Internal layout of the DVP-NS9100ES as seen from the back. You can see the edge of one of the R-Core power transformers (1), the analog audio circuit (2), and the analog video circuits (3). The digital audio circuit board (4), which includes and the i.LINK output is partially hidden behind the analog video circuit.
The i.LINK® digital audio interface uses Digital Transmission Content Protection (DTCP), a robust system that protects the music from piracy. The application of the i.LINK (IEEE 1394) interface for Super Audio CD is clearly different from—and not compatible with—previous i.LINK interface applications for DV camcorders, PC peripherals and professional digital video systems. You can only connect the DVP-NS9100ES i.LINK output to a compatible digital audio input, such as that on the STR-DA7100ES receiver.
The i.LINK output circuit incorporates this Large Scale Integrated circuit from Texas Instruments.
