Waves Audio MX3000DS
The MX3000DS is the second generation, mixed-signal ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) that includes a MaxxBass optimized DSP, sigma delta ADC, DAC and high quality analog circuits. It provides a low cost, stand-alone solution for implementing MaxxBass. It is ideal for extending bass frequency response in consumer products such as portable loudspeakers, LCD TVs, mini-compo, car audio, subwoofers and other audio products where size and cost constraints limit the available bass frequency response.FEATURES
● Second Generation ASIC for patented MaxxBass® algorithm● Proven to extend perceived bass frequency response by up to 11/2 octaves
● Analog stereo input and output with minimal external components
● Supports I2C host and stand-alone (no microcontroller host) applications
● Software commands for - Intensity - Clock Divider - Bypass - Subwoofer Low Pass Filter - Powerdown - Power-on Output Delay - Snap reduction - Noise Gate
● Improved SNR with higher 2.0Vpp input dynamic range and noise gate
● Controls for setting MaxxBass Intensity without a microcontroller host
● Reset pin voltage monitor for robust reset behavior
● Low cost 16-pin 150mil SOIC RoHS compliant green packaging
● Low power consumption with 3.3 volt operation MX3000DS
DESCRIPTION
MaxxBass is a bass frequency extension technology that extends the perceived bass frequency response below the physical low frequency cut off in an audio system. It is based upon psychoacoustic effects, which Waves has patented in the USA and other countries worldwide.
