AES/EBU Connection with Splitter Cable 7 AES/EBU Connection with Splitter Cable This example shows how both an AD824 and DA824 can be connected to a digital audio device with a single AES/EBU interface by using MY8-AE I/O cards and a custom AES/EBU splitter cable. Pin wiring details for the AES/EBU interface are supplied with each MY8-AE I/O card. The digital audio device is the wordclock master, with the AD824 receiving its wordclock via a BNC connection, the DA824, via its slot input.

8 Chapter 5—Wordclocks 5 Wordclocks About Wordclocks For correct operation and digital-to-analog processing, it is essential that the DA824 is wordclock locked to the digital audio device transmitting the digital audio signals. Nor- mally, the DA824 locks to a wordclock signal derived from the SLOT digital audio inputs, but when a usable wordclock signal is present at the WORD CLOCK IN con- nector, this is used instead. The LOCK indicator lights up when the DA824 is locked to the wordclock so

Wordclock Termination 9 Wordclock Termination For correct and reliable operation, wordclock signals distributed via BNC cables must be terminated correctly. Termination is typically applied at the last device, although it depends on the distribution method being used. The DA824’s WORD CLOCK 75Ω ON/OFF switch allows the DA824 to be connected in a variety of ways. The following examples show three ways in which wordclock signals can be distributed and how ter- mination should be applied in eac
