SLAS763C August 2012 – October 2018 PCM5121 , PCM5122
PRODUCTION DATA.
The diagram in Figure 61 shows the recommended output filter for the PCM512x. The new PCM512x next-generation current segment architecture offers excellent out-of-band noise, making a traditional 20-kHz low pass filter a thing of the past.
The RC settings below offer a –3-dB filter point at 153 kHz (approximately), giving the DAC the ability to reproduce virtually all frequencies through to it’s maximum sampling rate of 384 kHz. A NP0/C0G type capacitor is strongly recommended for the shunt capacitor for lowest distortion.
