Maxim Alternatives for the ST Microelectronics STw5094A
ST Microelectronics STw5094A
Benefits of the MAX9853 over the STw5094A:
Two dedicated line inputs vs. none on the STW5094A
Higher power headphone amplifiers (50mW vs. 17mW on the STW5094A)
DirectDrive headphone amplifiers eliminate DC blocking capacitors without applying a DC bias to the headphone jack vs. the capless headphone amplifiers in the STW5094A that use a third amplifier to bias up the headphone jack.
Integrated voice band filtering
More flexible digital audio interface (master and slave mode support vs. the slave only operation of the STW5094A)
Stereo ADC vs. the STW5094A's mono ADC
Higher ADC SNR (88dB vs. 75dB for the STW5094A)
Higher headphone amplifier PSRR (95dB vs. 30dB on the STW5094A)
Benefits of the STw5094A over the MAX9853:
The STW5094A has lower supply current (15mW vs. 27mW)
The STW5094A supports a wider range of MCLK frequencies
