The CDB8416 is designed to allow easy evaluation of
the CS8416 and CS8406. The board is designed for
easy connection to an Audio Precision or other digital au-
dio test system.
Input and output data may be set for either balanced us-
ing the XLR connectors or unbalanced using the coax or

ration easy in Software Mode. The software
communicates through the PC’s parallel port to control

modes of the CS8416 and CS8406 may be tested.
