Hi everyone, For a stand-alone app. based on a mini6410, I need 4 extra audio-out ports wich should be able to operate all at the SAME time (Taken into account that the on-board AC97 is shut off during operation to reduce system-stress!), preferrably under Linux. In the background runs a wave-generating app. (Not too heavy!). Is this even possible at all ?!? If so.. 1. Should I use on-board USB1.1 (mèhhh!) or.. I2C (I was thinking about using Texas Instruments' DAC8574 (Quad 16-bit low-power I2C DAC), or.. uP-parallel bus latched by the DAC, what'd be the most economical way.. ? 2. Does anyone knows any nice (modular, dev.-) DAC/IO-kits by any chance? I've seen stuff for Arduino, buuut there's too much useless stuff on a PCB for my needs, also.. I completely suck at soldering/welding/butchering those SOP-chips onto a PCB.. :P ..! Anyone build such thing? I'd be more than happy if someone's willing to share his/her experience.. Regards 'n THANKS in advance.. Marg. // NL @Admin: Would be a great topic idear for this forum, a place to share hard-ware projects too.. Best way to learn is from example projects by users and PRO's.. ^x^ ..!
