MASH multi-stage noise shaping

Technics' Innovative MASH 1-bit Digital-to-Analog Conventer.

To achieve ideal digital-to-analog conversion, Technics develloped the MASH 1-bit DAC. An improvement on conventional DAC's this advanced system uses high-order oversampling technology and noise shaping technology to theoretically eliminate non-linear distortion, thereby assuring accurate reproduction of minute signals.

All of Technics Cd players feature the MASH 1-bit DAC, and it is now the most widely used digital-to-analog conventer. 1-bit DAC is the general term for D/A conventers that output only two kinds of voltage, high and low . Because there are only two output voltages, even if there are changes in output voltage due to temperature changes and changes over time, DAC linearity is maintained. After the noise shaping circuitry stage, Technics employs superior PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) circuitry to achieve optimum 1-bit DAC performance.
