We used to stock a PiCam Module (https://www.adafruit.com/product/5247) that would plug into a Pi CM4 or CM5 - recently we went to restock it, but the vendor hasn't replied to our emails for many months. So, it could be a good time for us to design something that works similarly but with more capabilities. So we tasked Timon (https://github.com/tim…

We're starting to stock a lot of chips that can do digital I2S out, which makes for great-quality audio playback. That's great when you have enough processing power to decode WAVs or MP3s in real-time. However, we could really use some better DACs in the shop. We like the UDA1334A (https://www.adafruit.com/product/3678), but that's technically disc…

We'd like high-quality I2S digital audio generation for our Fruit Jam board, and both 16-ohm headphone/line level out and a mono 8-ohm speaker driver.Ideally, we wouldn't need two or three chips to achieve this: the DAC would have headphone drivers and a class D speaker driver. We'll need I2C control, 3.3V logic, and up to 5V for speaker power. Whe…
