Production Update - 07/23/21
Finally some good news! The 40-Pin GPIO Headers have just arrived. The not so good news is they arrived at 7PM on a Friday and my guy who does the assembly work is out until next Wednesday. But at least we can now put a plan and begin shipping by the end of next week., As before, if anyone wishes to, they can cancel their order for a full refund.
​
Many thanks for your continued patience from the Pi 2 Design team, and stay safe!

PI2AES - Now with Black Opaque Case Option

    PI2AES Questions
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 require a minimum of 24V DC Input, up to the maximum of 48V. Some units may be marked +12V to +48V. Please contact us with any questions regarding this change.
