For sale I have a Gustard U16 Digital Interface unit, in absolutely perfect condition. A really nice improvement to your digital chain.GUSTARD U16 ES8620 PCM32bit/768K DSD512 DOP And Native DSD Digital Interface Product Description:
Adopting the latest USB audio interface solution ES8620 from ESS, USA
Supports up to PCM 32bit/768KHz and DSD512, and supports both DoP and Native DSD.
ESS's USB interface chip design is a completely optimized architecture for high-quality digital audio signal processing. It is not a general-purpose chip with USB digital audio interface code, so it has an immediate impact on sound quality improvement; A 128MB SDRAM is used as the system buffer and digital audio processing FIFO. Most of the space is used for internal scheduling of the USB interface master IC, and the redundant space is reserved as much as possible to ensure that other business logic operations other than the USB audio interface function in the main control IC do not interfere with the digital audio processing flow.
For optimal digital audio performance, digital audio processing FIFO capacity is reduced to a minimum to ensure minimum latency and jitter performance; In order to ensure the highest quality digital audio signal and the lowest clock jitter performance, the machine uses up to three FPGAs to implement USB audio interface clock management and external 10M clock part of the audio clock frequency synthesizer, all using independent power supply to avoid FPGA Internal wiring interferes with each other; In the USB audio interface part, an FPGA is used to implement the USB audio interface master IC running in the Slave mode. That is, the USB interface main control IC receives the audio clock signal generated by the clock management FPGA and outputs only the digital audio data signal, thereby minimizing the digital signal interference introduced by the USB transmission link; The audio clock synthesizing circuit of the external 10M clock part uses two FPGA main clock frequency synthesizers corresponding to the 44.1KHz and 48KHz fundamental frequencies respectively, which avoids the crosstalk of the internal wiring of the FPGA on the one hand, and also drains the FPGA chip on the other hand. The related resources, the frequency accuracy and jitter performance of the final synthesized audio main clock signal have reached the limit performance level of the current design; The local audio clock source uses a dual femtosecond clock. This unit uses two US ACCUSILICON AS318-B ultra low phase noise crystals as the local audio clock source, RMS jitter as low as 88 femtoseconds (10Hz-1MHz); built-in audio dedicated toroidal transformer.
