Also included are SigmaTel's 3D stereo enhancement (SS3D) and an extra true line-level out for headphones or speaker amplifiers. The STAC9704/07 communicatesvia the five wire AC Link to any digital component of AC'97 providing flexibility in the audio system design. Packaged in a small AC'97 compliant 48-pin TQFP, the STAC9704/07 can be placed on the motherboard, daughter boards, add-on cards, PCMCIA cards, or outside the main chassis such as in a speaker. The 9707 is identical to the 9704 except that the 9707 is tested at AVdd = DVdd = 3.3V.
