GENERAL DESCRIPTION 

The AKD4344-A is an evaluation board for the AK4344, 24bit and 96kHz DAC with DIT for portable and 
home audio systems. The AKD4344-A has the interface with AKM’s A/D converter evaluation boards and 
the interface with digital audio systems via optical connector. Therefore, it is easy to evaluate the 
AK4344.
