7720ADC-A4

Evertz 7720ADC-A4 Quad Analog Audio-to-Dual-AES Converter

This 24-bit, analog-to-digital audio converter provides digital conversion of four balanced analog audio channels and provides two unbalanced (or balanced from the 7720ADC-A4-B) AES/EBU channels out.

The sampling clock may free run at 48KHz or may be locked to either a DARS (Digital Audio Reference Signal) reference or composite video reference. Level control is provided via a card edge toggle switch. The input gain level can be read out from a card edge display for convenience. The full scale digital signal can be calibrated to accommodate peak levels ranging from 8dBu to 27dBu with 0.5dB resolution.

The audio ADC features a card edge VU meter for quick confidence monitoring. Four separate level indicators are provided via bargraphs for quick validation of audio program material.
