24/96 AD Converter 2376
• 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 instruc-
tions beginning on page 5. If you are uncertain, please 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 parallel.
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 quartz 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 interfe-
rence.
An extremely effective voltage stabilizing circuit ensures
that the converter continuously receives sufficient and
stable voltage – an important prerequisite for clean, trans-
parent 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 effec-
tively reduce interference and ensure optimal separation
between analog and digital components.
