This week was slow for hardware development—we were getting over being under the weather. But we did poke a little at a PCM5122 breakout board (https://www.digikey.com/short/fnf9t0b1). This chip can do software or hardware control of I2S signals and is preferred by folks who want something a little nicer than the PCM5102 (https://www.adafruit.com/product/6250). We also wrapped up our design for th...

We've been putting a lot of I2S DACs in the shop, like the PCM5102 (https://www.digikey.com/short/fnf9t0b1) and TLV320DAC3100 (https://www.digikey.com/short/wj2d8w2h), and working on more like the PCM5122 (https://www.digikey.com/short/fnf9t0b1). What we'd really like is an I2S speaker amplifier that is preferably stereo and can do more than 5W—e.g., a cross between the MAX98357 (https://www.adafr...

Testing a PCM5122 I2S DAC, adding LEDs to the 8x solenoid driver, and prototyping a "USB CC Fixer" to charge a tricky baby monitor. Also we're on the hunt for a stereo I2S amp with 5W+ output.

Build a 3D printed Bluetooth speaker, inspired by the TV Show Severance. Powered by the Feather ESP32 V2 and the MAX98357A 3W I2S amplifier.  This project is written in Arduino and uses two libraries by Phil Schatzmann that make using the ESP32 for Bluetooth audio really easy. Great for playing defiant jazz, watching your favorite TV show, or sync with your mobile device. Just please don't throw i...

For our next design of the Fruit Jam board, we want to design a top plate that will let the header strip and switch poke out. This means we also have to choose buttons that will be able to poke out, so that they can be pressed when the plate is in place. Measuring the header height, it's 8.5mm tall, so we want 6mm x 6mm SMT tactile switches with more than 8.5mm actuator height from PCB (but no mor...
