Hi guys, long time lurker first time poster. This is a little hobby project I am doing. I am basically wanting to hook this CSR 8675 BT transceiver board variant up to this SA9227 USB interface. I have got sort of halfway into researching everything I need to make it happen but am now feeling a little lost. I figured you guys will likely be able to figure it out in minutes what is taking me days to make sense of.
The SA9227 Interface seems to have SPDIF in and out. As well as I2c. The driver that installs gives me "Speakers" and "Line in" I assume this is related to the SPDIF in and out at the front of the board.
The CSR 8675 based BT transceiver board is actually quite a nicely done bit of kit with the major drawback of having no USB functionality apart from an SPI interface and potentially the ability to use it as a BT module. What I am hoping to do is to get it to talk to my PC as an audio interface. I do not think that doing that is possible without adding an interface chip such as the SA9227 (please correct me if I am wrong + the SA9227 was not specially selected so much as what I had laying about).
I guess my question is, is there any obvious way for me to patch the SPDIF or I2C on the SA9227 into this CSR board so I can use it as a playback and recording interface from my PC? Or is there perhaps an easier way to get the CSR board to function as an USB sound card that I have not thought of?
I am really hoping to take advantage of the OPT and AUX connectors and the DAC/ADC/DSP in the CSR chip.
