Qualcomm technologies announced some advanced technologies in audio enhancements in its voice and music developer conference. Qualcomm’s new products include next-generation amplifier chipsets for headphones and speakers, as well as new audio system-on-chip (SoCs) platforms. Additionally, Qualcomm is introducing a smart audio platform with multi-room technology, which paves way for the development of smart speakers.
CSRA68100
Qualcomm is introducing the CSRA68100, a high-performance single-chip Bluetooth audio flash-programmable platform for premium wireless speakers and headphones. It offers four times the digital signal processing power of its predecessor, along with a 32-bit dedicated developer application processor. The platform includes a next generation Audio Development Kit (ADK) ADK6.0 which is designed to provide developers with a suite of Bluetooth SIG qualified applications and profiles, alongside a multi-processor software development environment and audio DSP framework. This technology is to simplify and enhance the development experience and to create rich end-user experiences.
QCC3XXX family
QCC3XXX is a new family of entry-level, flash-programmable audio SoC platforms at competitive price points for Bluetooth headsets and speakers. These devices support a rich set of features, use cases and customization, supporting OEMs in their development of unique products for market segments which have typically been restricted to fixed function ROM devices. The QCC3XXX family is designed to provide consumers with access to advanced technologies such as Qualcomm aptXTM audio and Qualcomm cVcTM noise cancellation technology and enhanced Qualcomm TrueWirelessTM Stereo at some of the most affordable price points.
CSRA6620
Qualcomm’s next generation audio amplifier technology, the CSRA6620 SoC, offers high-quality amplifier performance while integrating it into a single chip. It is a highly integrated platform which includes a DDFA controller with eight channel inputs, two channel outputs, microcontroller and configurable audio processor, which gives best-in-class amplifier performance in a lower complexity, more cost effective way than its previous technologies.
Qualcomm Technologies also introduced it’s WHS9420 and WHS9410 single chip USB audio SoC platforms specifically for USB-C connected audio devices. As latest smartphones roll out without 3.5mm headphone jack, a USB-c connector is an option for people who are using wired headsets and speakers, which provides better charging and also audio enhancements.
The WHS9420 is the premium level solution with integrated ANC supports a superior quality digital audio consumer experience, with up to 192kHz/24-bit audio support over the USB connection and very high-quality DAC output.
