EVM WARNINGS AND RESTRICTIONS
It is important to operate this EVM within the input voltage range of "15 V and the output
voltage range of "15 V.
Exceeding the specified input range may cause unexpected operation and/or irreversible
damage to the EVM. If there are questions concerning the input range, please contact a TI
field representative prior to connecting the input power.
Applying loads outside of the specified output range may result in unintended operation and/or
possible permanent damage to the EVM. Please consult the EVM User’s Guide prior to
connecting any load to the EVM output. If there is uncertainty as to the load specification,
please contact a TI field representative.
During normal operation, some circuit components may have case temperatures greater than
55°C. The EVM is designed to operate properly with certain components above 55°C as long
as the input and output ranges are maintained. These components include but are not limited
to linear regulators, switching transistors, pass transistors, and current sense resistors. These
types of devices can be identified using the EVM schematic located in the EVM User’s Guide.
When placing measurement probes near these devices during operation, please be aware
that these devices may be very warm to the touch.

Preface
This document provides a description and instructions for use of an EVM
board for the PCM1792, DSD1792, PCM1794, and DSD1794 stereo audio
DACs.
This equipment is intended for use in a laboratory test environment only. It
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and has not been
tested for compliance with the limits of computing devices pursuant to subpart
J of part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection
against radio frequency interference. Operation of this equipment in other
environments may cause interference with radio communications, in which

may be required to correct this interference.

The DEM-PCM/DSD1792/1794 is an evaluation module for the PCM1792
(DEM-PCM1792), DSD1792 (DEM-DSD1792), PCM1794 (DEM-PCM1794)
and DSD1794 (DEM-DSD1794) stereo audio DACs. For the PCM devices,
this EVM bo ard accepts 24-bit linear PCM data at sampling rates up to f
kHz via the S/PDIF interface. For the non-S/PDIF interface, at a sampling rate
= 192 kHz, 24-bit PCM data or 64-fS, 1-bit DSD data can be interfaced
of f
S
directly at a connector on the board.
The DEM-PCM/DSD1792/1794 uses an NE5534 op amp for I/V conversion
in the analog output circuit to obtain excellent audio performance. There are
three analog signal output functions onboard as 2-V rms single-ended (RCA),
4.5-V rms single-ended (RCA), and 9-V rms balanced (XLR).
The DEM-PCM/DSD1792/1794 is operated by a ±15-V analog power supply,
5-V DAC power supply and 5-V digital power supply. A single 5-V power supply
can be used to power the DAC and digital circuitry by setting a jumper
connection, but to obtain the specified audio performance, use of separate
power supplies is recommend.

Typical audio performance is as follows:
THD+N = 0.0004%
Dynamic range (EIAJ) = 128 dB (4 V rms)
Dynamic range (EIAJ) = 125 dB (2 V rms)
- Connect the ±15-V analog power supply to TM5 (−VA), TM6 (AGND), an d
TM7 (+VA). Power supply current is typically ±40 mA, maximum ±70 mA.
- Connect the 5-V DAC power supply to TM4 (+VCC) and TM3 (AGND). A
3.3-V regulator IC is connected to provide a 3.3-V power supply for the
DAC device. Power supply current is typically 50 mA, maximum 60 mA (at

- Connect the 5-V digital power supply at TM2 (+VDD) and TM1 (DGND).
A 3.3-V regulator IC is connected to provide a 3.3-V logic supply to the
digital section. Power supply current is typically 70 mA, max +120 mA.
- Jumper JP-P is for the selection of separate 5-V +VCC and +VDD power
supplies, or a common 5-V power supply.

1.4Audio Output Connection
The audio output signal can be obtained on either the RCA stereo pin jacks
or the XLR connector. The audio output signal level and format are selected
by jumper, using the jumper connections listed in Section 1.5.5.
- Connect RCA cables at either PJ-3 and PJ-5 (2 V rms, L ch/R ch) or PJ-2
and PJ-4 (4.5 V rms L ch/R ch) for stereo mode operation.
- CN-M (XLR connector) is a 9-V rms mono output for the mono operation
mode of the PCM/DSD1792.

1.5.1DAI Receiver Data Format
Switches SW001 through SW003 are used to set the DAI receiver output audio
interface format as shown in Table 1−1. The initial (default) format of the
PCM1792/DSD1792 is I

Switch SW004 is a normally-open, momentary-contact pushbutton switch
used to reset the digital audio receiver when necessary.
1.5.3DAI Interface Selection
The demonstration board also supports direct interfacing to audio decoders
and signal processors via connector CN004 (unpopulated). SCLK, BCK,
LRCK, and DATA are available and buffered by U005. Switch SW005 is used
to select between the digital audio receiver and connector CN004 as the
source of the audio interface. Table 1−2 shows the available switch settings.

1.5.4PCM Audio/DSD Interface
Connector CN001 allows selection of the audio data interface connection by
jumper settings. In the case of a linear PCM audio data interface between the
DAI receiver and the PCM/DSD1792/1794 DAC, system clock, BCK, LRCK,
DATA and GND should be jumper connected. The MSEL jumper connection
is for the selection of SPI/I
a DSD audio data interface between the DSD decoder LSI and the DSD1792
DAC, DSDL, DSDR, DBCK and system clock should be connected at right side
pins of CN001. The MSEL jumper must be connected (to GND) for SPI mode
operation of the PCM1792.
