SAN JOSE, Calif. – Mar 19th, 2012 – Nuvoton Technology Corporation today introduced a 2Vrms output line driver- NAU8220. The NAU8220 is a high quality analog input and output line driver. This device is ideal for the consumer digital audio applications that need 2Vrms stereo outputs, such as set-top boxes, digital LCD/LED TVs, A/V receivers and media DVD / Blu-ray players.

The NAU8220 includes pop/click elimination features and high immunity to power supply and other system noise. This enables fast and efficient system integration while minimizing external component costs.

The NAU8220 features an integrated charge pump enabling true ground referenced inputs/ outputs and full 5.6Vpp output levels, while operating from only a single 3.3V positive supply voltage. Moreover, the true ground referenced outputs eliminate the output line driving coupling capacitors. This enables fast and efficient system integration while minimizing external component costs.
