Desk of Ladyada – More TLV320 DAC’ing with a Bit of a Run-around #DeskOfLadyada @adafruit
This week at Ladyada’s desk, we spent waaaay too long trying to bring up the TLV320DAC3100 library and board, but we also learned a lot—a missing ground for headphones plus mixing up the mic pin on Apple headphones tripped me up for a few hours. However, now we have it working, we can probably book the breakout board.
We will use this DAC in many products since it’s got a nice mix of speaker + headphone support, and we desperately want to remake the AudioFX series. Jepler made a ton of progress on HSTX DVI output for the Fruit Jam board, particularly text mode, which could be helpful in some emulators.
This week, we could have saved ourselves some time by pulling out a pocket multimeter a little earlier in our project. We have tons of meters but always come back to our favorite, the Amprobe PM51A, which has been discontinued. Let’s look at what other mini-multimeters are available at DigiKey and some of the options you can choose from.
