TECHNOLOGY
Data Directed Scrambling: We use the term Data Directed Scrambling (D2S) to describe a new oversampling technology which delivers professional-quality audio to mass-market consumer appliances and multimedia PCs.
The AD1819 uses D2S to play .WAV, MIDI, AC-3. and PCM audio streams with better than 90dB signal-to-noise ratio. Using D2S the device is able to maintain a spectrally pure, "white" noise floor which is more pleasing to the human ear. D2 S also enhances the AD1819's immunity to noise sources on the PC motherboard and within the PC enclosure. Conventional sigma delta converters in PC sound codecs use 1-bit D/A converters (ie: switches), combined with gross oversampling and high-order noise shapers to achieve 80dB+ fidelity. One-bit structures offer inherent linearity, so they circumvent distortion or noise artifacts that would arise due to component mismatches in the D/A block. High-order modulators spectrally shape their quantization noise, placing it at frequencies beyond the auditory response of the human ear. After filtering, you get CD-quality, 16-bit performance from a 1-bit D/A.
One-bit designs have their drawbacks. First, the mathematics of high-order noise shapers give rise to spurious "idle tones" which are objectionable to the human ear. "Colored" noise sources can make a 16-bit sound codec sound worse than a device with lower SNR, yet dominated by a white noise floor. Secondly, 1-bit designs are sensitive to system noise or jitter on the master clock. Sampling precision in time determines the overall quality of the D/A conversion process.
Data Directed Scrambling uses multibit D/A structures instead of the conventional 1-bit technique to circumvent historical drawbacks of sigma delta designs. The D2S process actually shapes the spectral characteristics of noise and distortion caused by component mismatches in the D/A conversion process. Along with the quantization noise, these artifacts are pushed to frequencies beyond the auditory response of the human ear, then filtered.
The AD1819 uses a 4-bit D/A structure and D2S to enhance noise immunity on motherboards and in PC enclosures and suppress idle tones below the quantization noise floor of the device. The result is an audibly pleasing, professional-quality rendering of PC sound tracks from sources including DVD movies, Dolby Digital AC-3 tracks and studio-quality MIDI music synthesizers.
