To the Analog Devices Technical Support Team,
Hello, I am the Lead Product Strategist at a tech startup based in South Korea.
We are currently developing a premium wireless headphone targeting mass production in 2026.
This is a commercial project aiming for the global high-end audio market.
[Requirement]
We are looking to integrate a high-performance ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) solution from Analog Devices.
We have attempted to reach out through local distribution channels, but we require direct technical guidance from HQ due to the advanced nature of our application.
We specifically request:
Chip Recommendation: The most suitable ADI ANC solution for high-fidelity premium headphones.
Technical Resources: Access to datasheets and reference designs to verify hardware compatibility.
Support: Guidance on software/firmware tuning for optimization.
[Next Steps] We are prepared to proceed with purchasing EVBs and samples immediately. Could you please direct us to the appropriate contact point? We are ready to provide our official company details and discuss volume forecasts under an NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement).
Best regards,

Hello SeungHun,
Thanks for reaching out. Someone should be responding to you more directly once I get your contact info.
If you could send a Private Message to me with your contact info and also please send a friend request so I could respond if needed.
We have several solutions so it would be good to have a more detailed discussion on your needs.
It seems like your time schedule is quick if you plan to go into production in 2026.
Thanks!

Hi Dave,
I just attempted to send you a Private Message with my contact details as requested. However, I encountered an error notification during the process, so I am not sure if it went through successfully.
Could you please check if you received it? If not, please let me know, and I will try resending it.
Thanks,Seunghun
Hello Seunghun,
I am laughing at myself here. No need to be mad, just laugh and move on.
I saw this post so I went into my private messages and Yes, I did get your private message. I started to respond and had the entire response written but I must have gotten a phone call or Teams call and never hit send!!!
The response was still just sitting there waiting to be sent!!
I just sent it a min before writing this.

Haha, no worries at all! That happens to the best of us.
Thanks to you, I’ve connected with the ADI technical team.
We’ve already signed the NDA and everything is moving forward smoothly.
I genuinely appreciate you making this opportunity possible!
