The SABRE³² Reference audio DAC series is the world's highest performance 32-bit audio DAC solution targeted for consumer applications such as Blu-ray player, audio pre-amplifier, A/V receiver and professional applications such as recording systems, mixer consoles and digital audio workstations. With ESS patented 32-bit Hyperstream™ DAC architecture and Time Domain Jitter Eliminator, the SABRE³² Reference Stereo DAC delivers an unprecedented DNR of up to 135dB and THD+N of -120dB, the industry's highest performance level that will satisfy the most demanding audio enthusiasts.

The SABRE Audio DAC Series is the world's first 8-channel audio DAC solution to bring true professional digital audio to the mass consumer home entertainment market, setting a new standard for high quality audio performance in a cost effective, compact, easy to use form factor for today's most demanding digital audio applications.

The ES9016 SABRE³² Ultra DAC is the latest addition to the world's highest performance and critically acclaimed SABRE32 DAC family. With ESS patented 32-bit HyperstreamTM DAC architecture and Time Domain Jitter Eliminator, the ES9016 SABRE³² Ultra DAC delivers spectacular music with an unsurpassed sound stage, with up to 128dB dynamic range and 0.0003% (-110dB) total harmonic distortion, and free from clock jitter common in digital audio systems.

The SABRE^TM DAC with integrated ground-centered 2V_rms driver operates from a single 3.3V power supply to deliver pop-free audio with 112dB of dynamic range, the highest performance of its class. With bill of materials reduced to just a few passive components externally, audiophile sound and quality are now accessible and affordable to any consumer audio products.

The SABRE³² Reference ADC is a two-channel 32-bit analog-to-digital (A/D) converter targeted for consumer applications such as audio pre-amplifier, audio processor, A/V receiver and professional audio applications such as recording systems, mixer consoles and digital audio workstations.

Using the ESS proprietary 32-bit Hyperstream™ ADC architecture, the SABRE³² Reference ADC delivers an unprecedented DNR of 127dB and THD+N of −120dB in mono mode (or DNR of 124dB and THD+N of −118dB in stereo mode), a performance level that will satisfy the most demanding audio enthusiasts.

For highest performance, the SABRE³² Reference ADC implements a 32-bit programmable decimation filter and outputs the full 32-bit resolution in I2S mode, or 24-bit resolution in SPDIF mode. A digital high-pass filter is available for DC removal. Additionally, a programmable 8-band biquad filter is implemented for RIAA or custom equalization. The SABRE³² Reference ADC supports synchronous SPDIF or I2S master/slave output, or asynchronous I2S slave output relative to the master clock for up to 384kHz sample rate and consumes less than 200mW.
