Notes:

1.

Ratio of output level with 1kHz full scale input, to the output level with all zeros into the digital input, measured ‘A’ weighted

over a 20Hz to 20kHz bandwidth.

2.

All performance measurements done with 20kHz low pass filter, and where noted an A-weight filter. Failure to use such a

filter will result in higher THD+N and lower SNR and Dynamic Range readings than are found in the Electrical

Characteristics. The low pass filter removes out of band noise; although it is not audible it may affect dynamic specification

values.

3.

Power down occurs 1.5

µs after MCLK stops.

TERMINOLOGY

1.

Signal-to-noise ratio (dB) - SNR is a measure of the difference in level between the full scale output and the output with no

signal applied. (No Auto-zero or Automute function is employed in achieving these results).

2.

Dynamic range (dB) - DNR is a measure of the difference between the highest and lowest portions of a signal. Normally a

THD+N measurement at 60dB below full scale. The measured signal is then corrected by adding the 60dB to it. (e.g.

THD+N @ -60dB= -32dB, DR= 92dB).

3.

THD+N (dB) - THD+N is a ratio, of the rms values, of (Noise + Distortion)/Signal.

4.

Stop band attenuation (dB) - Is the degree to which the frequency spectrum is attenuated (outside audio band).

5.

Channel Separation (dB) - Also known as Cross-Talk. This is a measure of the amount one channel is isolated from the

other. Normally measured by sending a full scale signal down one channel and measuring the other.
