Anyone know how the "programmable THD compensation" works?

Does the ESS reference voltage chip to work with this new ESS chip is avaliable as well ?

 

[johnmarkp]

Yes, the chip is available. $4 each, but the minimum order is 25.

maybe Worth a GB of both chips if any one is ablle to draw a dead quiet pcb for it ?

I2S inputt, current outputt for i/v conversion if avaliable ? All SMD with a Crystek -957 for Clock.

$4.- for a Sabre ES9038PRO chip? I'm guessing about the same price as for the last top-dog of the Sabre line, which was about $65.-

I am highly interested in this voltage regulator. It's probably the first regulator aiming for audio.

Why? This regulator so special?

Audio is a mixture of analogue and digital electronics, nothing special, there are many decent regulators that are good enough for audio as well as even more critical electronics....
The ESS regulator is designed to provide a simpler solution for using their DACs, it replaces numerous discrete components and separate LDOs around the DAC device, very useful if you are assembling many hundreds to thousands of boards cost wise.
