The PCM1702 is a precision 20-bit digital-to-analog converter with ultra-low distortion (–96dB typ with a full scale output). Incorporated into the PCM1702 is an advanced sign magnitude architecture that elimi- nates unwanted glitches and other nonlinearities around bipolar zero. The PCM1702 also features a very low noise (120dB typ SNR: A-weighted method) and fast settling current output (200ns typ, 1.2mA step) which is capable of 16X oversampling rates. Applications include very low distortion frequency synthesis and high-end consumer and professional digital audio applications.
