BYD Selects Analog Devices’ Audio Bus and Processor Technologies

Analog Devices, Inc. announced that BYD Co., Ltd, a Chinese automotive manufacturer, has selected ADI’s Automotive Audio Bus (A 2 B ® ) and SHARC ® digital signal processor (DSP) to build more energy efficient and eco-friendly vehicle platforms. 

Reducing the weight, cost, and design complexity of vehicles is a major challenge faced by automotive manufacturers today. BYD has adopted ADI’s A 2 B technology due to its ability to
distribute audio and control data together with clock and power over a single, unshielded twisted-pair wire – reducing cabling weight by up to 75 percent, which improves automotive fuel
efficiency and reduces total system costs. BYD also selected Analog Devices’ SHARC processor to achieve more cost-effective audio systems with enhanced sound quality.
