6020 driving single-ended inputs – Ensemble Designs 6020 Four Channel 24-bit Audio DAC User Manual
Page 4

In the application shown below, a 6020 module is used to convert two AES audio outputs
of a digital VTR to analog in order to feed an analog audio routing switcher.
The 6020 has balanced transformerless outputs. This application shows how to drive
external equipment with single-ended (unbalanced) inputs. Note that the minus (-) side of
the balanced output stage is left floating; it should not be connected to ground. In addition
to its four balanced line level outputs, the 6020 has four unbalanced outputs. These
outputs, available on BNC connectors, are suitable for driving monitor amplifiers or other
similar equipment as shown in the first application on the preceding page.
