Frequently Asked Questions
What maximum audio resolution and sample rate do these DACs support?
They accept 16-, 24-, and 32-bit audio data with supported sample rates up to 384kHz.
What are the performance differences between PCM5100, PCM5101, and PCM5102?
The PCM5102 offers the best specs: 112dB Dynamic Range and 112dB SNR. The PCM5101 is 106dB/106dB, and the PCM5100 is 100dB/100dB.
How can I reduce DC blocking noise and EMI using these DACs?
The PCM510x provides 2.1V ground centered RMS output, which helps eliminate DC blocking capacitance and reduces EMI in downstream circuits.
Is any external clock source needed for system timing?
No, the integrated PLL utilizes a BCK reference to generate SCK internally, allowing up to 512 max multiples.
