Savitech is a Taiwanese technology company that specializes in analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits. It is best known for developing the Low Latency High Definition Audio Codec (LHDC), a Bluetooth audio codec aimed at delivering high-resolution audio over wireless connections.[1][2]
History
Savitech was founded in 2010 and is headquartered in Taipei, Taiwan. The company has focused on audio processing and data conversion.
Technologies
LHDC
LHDC (Low Latency High Definition Codec) is a proprietary Bluetooth audio codec developed by Savitech. It is designed to enable high-resolution audio transmission over Bluetooth, offering bitrates up to 900 kbit/s, 24-bit depth, and sample rates up to 96 kHz. LHDC is certified by the Japan Audio Society (JAS) as a Hi-Res Audio Wireless codec.
Unlike standard codecs like SBC or AAC, LHDC delivers significantly higher fidelity, making it suitable for audiophiles and high-end audio products.[promotion?] It has been adopted by a variety of manufacturers and is officially supported in certain versions of Android, such as devices running Android 10 and later via the Android Open Source Project (AOSP).[3][4]
LLAC
Savitech also developed LLAC (Low Latency Audio Codec), also known as LHDC-LL. This variant emphasizes ultra-low latency while maintaining decent audio quality, targeting real-time use cases such as mobile gaming and video playback.[promotion?] LLAC supports bitrates of 400 and 600 kbit/s with end-to-end latency as low as 30 milliseconds.
Industry alliances
Savitech is a founding member of the Hi-Res Wireless Audio (HWA) Union, an industry group promoting high-resolution wireless audio. Other notable members of the alliance include Huawei, Sennheiser, and Audio-Technica.
Products
In addition to LHDC and LLAC, Savitech designs USB audio chips and DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter) solutions[clarify] for various consumer and professional audio applications.
