32-bit DAC offers low latency

Ideal for live sound applications, the 32-bit AK4390 stereo D/A converter features a latency of seven samples (7/fs). The IC supports sampling rates from 30 to 216 kHz, fully differential analog outputs, a digital attenuator, de-emphasis filters, soft mute, and zero-detect functions.

A minimum-phase FIR 32-bit short delay filter is able to accurately reproduce the original recorded sound with an impulse response without pre-echo. Housed in a 30-pin VSOP package, the AK4390 also features a dynamic range of 120 dB, THD+N of –103 dB, and single supply voltahe of 5 V. (From $3.44 ea/5,000 — available now.)
