New Higher Power MERUS MA5332MS Class D Audio Amplifier Multichip Module Now Available

Unlocking the potential of its best-in-class power MOSFET technology, Infineon Technologies introduced the MERUS 2-channel, analog input, class D audio amplifier multichip module (MCM) MA5332MS, adding a higher power and smaller footprint device to its MERUS technology family. It is a powerful upgrade to its predecessor, offering the same or even higher output power than monolithic alternatives, without a heatsink and 50 percent less footprint.

The Standards We Need: Do Audio Technologies Matter in the Smart Home?

The Standards We Need: Do Audio Technologies Matter in the Smart Home?

Matter is an industry-unifying standard for the Smart Home that promises reliable, secure connectivity — a seal of approval that devices will work seamlessly together. But... Do audio technologies matter in the Smart Home? The audio industry needs to get involved in this convergence and interoperability effort. After all, we can already tell a speaker to play a song - thanks to voice recognition technology, AI, and wireless networks - but we still don’t have a transparent wireless audio standard to stream audio to speakers or headphones because basically audio remains restricted by specifications that were not written with audio in mind.
