Introduction
Overview
The ADC-9532 is a broadcast quality Analog Audio to AES/EBU Converter
used to convert two (2) analog audio channels to an AES/EBU signal. The
ADC-9532 accepts one stereo (A, B) analog audio pair and provides three (3)
copies of the AES/EBU signal. The conversion from analog to digital is
performed with 20bit or 24bit precision. The ADC-9532 supports sampling rates
of 32kHz and 48kHz (with a video or AES reference or free running) and
44.1kHz (with a valid AES reference signal only). The ADC-9532 has been
designed for use in 75ohm coaxial (SMPTE 276M or AES-3id) systems but can
be easily used in balanced (twisted pair) systems with the use of a 75ohm to
110ohm converter, such as the GearLite AES-9523 or AES-9525 AES
converters.
The two analog audio signals are input through the 12-pin audio terminal block.
The ADC-9532 uses a very high quality anti-aliasing filter on its inputs to
ensure that the converted signal has very low noise and distortion artifacts. The
A to D conversion process is performed by a state of the art 256X over-sampling
Delta Sigma Modulator ADC. Three (3) copies of the unbalanced AES/EBU
signal are provided on the BNC connectors on the rear of the unit.
The ADC-9532 has the ability to phase and frequency lock to an external AES
DARS reference (per AES11-1997) or to frequency lock to an external analog
PAL or NTSC video reference. An LED on the front panel indicates the
presence of an external reference signal. If there is a loss of the reference signal,
the unit will switch to an internal reference. The unit will automatically switch
back to the selected reference when the external reference returns.
The ADC-9532 has an extremely stable internal clock and can be operated
without an external reference signal.
A coarse input attenuator switch (20dB or 24dB) and fine input attenuator
potentiometers (+/-3dB, one for each channel) are provided to precisely match
your facility's house reference audio levels. The ADC-9532 can accommodate
any maximum input level in the +17dBu to +27dBu range.
The ADC-9532 is designed and manufactured to meet the highest quality
broadcast industry standards. It is an ideal and cost effective solution for
converting analog audio into an AES/EBU signal.
