  • ADC ADDC1 - page 17

    ADC1 Instruction Manual Page 17 UltraLock™ … What is It? Accurate 24-bit audio conversion requires a very low-jitter conversi on clock. Jitter can very easily turn a 24-bit converter into a 16- bit converter (or worse). There is no point in buying a 24-bit convert er if clock jitter has not been adequately addressed. Jitter is present on every ...

  • ADC ADDC1 - page 18

    ADC1 Instruction Manual Page 18 How does conversion clock jitter degrade converter performance? Problem #1 Jitter phase modulates th e audio signal. This modulation creates sidebands (unwanted tones) above and below every tone in the audio signal. Worse yet, these sidebands are often widely separated from the to nes in the original signal. Jitter-i ...
