It appears to be a single chip that takes a digital input stream and delivers 900 mW into a speaker or other load., eliminating the usual preamp and DAC chips. That is, most power amps now take an analog input whether Class A, AB, D, or whatever. This is a power amp that takes a digital input directly. The DAC may not be a traditional DAC since it is class D; it could convert the incoming digital data directly to a bitstream driving the class-D outputs (via a control circuit) without ever seeing a traditional DAC. Not a lot of power, but they are probably targeting portable players.
