Introducing the Aeris DAC

Based upon an asynchronous buffer, voltage controlled crystal oscillators and a 24-bit D/A converter – under the precise control of a FPGA running proprietary algorithms – the Aeris DAC delivers bit perfect conversion and reduces total jitter to less than 10 picoseconds RMS from any input.

Isolated Synchronous Error Correction System. Based upon an asynchronous buffer, voltage controlled crystal oscillators, and a 24 bit D/A converter – all under the precise control of an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) running proprietary algorithms.

Bit perfect conversion with total jitter output noise of less than 10 picoseconds RMS from any input – USB, TOSLINK, and SPDIF.

Main power supply is isolated inside an external machined aluminum chassis. Eleven precision high-speed regulators provide low impedance and low noise “point of load” DC current to all analogue and digital circuits.

Left and right channel audio output circuits, digital processing, and D/A conversion circuits are isolated within individual milled aluminum pockets resulting in exceptional EMI shielding, and thermal stabilization.

Wide range level control of outputs permit direct connection to power amplifiers.

The USB interface requires no additional drivers to install or maintain/update.

The USB interface is plug-n-play with all operating systems, including PC, Mac, or Linux.

Precision-machined chassis milled from a solid block of aircraft grade 6061-T6 aluminum, provides exceptional thermal stability, RFI/EMI shielding, and resonance control.

Multi-layer circuit boards provide extremely low impedance ground and power distribution for remarkably low digital noise contamination.

Extensive use of Lead (Pb)-free, low temperature coefficient, active and passive surface-mount components results in significantly smaller loop areas, reduced circuit capacitance and inductance, and introduces less noise than conventional leaded components.

Transformer balanced XLR line outputs provide outstanding output common-mode noise rejection, eliminate potential ground loops, and ensure compatibility with other equipment.

Rhodium / Teflon Cardas output connectors for both balanced and unbalanced outputs preserve maximum audio signal integrity. Remote Control Allows remote control of volume, mute, standby, and input selection.
