Overview
The Digital to Analog Stereo Audio Converter (DAC) is an easy way to convert coaxial or optical digital audio signals into analog stereo audio. Accepting digital audio signals from either coaxial or optical source devices, the unit can be switched to determine which digital input signal is to be converted into an analog stereo audio signal. It is the converter of choice for those wishing to convert coaxial/optical audio signals to stereo audio in a small form factor.
Description
The Cypress DCT-3 Digital Coaxial/Toslink Audio to RCA Analogue Audio Converter provides a straightforward way to convert digital stereo audio into analogue audio for equipment that uses RCA inputs. The unit accepts digital audio through either a coaxial S/PDIF connection or a Toslink optical S/PDIF connection, allowing it to work with compatible digital audio source equipment.
The DCT-3 is designed for uncompressed 2-channel LPCM stereo audio. The selected digital input is converted through the integrated Digital to Analogue Converter and digital interpolator filter before being delivered through the left and right RCA analogue outputs. This makes the converter suitable for integrating compatible digital sources with analogue stereo amplifiers and other audio equipment.
With support for 24-bit S/PDIF audio and input sampling rates from 32kHz to 96kHz, the DCT-3 is suited to standard digital stereo audio applications. Its compact enclosure also makes it practical where installation space is limited. Buy this Cypress DCT-3 online for a convenient way to connect compatible digital stereo audio sources to RCA-based audio equipment.
