Performance improve advice:
A,If you had some skill on DIY and had the ES9018 built in DAC.
You can try the below advice.
Both RJ45 and HDMI I2S transmit models, the most ES9018 had not
request the MCLK signal, you can cut the MCLK wire in the source ,
connect to GND or chassis if it is connect to GND.
Please Note:
1,After this modify, the I2S source only can working with ES9018
built in DACs and the design don't request on the MCLK.
2,The DIY always had the risk , we can't warranty any people can
finished the modify succeed and safe on the unit.
B, For compatibility with other brands,the default data line up is : DATA, BCLK, WCK, MCLK, GND.
You can try the new line up but it is may not compatibility with
other brands :
DATA, WCK, BCLK, MCLK, GND .
You just want to exchange the WCK and BCLK wires in the input module
output side and the output module input side. |

Pin 3 : SDATA +
Pin 4 : SCLK +
Pin 5 : GND
Pin 6 : SCLK -
Pin 7 : LRCK -
Pin 8 : GND
Pin 9 : LRCK +
Pin 10: MCLK +
Pin 11: GND
Pin 12: MCLK -
Pin 13: NC
Pin 14: NC
Pin 15: NC
Pin 16: NC
Pin 17: GND
Pin 18: NC
Pin 19: Auto on control (Available in the input kit .Non use in the
output kit, but can custom order.)
The Pins define of the SDATA,SCLK, LRCK and MCLK can be exchange by
users.
The I2S output kit can power supply by +3.3V (max 3.5V). Power spend
around 25MA . The output kit had setting always ON .
The I2S input kit must power supply by +3.3V (max 3.5V), power spend around
15MA.
The one wire on the kit connect to the power supply, the 5 wires
connect to GND ,SDATA ,SCLK, LRCK and MCLK .
The kits up to 32 bit 384KHz support but depend on the HDMI cable
quality , the HDMI cable shorter is better .
Please note: Don't hot push / pull of
the I2S cable. Any time must power off the units then push or pull
the I2S cable.
The kit had full test before shipping, we don't offer the warranty
because it can easy shatter by users wrong operate .
If customer want to replace the USB32 in audio-gd's DAC, please
inform while place the order. |
