Sean, THanks for the reply. Wow I was not expecting the Founder of the company to answer a question. We have had similar experiences as I was one of a handful of people who began a startup together in 2002 and that company was later purchased (alas, for a song). I am satisfied to see people who take a risk, build a Comapny that makes a REAL PRODUCT and employs people in meaningful work, see the fruits of their labor.
My DAC will have a PIC on the board so perhaps I'll try to do as you suggest and have the clock switch using the channel status information. It's more than I was intending to take on but what the heck. I don't have to do it all at once. I'm adding some strategically placed resistors so the DAC can work statically while I work on SW - after getting the base HW to work. The DAC will have dual 1704K chips per channel (I have an all balanced system) and I've got separate L/R analog supplies, multiple regulated, and isolated from the digital so I hope it will turn out well. I think I'm doing most things that are in a high-end DAC. I was planning to test the Transporter lock to DAC by triggering off the source word clock, then as you say on scope channel B view the S/PDIF in and should see that they are locked. No worries. Dave, my apologies and thanks for the info. For some reason I didn't think of using Google to search, I searched the message board and read a frightful number of posts by people who appear to have no earthly clue what jitter is, spread their "knowledge" around. As always, on the net, you have to filter things. Cheers guys and wish me luck. -- wayne325 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ wayne325's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29916 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=62747 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
