A/D - D/A Converter, ADAT Optical I/O
In this application, the 8824 operates as a
stand-alone eight-channel 24-bit A/D and
D/A converter. There is no host computer
required for audio I/O. Refer to figures at
right.
The DIP switch settings shown are for opera-
tion in Local mode. Refer to page 7 for a
detailed discussion of the 8824’s dip switch
settings.
The screen shot of the configuration applica-
tion shows the selections made to make this
application scenario operate in Remote mode.
Note that it is the DIP switch that makes the
various source, output, and sync selections. The
configuration program is not needed.
Analog input signals enter the 8824 via the
eight analog inputs. After conversion to digital
form, the 8824 performs format conversion
and delivers the audio to the AES/EBU out-
puts. (In this example, the A/D inputs also
drive the optical outputs.)
On the return trip, the 8824 receives digital
audio via the AES/EBU connectors. These
signals are then converted to analog form and
delivered via the eight analog outputs.
