Store the manual in a safe easily accessible place for future reference Overview Emil Scholz ESD series digital to analog converters are based on legendary classical multi bit converters produced by Burr Brown Analog Devices These are widely known and recognized as reference of DA audio converter chips PCM63P K AD1862N J and PCM1704U K Emil Scholz ESD digital to analog converter series includes three basic devices ESD 6300 ESD 1862 and ESD 1704 All the devices are functionally same and have same main board and software Two additional module boards can be installed on the main board to modify the device type The first module allows adding ADAT Type I II interface support option and can be installed either during assembling of the device or during its upgrade by the customer or with our assistance The second module is a daughter board with DA converters and necessary components When a definite type of DA daughter board is installed software automatically defines its type and makes all necessary modifications in the device performance Now three versions of the daughter boards are available and there are three models of the converters accordingly based on Burr Brown PCM63P K 20 bit Analog Devices AD1862N J 20 bit and Burr Brown PCM1704U K 24 bit As the DAC modules are replaceable you can upgrade your 20 bit version into an advanced 24 bit model on the basis of PCM1704 any time at your discretion Features e Home and stu
