Wolfson recommends a 50Ohm resistor on the clock line of an I2S source. I haven´t seen this at other manufactors like BB, AD or Crystal....
What do you say? Only for longer trace distances? or generally?
But otherwise: What would be bad if I do so....

resistor on I2S lines
I hv seen an article in the Hifi News and Record Rev
magazine (1989 I believe, off the top of my head)
that recommends this as a solution to high rf
(rising and falling edges) signals around the circuitry.
I hv tried this on my cd player and the sounds seems
to be a little bit smoother, but that was my impression
then without significant listening. I have left it in there
since. I used 1k ohm.

termination
Try series termination at the source (driver) end of the trace. Maybe 20 to 30 ohms.

What's the rise time, logic level, and trace length? It isn't the format (I2S) that is important, but the signal parameters.
I know that it has nothing to do with I2S as it......
Let´s try it, resistors don´t cost a world, or should I use audiophile resistors ;-)

termination resistors
Just use some 1% 1/4watt and it should be fine. SMTs would be fine too. the idea is to use some non inductive.

I think the tolerance has nothing to do with it....🙂 but I hope I understand you, that you mean that lower tolerances mean also lower inductivity......
But another question: How Long (or short) should the traces at maximum be, I mean i could calculate it on my one, but has anyone practical experience with that? I plan to have split boards, one for the DIR, and one for the DAC. Should I buffer the lines with an 74HCT???? or is there a other method (despite the LVD one, seems to be an expensive one, isn´t it??)
Thanks
