TC35AL
USB‑C to 3.5mm Hi-Res DAC & Amp
High-Resolution Lossless Decoding
The TC35AL Hi-Res DAC & Amp supports playback of high-sample-rate audio formats. It adopts the CS43198 DAC chip paired with the SGM8262 discrete op-amp, precisely laid out on a coin-sized PCB. Housed in an ultra-thin metal shell, it matches mobile phones perfectly when in use.
Original T-Shape Design for Safer Connection
ddHiFi pioneered the T-shaped Hi-Res DAC & Amp back in 2020. Structural optimization reduces the exposed connector length to avoid interference. When plugged in and stored inside pockets or bags, it protects the unit from damage caused by squeezing or tugging on conventional long plugs. Inheriting this classic T-shaped architecture, the TC35AL achieves further slimming with simple, intuitive operation.
Ideal Companion for Lossless Mobile Audio
There is a wide selection of portable daily-use 3.5mm wired earphones on the market that support lossless playback. As smartphones phase out the 3.5mm jack and retain only USB‑C ports, a Hi-Res DAC & Amp becomes essential to drive earphones and fully restore lossless audio sources.
Works with 3.5mm Inline Control Earphones
A detection switch sits inside the earphone jack. The unit turns on automatically when you insert an earphone plug. TC35AL works with CTIA-standard 3.5mm inline-control earphones. The inline controller handles play/pause and volume adjustment. Earphone cables with microphones support voice interaction and calls.
ddHiFi Link APP
On Android phones, the TC35Air supports multiple settings via the ddHiFi Link App. Available options include indicator light control, filter selection and output gain adjustment. Custom 8-band EQ setting is also supported.
RGB Status Indicator
The RGB LED changes color according to the sampling rate of the playing track from your phone.
– Blue: PCM decoding ≤ 48kHz (e.g. 44.1kHz, 48kHz)
– Green: PCM decoding ≥ 88.2kHz (e.g. 96kHz, 192kHz, 384kHz)
– White: Native DSD output (DSD64, DSD128, DSD256 in native mode)
