated alternative options for stereo audio system design.
Technical Context
The UDA1344TS/N2,518 implements dual 3rd-order sigma-delta modulators for ADC and a cascade interpolation + noise-shaping architecture for DAC, both operating at 128× oversampling. Its analog front-end includes selectable 0 dB/6 dB gain and an optional IIR high-pass DC-cancellation filter controllable via L3 interface.
Digital interface flexibility is achieved through three operational modes: I²S-bus (up to 20-bit), MSB-justified (up to 20-bit), and LSB-justified (16/18/20-bit input with MSB-justified output). Control is supported either by static pins (MC1/MC2 HIGH) or full-featured L3 serial interface (MC1/MC2 LOW), where DSP functions-including de-emphasis (32/44.1/48 kHz), dB-linear volume control, bass boost, treble, and soft mute-are exclusively available.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar stereo audio CODEC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| UDA1340M | Pin- and function-compatible predecessor; supports only 1 V (RMS) ADC input (no 2 V option); lacks L3-mode DSP features like bass/treble control | Best suited for cost-sensitive legacy designs where advanced DSP is unnecessary and input signal levels are strictly ≤1 V (RMS) | Select UDA1340M only if existing layout uses it and no 2 V input or L3 DSP is required; UDA1344TS/N2,518 offers broader feature set and higher input headroom |
| AK4537VN | 24-bit stereo CODEC with 105 dB DAC SNR; requires 5 V analog supply; supports SPI instead of L3; no integrated DC cancellation filter | Targeted at higher-fidelity applications (e.g., prosumer audio gear) where SNR >100 dB and 24-bit resolution are mandatory | Choose AK4537VN when system design tolerates 5 V supply and demands superior dynamic range; UDA1344TS/N2,518 remains optimal for 3 V battery-powered portables needing integrated DSP and low power |
Compared with UDA1340M, UDA1344TS/N2,518 adds 2 V (RMS) input capability and full L3 DSP control; compared with AK4537VN, it trades 24-bit resolution and higher SNR for 3 V operation, integrated DC filtering, and lower system-level component count.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage supported by the UDA1344TS/N2,518 ADC?
The UDA1344TS/N2,518 ADC supports up to 2 V (RMS) input voltage when a 12 kΩ series resistor is used with the 0 dB gain setting. Without the resistor, maximum input is 1 V (RMS) at 6 dB gain or 0.5 V (RMS) at 0 dB gain. This dual-range capability allows flexible interfacing with microphones, line-level sources, and preamplifiers while maintaining signal integrity within the 3.0 V supply constraint.
Does the UDA1344TS/N2,518 support I²S interface mode?
Yes, the UDA1344TS/N2,518 fully supports I²S-bus format with word lengths up to 20 bits in both L3 and static-pin control modes. In static-pin mode, I²S is selected using MP1=LOW and MP5=HIGH; in L3 mode, it is configured via the IF[2:0] register bits (000). The device operates as a slave, requiring external BCK and WS signals synchronized to its SYSCLK input.
How does the L3 interface differ from static-pin control on the UDA1344TS/N2,518?
L3 interface (MC1=LOW, MC2=LOW) enables full digital sound processing-volume, bass/treble, de-emphasis, mute, and DC cancellation-via serial commands. Static-pin mode (MC1=HIGH, MC2=HIGH) restricts control to system clock selection, data format, mute/de-emphasis, and ADC gain/power-down using discrete logic levels on MP1–MP5. Only L3 mode provides access to the complete DSP feature set of the UDA1344TS/N2,518.
What is the power consumption of the UDA1344TS/N2,518 in playback-only mode?
The UDA1344TS/N2,518 consumes 42 mW typical in playback-only mode (DAC active, ADC powered down) at 3.0 V supply and 44.1 kHz sampling rate. This value is derived from the sum of IDDA(DAC) (5.0 mA typ), IDDO (5.0 mA typ), and IDDD (7.5 mA typ), confirming suitability for extended runtime in battery-powered audio devices.
Is the UDA1344TS/N2,518 pin-compatible with any other NXP audio CODECs?
Yes, the UDA1344TS/N2,518 is explicitly stated as pin- and function-compatible with the UDA1340M in L3 mode. Both share identical SSOP28 pinout, electrical characteristics, and register-level control behavior-enabling drop-in replacement where enhanced features like 2 V (RMS) input and expanded DSP are not required. This compatibility simplifies migration paths for legacy designs.
