These DACs have been designed with audiophiles in mind and set the standard for an unparalleled audio experience. This level of sound quality extends to the ES9311 LDO regulator, which is the industry's first LDO designed for high-performance audio systems.
Each SABRE DAC comes with multiple built-in preset reconstruction filters, as well as customizable settings that can be configured by a system builder to suit the specific needs of a particular design. The DACs also feature ESS's patented 32-bit HyperStream™ DAC technology.
SABRE amplifiers are designed to work seamlessly with all ESS products and consistently deliver excellent signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and outstanding total harmonic distortion (THD) levels. The SABRE9601 is a high-performance, standalone headphone driver targeted at audiophile-grade portable applications such as smartphones, tablets, and media players. The SABRE9602 combines a high-performance headphone driver with an output switch to create a low-noise, high-gain amplifier that delivers outstanding performance right to the listener's ears.
The ES9311 LDO regulator is the industry's first low-noise, low-dropout regulator designed for high-performance audio systems. Optimized for high-resolution audio, the regulator is based on an architecture containing series-voltage and shunt-voltage elements, eliminating the need for output decoupling capacitors. The ES9311 provides the very low-noise outputs required to drive the reference inputs of audio converters and offers significant added value for audio system designers.
