DPLL

  • DPLL 1-9, the smaller the number, the better the performance against clock jitter. This DPLL setting is a special function of ESS series products. It can adjust the bandwidth of the DPLL digital phase-locked loop circuit inside the chip so that the chip achieves a balance between anti-clock jitter and input tolerance.

Its function:

  • When the clock stability of the input signal is good, this value can be reduced, so that the clock performance of the system is better;
  • When the clock stability of the input signal is not good, the sound may be interrupted. Increasing this value can avoid sound interruption! Especially when using TV as a signal source!

USB

  • USB2.0 (select USB2.0, WIN system needs to install driver, support DSD)
  • USB1.1
