~this is what can be seen in the photo.
I have blobbed together the two inputs and had connected to ground, with a resistance.
But Miro's config is better and requires the same space, topology arrangement.!

More: what is hidden in the picture:
Should prepare the pads before placement:
With thin wire, beneath chip, connect:
Pin1 - pin6;
Pin7 - pin8;
Cover with tape : pin5; pin6; pin7

Place and solder the chip in 5 places:
Pin 1,2,3,4, 8.

On the remaining 3 free pins :
Solder pin7 - pin6;
Connect pin5 to ground. (Miro config)

Just a data point - I tried ordering AD1862NJs from 'janeh2100' on ebag. Order was marked shipped and then got a note that the parts were 'unavailable from their supplier'. Hopefully the other source mention will come through, I'd prefer not to have to buy a dozen from Rochester 🙂
 
Thank you JosephK for that link. I believe it is a very good solution for someone not having AD1862 yet or want to have a sota sorted out PCM63P with the K grade. Anyway with all the chips I have as for the tda1541A late Singapor years and a Cron one, AD1865K -certainly a false K as bought on an Ebay kit 10 years ago in China to a famous lady at that times- + my genuine Rochesters + the two last I bought yet for the Miro1360's cool DAC... I should buy myself ears 😀


With Rochester be aware the price is almost doubling cause DHL VAT + Customs fees. Calculated on the total amount purchased at Rochester so no vlume synergy but the moq of course.
 
I agree Miro.
My first chip purchase was $10
A week later, same seller $15.50,
Another week later, and now they are up to $22.50!!!

Maybe this thread is monitored by chip sellers, we should all chat in secret code from now on!! :rofl::rofl:
 
You tell me.. Pcm 58, 63, (now even 64, thanks Ruach!), 1865N-J, 1540, 1543, 1541..
