See http://www.cirrus.com/design/products/index.cfm?c=12 The CS8405 is just a transmitter/driver. The CS8420 is a much more powerful chip with a driver, a receiver and a sample rate converter that can be combined in various ways. -- Dave Tweed -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The list server can filter out subtopics (like ads or off topics) for you.
