PRODUCTION DATA.
The PCM512x devices include a two-channel DAC, with single-ended outputs. The full-scale output voltage is 2.1Vrms with ground center output. A dc-coupled load is supported in addition to an ac-coupled load, if the load resistance conforms to the specification. The PCM512x DAC outputs on the OUTL and OUTR terminals have market-leading low out-of-band noise, which offer up to 20dB lower out-of-band noise compared with existing DAC technology.
Most applications require an external low-pass RC filter (470Ω + 2.2nF) to provide sufficient out-of-band noise rejection. This RC filter provides the added advantage of improved protection against ESD damage.
