DAC AD1862: Almost THT, I2S input, NOS, R-2R

As far as I've heard, the only digital filter worth anything is the PMD200. But it is not made anymore and the prices are adequate for the available number of pieces. So we're sticking with multibit NOS DACs, until further notice. :ROFLMAO:
You heard wrong, both PMD100 and PMD200 are excellent filters, normally the PMD200 is even more difficult to obtain.
I will soon get another PMD100 for about 130€, so let it sit in the drawer until I need it. :D
 
Yesterday I was soldered the diode and voltage is 4,2V. The cooler is hot only at the center (where transistor is installed). I didn't buy another cooler yet.
Maybe I'll do the same things with my another dac - add 5V on Jlsound but there is only one PSU-1 (no place for another one).
One more thing - I was told to add more np0 for feeding dac (opamps and chip). Is that necessary? Opamps 4-8(7) feeding leg and GND.

Acrylic from Rubicon is a little better than Panasonic, but a little bit more expensive.

But I can't guess where to use it in DACs.
These film capacitors are very useful where microfarad (>0.1-0.2uF up to few uF) range required for low (20-30v) voltages and small sizes. For smaller values NPO ceramic (up to 0.1-0.2uF) is better in the signal patrh and X5/X7 at the power.

My vote is for rubicon MU 👍🏻 But they are expensive at mouser and digi.

But, np0 are amazing little buggers too. 0603 for decouple, yes please 😁
