Cirrus Logic Boosts Audio Experience With Next-Gen Timing Devices

Cirrus Logic Inc. CRUS recently introduced its new timing devices, the CS2500, CS2501 and CS2600. Specifically engineered to meet the evolving demands of automotive and professional audio applications, these devices are poised to transform how audio systems synchronize and perform. These cutting-edge solutions are currently available for sampling for selected customers only. Full-scale production is slated for May 2025, providing a clear timeline for adoption and integration.With a baseband jitter of less than 50ps, these modern devices generate clean clock signals that lay the foundation for superior audio quality. This innovation allows downstream audio-data converters and digital audio systems to achieve their maximum potential while maintaining perfect synchronization across the system. Recognizing the importance of compatibility, CRUS has designed these devices as drop-in replacements for its earlier versions (CS2000, CS2100, CS2200 and CS2300). This ensures an effortless transition for existing customers while adding advanced features that simplify design and enhance performance.The state-of-the-art timing devices offer several other innovative features. Embedded with the advanced hardware mode feature, the new series streamlines integration, making it easier for designers to adopt and implement. The glitchless clock transitioning capability ensures a continuous and uninterrupted clock signal, even when switching between references, preventing disruptions or glitches. The phase sync loop helps to keep multiple audio signals or devices in perfect alignment, ensuring precise synchronization across complex audio networks. Also, the automatic rate detection feature improves user convenience.With the launch of the timing solutions, Cirrus Logic continues to push the boundaries of audio technology. By addressing the diverse needs of automotive and professional audio markets, these versatile timing devices are set to drive the next wave of audio innovation with precision and ease.Cirrus Logic, Inc.
