ES9218P

Analog Reinvented ES9218P 32-bit Stereo Low Power DAC with Headphone Amplifier, Analog Volume Control, and Output Switch The ES9218P is a high-performance 32-bit, 2-channel audio SABRE HiFi® D/A converter with QUAD DAC™ technology, headphone amplifier, analog volume control, and output switch designed for audiophile-grade portable power sensitive applications such as digital music players, consumer applications such as USB DACs and A/V receivers, as well as professional applications such as mixer consoles and digital audio workstations. Using critically acclaimed QUAD DAC™ technology, patented 32-bit HyperStream® DAC architecture and Time Domain Jitter Eliminator, the ES9218P delivers up to 121dB DNR and –114dB THD+N in HiFi mode, a performance level that will satisfy the most demanding audio enthusiasts. The ES9218P’s integrated SABRE DAC supports up to 32-bit 384kHz PCM and DSD256 audio data via master/slave I2S/DSD interface in synchronous and asynchronous sampling modes. A user-programmable FIR filter with 8 presets is included for customizable sound signature. Additionally, the ES9218P’s integrated SABRE Headphone Amp supports up to 2.0Vrms output with analog gain control to reduce output noise at real-life listening levels. An integrated output switch allows an auxiliary source such as voice to bypass the ES9218P for lowest power consumption in non-HiFi mode. Residual distortion from suboptimal PCB components and layout can be minimized using ES9218P’s unique THD comp...
