The DACBerry400 M provides high-quality audio capabilities for your Raspberry Pi 400.
It's a high-resolution soundcard with gold plating and a matte black finish. It fits discretely onto the back of the Pi400, avoiding the clutter of cables and fixtures used with other, lesser solutions. It is also usable with standard Raspberry Pi boards, plugging directly onto the GPIO header.
With no analogue outputs of its own, the Raspberry Pi relies on HAT (Hardware Attached on Top) expansion modules to provide features such as audio input/output. With two 3.5mm jacks (stereo out/mic-in + line-in) the DACBerry400 M supports both audio out (headphones, line-out) and audio in (MIC, line-in). The DACBerry400 connects to the Raspberry Pi 400’s 40-pin GPIO header and provides pass-through for further expansion.
It suites all users from beginners to professionals. Just connect your DACBerry400 M to desired powered speakers or to an audio amplifier and you can be up and running quickly, enjoying flawless high-quality audio playback.
It integrates a 96kHz/32bit DAC chip with hardware volume control, allowing you to play/record your files digitally. Outputs are line-level headphone over 3.5mm jack cable. The DACBerry400 uses the I2S interface for its audio input which reduces CPU load on the Raspberry Pi compared to USB solutions. It is powered directly from the GPIO header so no extra cables or power supplies are needed, keeping all USB ports on the Pi 400 free for other uses.
With Audio Recording capability, it brings you a new world of possibilities. Play or copy your CDs in the most accurate way, convert digital signal to analogue or switch between two different audio sources.
The software-configurable DACBerry400 fits easily into the Raspberry Pi ecosystem. It uses an integrated DSP to create 3D effects including equalisation and de-emphasis. This is complemented by a DAC with 102dB SNR and ADC with 92dB SNR. The low-noise design partitions the analogue and digital functions to achieve THD+N @ 1kHz of 0.003%.
No soldering is required, it’s simple to install and use, connect your DACBerry400 to a set of speakers, headphones or an audio amplifier and enjoy crystal-clear high-quality audio playback.
