Anyone built a ZynADAC?

[blt]

Hi Folks

I’m thinking of building my own ZynADAC using the design on GitHub. I’m mostly interested in doing it to learn about the process. Not sure if I will do it by hand or get one of the PCB manufacturers to assemble it.

Has any one done this themselves and can share tips or what pitfalls to look out for?

It looks like the oscillators would be the hardest to solder by hand. Other than that the design looks to be based on the TI evaluation module.

Back in 2024 @stojos and others began building an audio card for Zynthian mini, you might find it fascinating:

Hi Guys, I am looking to add audio in hardware to mini but I could not find well supported affordable alternative as we have for audio out. I looked first to integrate readily available i2C ADC PCM1808 but that one need external clock source and I could not find kernel overlay for it. There is another alternative using waveshare WM8960 audio hat - not that affordable but still third the price of cheapest hifiberry DAC ADAC cards and with decent raspberry pi support. Did anyone try this one ? …

Thanks. I noticed that but wasn’t certain how ready it was to build myself. It’s a long thread so I’ll try to catch up with what is going on

Thanks for looking, that’s very generous. I can pay for shipping if it helps
