Nobody is using a part like that for any speaker output in a cell phone, let alone a laptop. Modern speaker drivers are closer to 8-12W (even in cell phones) so the wimpy 400mW of that device is worthless. It’s also in a package completely unsuitable for a cell phone, and doesn’t have any of the integrated jack detection that is needed in modern 3.5mm audio codecs.
- atoav 2y agoWhat kind of part would be used? Just out of curiosity. And you didn't weigh in on my point about reasons for headphone jacks vanishing.
- Kirby64 2y agoSomething like this if we’re sticking with TI parts: https://www.ti.com/product/TAS2574 https://www.ti.com/product/TAS2574 Also, there can be many reasons for removing the headphone jack. I personally think the theory that the primary motivator was to drive additional sales for headphones is silly. It’s purely a cost play and the manufacturers decision to say that Bluetooth headphones are finally good enough.
