IC40 D.A.C
Digital to
Analogue Converter (DAC)
The
new Rega IC40 is a high performance 24 bit
Digital to Analogue
Converter. It employs a novel 64 level sigma
delta D.A.C design which provides optimised signal-to-noise
performance and clock jitter. The Rega IC40 consists of a three stage
linear phase FIR filter followed by a 16x over-sampled linear
interpolator, that significantly reduces high frequency images when
compared to the more usual sample and hold implementation. With the 64
level sigma delta DAC the magnitude of errors induced by clock jitter
are significantly reduced and this is further enhanced by switched
capacitor implementation of the low pass filter, which is also
insensitive to clock jitter. |
