Can HiFiMAN’s new flagship desktop DAC/Amplifier improve over its predecessor? We’ll find out soon. HIFIMAN today announced the EF1000DAC ($15,000), a new reference desktop DAC/amplifier featuring the ...

Combining PWM with a small R-2R ladder improves both. It reduces PWM ripple significantly and increases the DAC’s resolution. In this Design Idea, an eight-resistor array and three output pins ...

The brand new Cayin RU6 R-2R Dongle DAC/Headphone Amplifier looks to be a formidable challenger in a very competitive category. Just in time for Black Friday, Cayin have unveiled a rather unique ...

Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) is a device used to convert the input signal that is in digital form into an output signal in the analog form (voltage). The resulting DAC output voltage is ...

The first step in selecting and using high-precision D/A converters is to consider the DAC architecture that is best for a given application. Several architectures are available, including oversampled ...

Sometimes it seems as though digital designers get all of the attention. In all of the excitement surrounding "gigaFLOPS," "22 nm," and such, there's still one crumb of comfort for we non-digital ...

Making sound with digital logic usually calls for a Digital to Analog converter. Building one can be very simple, and the sound quality out of an R-2R Ladder is actually pretty good. In the last ...

With modern microcontrollers, the process of interfacing with the analogue world is easy. Simply enable the on-board DAC or ADC, and talk to the world. If you’ve ever done this with a slightly older ...
