Safety instructions
Product features
• Please refer to the safety instructions in the manual of the unit in which you will be installing the converter.
• When installing the converter, carefully follow the instruc­tions beginning on page 5. If you are uncertain, plea se ask a qualified technician or your SPL dealer for assistance.
The 24/96 AD Converter module is an optional digital output for compatible SPL devices* with a plug-and-play design for easy installation. It offers an S/P-DIF output with both coaxial and optical connectors in par allel.
The heart of the module is a 24-bit converter by AKM® with a variable sample rate of up to 96 kHz. The sample rate can be switched between 44.1, 48, 88.2 and 96 kHz. Highly accurate quart z oscillators ensure a clean, low-jitter master clock.
The converter can be synced to other digital devices via the SYNC input. If a valid signal is present, the converter automatically conforms to the sample rate received at the SYNC input. A yellow LED illuminates to display a valid sync signal. The internal oscillators are automatically disabled when an external clock signal is present to prevent interfe­rence.
An extremely effective voltage stabilizing circuit ensures that the converter continuously receives sufficient and stable voltage – an important prerequisite for clean, trans­parent audio.
The compact design of the input stage guarantees the shortest possible signal path to the converter. Oversized grounding surfaces on both sides of the circuit board effec­tively reduce interference and ensure optimal separation between analog and digital components.
