Audio Data Rate Calculator

Formula

To calculate the Audio Data Rate (\(ADR\)):

\[ ADR = BD \times SF \]

Where:

\(ADR\) is the Audio Data Rate (bits per second)
\(BD\) is the bit depth (bits)
\(SF\) is the sampling frequency (Hz)

What is Audio Data Rate?

Audio Data Rate is the amount of data processed per second in an audio signal. It is calculated by multiplying the bit depth by the sampling frequency.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Bit Depth (\(BD\)) = 16 bits
Sampling Frequency (\(SF\)) = 44,100 Hz

Using the formula:

\[ ADR = 16 \times 44100 = 705,600 \text{ bits per second} \]

The audio data rate is 705,600 bits per second.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Bit Depth (\(BD\)) = 24 bits
Sampling Frequency (\(SF\)) = 96,000 Hz

Using the formula:

\[ ADR = 24 \times 96000 = 2,304,000 \text{ bits per second} \]

The audio data rate is 2,304,000 bits per second.
