DN9652

DN9652 provides a multichannel interface between two third party digital audio networks and point-to-point interfaces. The third party interfaces operate in separate clock domains and are connected by a bidirectional asynchronous sample rate converter (ASRC). This unique KLARK TEKNIK technology allows the interfacing of up to 64 bidirectional channels between the two independently clocked domains, which can also operate at different sample rates. Currently supporting MADI and Audinate Dante via the KLARK TEKNIK KT-MADI And KT-DANTE64 network modules, DN9652 is future-proofed in the evolving world of digital audio networking technology by being able to support new and emerging protocols via its industry-standard expansion slot, which is compatible with the Cirrus CM-1* format.

Asynchronous Sample Rate Converter

The multichannel bidirectional Asynchronous Sample Rate Converter (ASRC) allows the two third party domains to function independently, however in instances where the two networks need to be synchronised, the ASRC features a bypass facility so that one third party network domains can be directly clocked from the other.

Additionally, when the two domains are operating independently, a clock failure or loss of synchronisation in one domain will not necessarily affect the operation of the other. Very often in dual-redundant systems it is desirable to propagate a clock failure in one domain across to the other, so that the failure can be recognised and switchover to the redundant network can be initiated. DN9652 features a user-configurable bidirectional output clock inhibit feature that will stop the output clock if the incoming clock synchronisation fails.

Flexible Synchronisation

DN9652 supports 24 bit audio operation at 48 kHz and 96 kHz independently in both third party network domains. Word clock input and output connections plus a black burst horizontal video sync input are provided on BNC connectors, with the latter supporting PAL, SECAM and NTSC formats in standard definition and high definition 720P, 1080P and 1080i formats. The word clock output can be derived from either third party network clock domain or the word clock input.

DN9652 features a precision “AES Grade 1” reference temperature-compensated clock oscillator with 1 part-per-million (ppm) stability. This highly accurate clock source can be used as the reference clock for digital audio systems, providing a very defined sound image free of jitter and other digital clocking error artefacts.

Each third party network domain can be synchronised to the external network clock (with or without word clock synchronisation), the network module onboard clock, the word clock input or the black burst video sync input, as well as optionally slaving to the other network clock domain if the ASRC is bypassed.
