Description of π MINIBOSS I2S DAC with Exceptionally Low Jitter Clock | PCM5122 | 32Bit / 384kHz | 2 I2S Clocks for Raspberry Pi Zero
Our miniBOSS DAC is also unique, because of the way we have implemented the power design. First, we separate the power on 3 channels and filter it: one for the digital side, the second for analog and third for the clocks themselves. Then we take the filtered power and use a second filter (LDOs) to further quiet the noise. In addition, we use Japanese oscillators from NDK for a very low jitter clock - almost as good as the famous Crystek. Finally, on the analog stage we are using a film capacitor and some ceramics for a quiet DC to feed the TI IC. Not happy with this, we have added a supercapacitor for an extra kick when analog stage is asking (like deep bass). Please understand. this is not an artificial bass booster. this is the bass as it was recorded. The only difference, enough electrons are present on our DAC (bass needs power) to be finally heard. Compatibility: RPI Zero/W , Volt+.
