NuForce uDAC3 USB Digital Audio Converter
INTRODUCTION
The NuForce μDAC is a high-performance USB Digital Audio Converter (DAC) that connects your personal
computer’s audio to your home stereo, desktop sound system, or headphones. The quality and versatility of
the
μDAC’s performance belies its diminutive size. With its extensive power supply, filtering capabilities and
charge-pump circuit as a foundation, the μDAC accurately processes incoming data via a USB audio receiver. A
D/A converter stage then translates the data into an analog signal with a robust 2.0-Vrms-output capability. The
NuForce
μDAC’s performance equals or exceeds that of a great many audiophile CD players. The unit’s exemplary
flexibility –– analog RCA, digital coaxial, and high-performance headphone outputs –– is bound to satisfy the
needs of the most critical music lover.
