The DSD1791 does require the digital input to be in a specific format that includes clocking info and data for each mode. There are timing diagrams in the data sheet that show how this works. Without getting too technical, there is a digital chip (dsd decoder and a pcm decoder) for each of the modes, one for PCM and one for DSD, in order to get the required data and clock formats required for the modes of digital input to the DSD1791. The DSD1791 does the full conversion to analog and has differential voltage outputs. An analog LPF usually follows the DAC in order to get rid of HF noise caused by the digital to analog conversion process. I left out a lot so let me know if you have any other questions. The data sheets are great because the circuit and timing diagrams help you understand how it works. Also, some companies have extensive application notes that describe this all in detail. Good luck.
