6.2.6.4 Attenuator and Recommended Input Levels
The CLASSD features a digital attenuator with an attenuation range of 0–77 dB and a step size of 1 dB. When attenuation greater than 77 dB is programmed, the attenuator mutes the channel.
To avoid saturations in the PWM stage, it is recommended to avoid input levels greater than 1 dB below the digital full scale (-1 dBFS). This can done by programming a minimum attenuation of 1 dB.
