Description

Z

DAC

The MP-ACD311 is an ultra high performance 24 bit direct conversion audio DAC that pro­vides unparalleled performance. The four-quadrant DAC architecture ensures the best possible perfor­mance for small and large signals without averaging (like a Delta-sigma data converter.) A fast conver­sion rate, low noise and distortion at all signal levels delivers the finest digital audio possible with a
minimum of external components.

Offered with an internal buffer (MP-ACD311B) or without (MP-ACD311U.)
