The MAX981CSA is an integrated circuit (IC) component designed for amplification of audio signals. It is manufactured by Maxim Integrated and offers a range of key features that make it ideal for various audio applications.
The MAX981CSA is a low-cost, low-power, monolithic microphone preamplifier with a built-in gain control function. It is specifically designed to provide high-quality audio amplification for microphones used in various devices such as smartphones, tablets, portable audio players, and various other consumer electronics.
One of the key features of the MAX981CSA is its ability to provide a high level of amplification while maintaining a low level of noise and distortion. It offers a wide dynamic range, allowing it to capture both soft and loud sounds accurately. This makes it suitable for applications where the microphone needs to capture a wide range of audio signals.
The built-in gain control function of the MAX981CSA allows for easy adjustment of the amplification level. It provides automatic gain control (AGC), which adjusts the amplification based on the input level. This is beneficial in situations where the microphone needs to handle varying audio levels, ensuring consistent output volume.
The MAX981CSA operates from a single power supply, making it convenient to integrate into a wide range of electronic devices. It supports a supply voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V, making it compatible with various power sources commonly found in portable devices
