DAC design | First step: SPDIF receiver

Not open for further replies.
Hello everyone,

As I'm new on the forum I think I should present myself.
So, I'm student in an engineering school (however most focus on mechanic...) and I'd like to improve my electronic knowledge leading a DAC design project.
I must admit I remain a pure "newby" in electronic, but I'm disposed to spend a lot of times: I'm there to learn!

The DAC will be used in conjunction with:
  • A CD player with SPDIF output.
  • A dedicated PC (I have not chosen yet the way to interconnect them).
    (none permanent list)

Nowadays I try to define the project in the broad lines and I hope you could give me some advices:
  • A SPDIF receiver based on Cirrus Logic CS8416.
  • I have not chosen the filter yet (maybe a NPC filter)...
  • I'm hesitating between Texas Instrument PCM1704, DSD/PCM2794 or Analog Device AD1955: I really need some help.
    What do you think about these choices ?

    However, currently my main matter of concern is the SPDIF receiver. I'm looking for solution to prevent jitter issue.
    Any advice is welcome !

    Best regards

    Fred

CS8412 and TDA1543! Theres another CSxxxx that is a complete stereo dac with spdif in and stereo analog audio out.
TDa1543 would constituean economic and "esay-to-go" alternative,but I'm looking for something else. 😉

The CS8416 is a good choice but if you only have two inputs you might want to consider the AKM AK4117. It has two inputs as opposed to the eight on the CS8416.
Indeed, I don't need the 8 inputs of the CS8416.

However, does the AK4117 performs as well as the CS8416 ?
