Dialog Semiconductor Plc (NASDAQ: DLGS, FWB: DLG) has launched a new evaluation board for its recently introduced DA9034 IC that enables designers to quickly configure designs based on Marvell PXA3xx application processors. The new DA9034-EVB provides a complete audio and power management solution for Marvell PXA3xx-based products and is driven using a standard Windows-based graphical user interface (GUI) via a PC’s USB interface allowing engineers to significantly shorten development times.
With the DA9034-EVB, developers can evaluate the technical performance of the DA9034 highly integrated audio and power management IC. The DA9034-EVB can also be used in conjunction with a PXA3xx processor system to develop power management and audio control routines and verify complete designs. The board provides a reference PCB layout and uses components typically found in cellular handset, portable media player and PDA designs which are optimized for low build height of less, than 1.2mm, and minimum PCB area.
Dialog Semiconductor’s DA9034 IC integrates more than 50 mixed signal functions on a single chip, providing regulated supplies for the PXA3xx processor, memory and peripheral devices as well as supporting lithium ion battery charging, touch screen interface, LED driving, together with voice and HiFi audio codecs. Dialog is the first company, with the DA9034, to support Dynamic Voltage Management for both switching and linear regulators. This technique along with Dialog’s ultra efficient Smart Mirror
