Production Update - 01/14/2021
Goodbye 2020! 

PI2AES is in stock with minimal delivery delays (1-3 days at most). We are still short handed and limited hours due to the pandemic, but nothing like last year!

The PS Audio I2S over HDMI adapter has been re-spun, but we won't be able to get it into the assembly flow until next month. We though we could sneak it in, but again, fewer hours mean higher priority work keeps bumping it.

NOTE - a small number of orders wit power supplies may have gone out without the necessary 2.1mm Female to 2.5mm Male DC adapter. Let us know asap and we can either send you one. You can also buy it locally and we will rebate you the cost. Amazon has the one we use here:

​
We are sorry about this and appreciate your understanding.

 
Many thanks from the Pi 2 Design team, and stay safe!

FEATURES
  • RASPBERRY PI 4 COMPATIBLE - Tested on the latest Raspberry Pi 4 using Moode 6.10
  • AES TRANSMITTER – The industry standard WM8804 converts the RPi I2S stream to AES3/SPDIF formatted data at 24-Bit up to 192Khz
  • SPDIF COAX OUTPUT – An RCA connector with Isolation Transformer provides coaxial transmission of the SPDIF Audio Data Stream.
  • SPDIF OPTICAL OUTPUT – Isolated Optical Transmitter Supports Consumer Level DAC and AVR inputs
  • AES BNC OUTPUT - A 75 ohm BNC connector with Isolation Transformer provides for Single Ended AES transmission.
  • AES BALANCED OUTPUT – An RS-422 Transmitter coupled with Isolation Transformer allows the transmission of balanced audio data with 110 ohm impedance via the Professional Audio Standard XLR Connector
  • BUFFERED I2S OUTPUT – Parallel Buffered I2S is available for direct short
    distance connection to off-board D/A. Perfect for DIY use! I2C for control is also provided as well as 5V Regulated and Input Voltage Rails
  • DIFFERENTIAL I2S OUTPUT – A DS2063 Differential Transmitter is used to drive the I2S Bus via LVDS over a standard HDMI Connector. 
IMPORTANT NOTE - All units manufactured after 11/1/2019 require +24V DC Input. Please contact us with any questions regarding this change.
