DRV600EVM Performance
The DRV600EVM uses a 1 μ F film capacitor for ac-coupling of the input signal. If a lower cost ceramic
capacitor such as an X7R is used, higher THD at low frequencies should be expected. Y5V capacitors will
show even higher THD performance and should not be used.
Figure 8. THD+N vs Frequency (600 Ω load) Using X7R Input Caps
The X7R capacitors raises the 20Hz THD from 0.02% to 0.1%—five times higher.
Reference voltage is 2V

This spectrum corresponds to a dynamic range of 110dB, A-weighted. SNR measures at 110dB,
A-weighted.
