The Introduction to AK4490EQ
The AK4490EQ is a new generation Premium 32-bit 2ch DAC that incorporates innovative technology to provide industry-leading low distortion and broad dynamic range. The AK4490EQ includes a newly invented switching capacitor filter called the "OSR Doubler," which allows it to support a wide spectrum of signals.
The AK4490EQ also has five types of 32-bit digital filters, allowing for simple and flexible sound tuning across a wide range of applications. The AK4490EQ supports PCM data up to 768 kHz and DSD data up to 11.2MHz, making it perfect for high-resolution audio source playback in network audio, USB-DACs, and car audio systems.

- TypeParameter
- Factory Lead Time12 Weeks
- Mounting Type
The "Mounting Type" in electronic components refers to the method used to attach or connect a component to a circuit board or other substrate, such as through-hole, surface-mount, or panel mount.
Surface Mount - Package / Case
refers to the protective housing that encases an electronic component, providing mechanical support, electrical connections, and thermal management.
48-LQFP - Supplier Device Package
The parameter "Supplier Device Package" in electronic components refers to the physical packaging or housing of the component as provided by the supplier. It specifies the form factor, dimensions, and layout of the component, which are crucial for compatibility and integration into electronic circuits and systems. The supplier device package information typically includes details such as the package type (e.g., DIP, SOP, QFN), number of pins, pitch, and overall size, allowing engineers and designers to select the appropriate component for their specific application requirements. Understanding the supplier device package is essential for proper component selection, placement, and soldering during the manufacturing process to ensure optimal performance and reliability of the electronic system.
48-LQFP (7x7) - Operating Temperature
The operating temperature is the range of ambient temperature within which a power supply, or any other electrical equipment, operate in. This ranges from a minimum operating temperature, to a peak or maximum operating temperature, outside which, the power supply may fail.
-40°C~85°C - Packaging
Semiconductor package is a carrier / shell used to contain and cover one or more semiconductor components or integrated circuits. The material of the shell can be metal, plastic, glass or ceramic.
Tape & Reel (TR) - Published2014
- Part Status
Parts can have many statuses as they progress through the configuration, analysis, review, and approval stages.
Active - Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL)
Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) is a standardized rating that indicates the susceptibility of electronic components, particularly semiconductors, to moisture-induced damage during storage and the soldering process, defining the allowable exposure time to ambient conditions before they require special handling or baking to prevent failures
3 (168 Hours) - TypeDAC, Audio
- Voltage - Supply
Voltage - Supply refers to the range of voltage levels that an electronic component or circuit is designed to operate with. It indicates the minimum and maximum supply voltage that can be applied for the device to function properly. Providing supply voltages outside this range can lead to malfunction, damage, or reduced performance. This parameter is critical for ensuring compatibility between different components in a circuit.
3V~3.6V 4.75V~7.2V - Base Part Number
The "Base Part Number" (BPN) in electronic components serves a similar purpose to the "Base Product Number." It refers to the primary identifier for a component that captures the essential characteristics shared by a group of similar components. The BPN provides a fundamental way to reference a family or series of components without specifying all the variations and specific details.
AK4490 - Number of Channels2
- Data Interface
A Data Interface in EDQ is a template of a set of attributes representing a given entity, used to create processes that read from, or write to, interfaces rather than directly from or to sources or targets of data.
DSD, I2S - Sampling Rate (Per Second)
The sampling rate (per second) in electronic components refers to the frequency at which an analog signal is measured or sampled to convert it into a digital signal. It is typically expressed in Hertz (Hz) and indicates how many times per second the analog signal is sampled. A higher sampling rate allows for better representation of the original signal, capturing more detail and reducing distortion during the conversion process. In audio applications, for example, common sampling rates include 44.1 kHz for CD-quality audio and 48 kHz for video production.
768k - Voltage Supply Source
A voltage source is a two-terminal device which can maintain a fixed voltage. An ideal voltage source can maintain the fixed voltage independent of the load resistance or the output current. However, a real-world voltage source cannot supply unlimited current. A voltage source is the dual of a current source.
Analog Digital - Resolution (Bits)
Resolution (Bits) in electronic components refers to the number of bits used to represent the analog signal in digital form. It indicates the level of detail or precision with which the analog signal can be converted into digital data. A higher resolution means more bits are used, allowing for finer distinctions to be made between different signal levels. For example, an 8-bit resolution can represent 256 different levels, while a 16-bit resolution can represent 65,536 levels. In general, a higher resolution leads to better accuracy and fidelity in the digital representation of the original analog signal.
32 b - RoHS Status
RoHS means “Restriction of Certain Hazardous Substances” in the “Hazardous Substances Directive” in electrical and electronic equipment.
ROHS3 Compliant
