Prior to going to college, if you were to ask me to explain what 'At Resonance' was, I would have told you it's what accumulates at the bottom of your bong.

AKM makes a lot of ASIC's for audio applications.  I have digital Behringer gear with AKM IC's in it.  This will be widespread across the industry.

Fortunately, TI (Burr-Brown), Cirrus Logic, etc also make competing parts, but redesign doesn't happen overnight.
