PCM1748E/2K - 24-Bit Stereo Audio DAC | Texas Instruments
Référence : PCM1748E/2K ✓ ActifPCM1748E/2K Présentation
An audio DAC is a semiconductor that converts digital PCM audio data into analog voltage signals suitable for headphone, line, amplifier, mixer, or recording-system input stages. Within the signal-chain hierarchy, the PCM1748E/2K is an audio DAC, which is a type of digital-to-analog converter and data-conversion IC. Its stereo architecture supports simultaneous left- and right-channel playback while reducing the number of separate converter packages required on a compact audio board.
The principal features include 24-bit conversion resolution, a 96 kHz sampling rate, 100 dB typical dynamic range for the PCM1748E grade, enhanced multilevel delta-sigma architecture, fourth-order noise shaping, and 8-level amplitude quantization. Its 3-wire serial digital interface accepts digital audio data and clock signals, while the analog outputs provide a straightforward path to downstream amplification. The converter is designed for consumer and professional audio equipment where compactness, dynamic range, and clock-jitter performance are important.
The internal fourth-order noise-shaping architecture moves quantization noise away from the most audible low-frequency region, while multilevel quantization reduces demands on the digital-to-analog conversion filters. This architecture supports accurate reproduction of music and speech signals at relatively low analog output amplitude. Clock jitter tolerance is improved compared with simpler delta-sigma converters, although system-level performance still depends on clean supplies, stable clocking, correct digital timing, and properly implemented output filtering.
Typical uses include powered speakers, compact USB audio interfaces, headphone amplifier boards, digital mixing consoles, multimedia equipment, and home-audio playback modules. PCM1748E/2K is particularly suitable where two analog output channels are required but a six-channel or more complex multichannel DAC would add unnecessary cost and board area. A companion codec or digital interface must supply valid PCM data, while the DAC converts that data into left and right analog outputs.
For layout, place the analog output components and their return paths close to the device, maintain a quiet analog ground reference, and separate digital clock and data routing from sensitive output nodes. Use stable low-noise supply decoupling and follow the pin-description table in the manufacturer datasheet when assigning PCB tracks. PCB footprint and pin assignment should be checked against the exact SSOP-16 ordering suffix before release.
This product data combines the manufacturer architecture description with a side-by-side family comparison, practical layout guidance, and drop-in replacement analysis. It is intended to help engineers identify the correct Texas Instruments orderable variant, assess its conversion performance, and integrate it into a repeatable audio-system design.

USB Audio Interface
PCM1748E/2K is suitable for a compact USB-to-analog audio interface when the USB controller or codec supplies compatible PCM data and clocking. The DAC's 3-wire serial interface supports integrated left and right channels, while its 24-bit, 96 kHz conversion provides suitable fidelity for high-resolution playback. Clock quality remains critical, so route the master clock and serial data away from analog output components and provide a low-noise local supply. Its 100 dB typical dynamic range can form a clean endpoint for headphone or line-level stages, and the compact SSOP-16 footprint simplifies multi-output desktop and portable audio products.

Headphone Amplifier Board
PCM1748E/2K can provide the digital-to-analog stage for a stereo headphone-amplifier board. Two voltage outputs allow the left and right channels to feed a balanced dual-headphone amplifier, while 100 dB typical dynamic range supports a clean input signal for the analog stage. Place output resistors or the documented filter network close to the DAC pins, maintain a quiet analog return path, and keep switching supplies and digital clock traces away from the sensitive nodes. The SSOP-16 package supports compact portable equipment, while the converter's enhanced multilevel delta-sigma architecture provides good performance without requiring separate mono DAC packages.

Digital Mixing Console
PCM1748E/2K is appropriate for monitoring, auxiliary, or compact stereo output sections in a digital mixing console. Its stereo channels support simultaneous left and right conversion, and the 24-bit, 96 kHz format accommodates professional digital audio workflows. The converter's fourth-order noise shaping moves quantization noise away from the most sensitive low-frequency region, while 8-level amplitude quantization improves tolerance to clock variations. Use clean references and isolated supply routing for each analog section, and follow the manufacturer output-filter recommendations before driving line-level circuitry. The small SSOP-16 package helps conserve board area in densely populated console electronics.

The 100 dB typical dynamic range provides useful headroom for typical listening environments, while 24-bit resolution and 96 kHz sampling support high-quality source material. The 3-wire serial interface reduces the required data connections compared with a parallel converter. Keep the DAC's analog supply decoupled near the device, preserve a continuous ground return beneath analog outputs, and isolate the module's switching regulators from the stereo outputs. Its small SSOP-16 package is useful in compact desktop speakers, display audio modules, and combined amplifier boards.

Notes de conception
Keep the PCM1748E/2K analog outputs and their documented output-filter components close to the device, while routing serial data and clock signals away from those nodes. Maintain a continuous analog ground reference beneath the converter and output network, and connect digital and analog return currents carefully at the system ground point. This separation reduces coupling from switching power converters, processor traces, and high-current amplifier outputs into the stereo analog path.
Use a quiet 4.5 V to 5 V analog supply for the converter and place the required local decoupling capacitors at the supply and ground pins. The manufacturer performance characterization uses VCC = 5 V for the PCM1748E dynamic-range value, so the operating point should match that condition when reproducing the specified performance. Avoid routing the analog supply through digital switching-current paths, and verify the supply remains within range under audio bursts and processor load transients.
Provide stable, low-jitter clocking to the serial interface and maintain controlled timing between the system clock and audio data. The enhanced multilevel delta-sigma architecture improves clock-jitter tolerance, but it does not remove the need for a clean reference and correct data synchronization. Short digital routes, solid return paths, and isolation from high-current outputs are appropriate measures for preserving channel separation, dynamic range, and low distortion.
Do not substitute a different SSOP-16 device solely because the package dimensions match. Confirm every pin name, analog and digital supply arrangement, output definition, and recommended filter connection against the manufacturer datasheet. The /2K ordering suffix denotes the manufacturer packaging configuration and should be maintained when procurement documentation and the PCB bill of materials are prepared.
