NATIONAL 3D ENHANCEMENT
The LM4946 features a stereo headphone, 3D audio en-
hancement effect that widens the perceived soundstage from
a stereo audio signal. The 3D audio enhancement creates a
perceived spatial effect optimized for stereo headphone lis-
tening. The LM4946 can be programmed for a “narrow” or
“wide” soundstage perception. The narrow soundstage has a
more focused approaching sound direction, while the wide
soundstage has a spatial, theater-like effect. Within each of
these two modes, four discrete levels of 3D effect that can be
programmed: low, medium, high, and maximum (Table 2, 3),
each level with an ever increasing aural effect, respectively.
The difference between each level is 3dB.
The external capacitors, shown in Figure 6, are required to
enable the 3D effect. The value of the capacitors set the cutoff
frequency of the 3D effect, as shown by Equations 1 and 2.
Note that the internal 20kΩ resistor is nominal.
