  • Page 1 Model 6010 Four Channel 20-Bit Audio ADC Data Pack Revision 3.1 SW v1.0.0 This data pack provides detailed installation, configuration and operation information for the Model 6010 Four Channel 20-bit Audio Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) module as part of the Avenue Signal Integration System. The module information in this data pack is organized into the following sections: •...
  • Page 2: Module Overview

    Model 6010 Four Channel 20-bit Audio ADC MODULE OVERVIEW The 6010 Four Channel 20-bit Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) converts four channels of analog audio to two AES digital audio streams. Analog to digital conversion is performed with 20-bit precision. As shown in the block diagram below, four high impedance balanced analog audio inputs enter the module on a high density 15-pin connector.
  • Page 3 Model 6010 Four Channel 20-bit Audio ADC APPLICATIONS Converting Analog VTR Audio Output to Digital In the application shown below, a 6010 module converts the audio outputs of an analog VTR to digital. Note that a 6030 Video Referenced AES/Word Clock Generator module provides an AES clock reference for the 6010 module.
  • Page 4 Model 6010 Four Channel 20-bit Audio ADC Converting Audio Outputs of Two Independent 2-Track Analog Tape Recorders Even though it is a four channel device, the 6010 utilizes two separate 2-channel A/D con- verters. In this application, a 6010 module converts the audio outputs of two independent 2-track analog audio tape recorders to digital.
  • Page 5: Installation

    Model 6010 Four Channel 20-bit Audio ADC INSTALLATION Plug the 6010 module into any one of the ten slots in the frame and install the plastic overlay provided onto the corresponding group of rear BNC connectors associated with the module location. Note that the plastic overlay has an optional adhesive backing for securing it to the frame.
