YM3016

YM3016 found in a AES system.

The YM3016 is a floating point, 16bit stereo Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) made to work with the YM2610.

Both chips were made separately to avoid parasitic noise.

Pinout

File:Ym3016.odg Todo: TOBUF is an output.

• SD: Serial Data input from YM2610
• CLK: Serial clock input from YM2610
• FORM: Format selected (binary or 2's complement), always tied to VCC in NeoGeo systems
• SMP1 & SMP2: Alternating clocks for the L/R sample-and-hold circuits, comes from the YM2610
• ICL: ? Always tied to VCC
• CH1 & CH2: Left and right audio outputs
• COM: Common input for both sample-and-hold circuits (L/R demux)
• TOBUF: Output to analog buffer for COM
• RB: Bias voltage output ?
