ESS Technology Releases New 2 Channel High Performance Audio ES9826 SABRE ADC With Integrated PGA

ESS Technology released its new 2 channel ES9826 SABRE Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC). The new device combines effectively two integrated ADC circuits which use ESS’ patented Hyperstream IV ADC architecture, and a front-end PGA. Together, the new SABRE ADC device delivers high quality audio with a DNR of +123dB and a THD+N of -105dB, setting another industry benchmark for the company in terms of audio performance, features, and cost effectiveness.

ESS Technology, the audio semiconductor company from San Jose, California, announced its new 2 channel ES9821 SABRE Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) with a typical DNR of +120dB and -112dB of THD+N. This is a device that ESS says sets a new industry benchmark for audio performance, features, and cost effectiveness, and that will quickly will find its way in both new studio equipment and mastering systems, as well as the latest high-end designs.

ESS Technology announced their newest addition to the Sabre audio series of DACs, the ES9033Q, a 32-bit, 2-channel DAC with built-in 2Vrms, ground-centered line drivers, resulting in an optimum system performance with no need for external amplifiers. The new Sabre ES9033Q DAC simplifies stereo line level setups with best-in-class performance in one small package, offering D/A conversion with a DNR of 122+dB A-weighted with DRE, and -108dB of THD+N per channel.
