Hi, I have the IC but not adapter boards as DACs that originally used CS8412 are usually outperformed by newer designs in various ways. In other words I would not bother to use an adapter board but rather build/buy a new source device with well performing built in DAC chips (and thus avoiding both USB and SPDIF interfaces completely).
If you insist on using old interfaces an adapter board can be designed quite fast in kiCAD. Others have made adapter boards for older SPDIF receiver ICs but please note the jitter numbers of both the original and the replacements. I have seriously heard tube guys stating that jitter is needed for audiophile playback so if that is your cup of tea...

BTW Ali has them in all tastes, even with AK4118:

It is a TDA1541A dac.I have newer dacs that I listen to.So the question still stands ,any one have a DIR9001 with adapter to dip28
or a WM8804 with adapterboard dip28.
or a WM8804 with adapterboard dip28.
The link to Ali. They have them. For 16.67 Euro the DIR9001 version including free shipping. For 17.51 Euro the WM8804 version.
@Ryssen Do you want me to order one for you from mouser? I will be placing order today or tomorrow, still adding a few things.

I already have the 28 tssop to DIP adapters and your address 😉

Non native speaker here so many language mistakes but I think he wants a drop in replacement in DIP28 format to replace a CS8412. A bit like the thread title indicates. These are not pin compatible so one needs a "translation" PCB with a technically superior SPDIF receiver to replace the nowadays unacceptable jittery CS8412.

He wants a DIR9001 mounted to an adapter board to fit a DIP 28 footprint? They only exist as SMD package.
Sorry if I misunderstood.

No. He wants a DIR9001 mounted on a PCB with the footprint of a CS8412 to replace the latter.
No worries, we'll manage 🙂

I use one of these for my dual 1541 dac; Works well and have used a few with different dacs.

You just to connect the I2s ouput to where the CS8412's connect to.

batteryman I allready have those inputs on my board and the selector..
So the link that Jean-Paul linked to ,the are the WM8804 better than DIR9001?

I wouldn't know. Maybe Jean-Paul would use WM8804 or AK4118. WM8804 is less picky compared to DIR9001 and reduces jitter to a half...quarter of that of CS8412. AK4118 is the ahem "new(est)" kid on the block and maybe it is the most interesting one of all.
Trust me, I have heard many stories of people going back to CS8412. Apparently the high jitter adds something they like.

Ok I ordered a AK4118,at least I have sommething to compare with.
I have not yet finnished the dac.
Thank you all!
