UAC 3552A
PRELIMINARY DATA SHEET
2.1.5.2. Analog Low-pass
The output of the DAC is filterted by an analog low-
pass filter with a cut-off frequency of approximately
1.4 MHz. This filter removes the high-frequency com-
ponents of the noise-shaping signal.
2.1.5.3. Postfilter Op Amps
This block contains the active components for the
optional analog postfilters. It is recommended to use a
second-order filter (see Section 4. “Applications” on
page 26) in order to attenuate the out-of-band noise
caused by the noise shaper The op amps and all I/O-
pins for this block are shown in Fig. 2–2.
2.1.5.4. Input Mixer
This block is used to mix the auxiliary inputs and the
signals coming from the DAC. This allows to use an
UAC 3552A-based USB speaker in a non-USB envi-
ronment, like WIN 3.11 or other operating systems. On
the other hand, it allows to connect additional analog
sources, like CD-player or Walkman even while the
speaker is connected to the USB. The input mixer is
hardware-controlled by the AUXEN pin.

This allows to use a jack that switches the AUXEN to
low when an analog source is plugged in, according to
the application note Section 4. “Applications” on page
26. The DAC-signal is permanently connected to the
mixer because the DAC is extremely quiet if no USB
audio is applied.
The AUXEN pin also keeps the UAC 3552A from
entering the low-power mode when an analog source
is connected. Please note that in this mode, the
UAC 3552A is not USB-compliant. If the USB is not
connected the GPIO pins work as an USB-indepen-
dent volume control (see Table 2–2). BassBoost is not
supported in this mode.
