GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AKD4951AEN-B is an evaluation board for the AK4951AEN 24bit CODEC with built-in PLL and
MIC/HP/SPK Amplifier. The AKD4951AEN-B has the interface with AKM’s A/D evaluation boards. Therefore,
it’s easy to evaluate the AK4951AEN. The AKD4951AEN-B also has the digital audio interface and can achieve
the interface with digital audio systems via opt-connector.
