Well, the CS8412 was discontinued (it's not on the Crystal website), and my doubt is if there's any non-SMD S/PDIF receiver that I can use.
Sometimes I can get discontinued chips around here, like the TDA1541A, but when I ask for the CS8412 they look at me as if I was Ben Ladden.
Oh, and a search on the TI website gives hundreds of results...
Any idea?
Thanks guys.

I can still order them from one of my suppliers. I guess there's still a lot of them collecting dust in ware houses.
Re: modulator / receiver
Thanks Happy Ears.
Do you easilly get that Yamaha part?
I can't even get the datasheet of the YAC517 dac chip of one of my cd players.

The datasheet for the SAA7274 is fairly available on the web and the chip comes in 24 pin DIL. It has been discontinued for a while but still seems available.
Thanks rfbrw, Philips parts may be easyer to find than Yamaha ones.
So...
No currently made/avalidable non-SMD S/PDIF receiver?
What about Burr-Brown?

Carlos, I can still buy CS8412 with 2002 datecodes here for about 20 Euro/piece.
How many chips do you want ?

Thanks Jean-Paul, but Elso made me an offer with a special price and I'm gonna get one from him.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.

Older CS8412 versions are flawed with errors that were corrected in rev. C or G ( sorry, pretty vague info but I really try to remember only the relevant info which is to use later revisions > the newer the better ). That's what I read in some document from Crystal I once stumbled on. I searched for old mail with Jocko who did know what the errors were but I don't have that mail anymore. I did a comparison some years ago and to be true I only remember that the newer version locked a lot better. From that I think *now* that the PLL was improved.
The problems were solved around 1996 or 1997.
Still have some unused YM3623's.... I prefer CS8412.

I think it's even more difficult to get the Yamaha YM3623 nowadays.

Who says it is hard to find YM3623????
I still have a pile of them. New, even. Cheap, too.

try here for a CS8412CP- i will tell you wich revision is the chip tomorrow because I haven't them here. Reichelt has an minimum order 50Euro- they also have TDA1543N really cheap.

Do you send samples?
Ok, just joking...😀

Re: cs8412cp
Hi daniel,
All CP versions are OK.😎
But you must use some form of resetcircuit after power on.😎
