Six-channel master volume control in a through-hole DIP
The Analog Devices SSM2160P is a six-channel master volume control IC designed for multi-channel audio systems. It accepts a serial control interface to set the gain of all six channels simultaneously, making it a clean fit for analog mixing consoles, multi-zone audio distribution, and professional audio preamplifiers where a single control voltage or digital word adjusts the entire output bus. The part operates from a split supply of ±4 V to ±15 V, or a single 8 V to 15 V rail, and is specified over the industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C — suitable for installed sound equipment in outdoor or factory-floor environments.
Lifecycle and sourcing posture
That means it remains a current-production part — no LTB risk for new designs or ongoing BOM lines. RoHS compliance is listed as non-compliant, so verify your assembly's exemption or lead-free policy if you are running a fully RoHS line.
