I have not been paying much attention to digital for a bit now, but I have a need to put together a ADC, FPGA and DAC on a board for an idea (its to provide a delay element for Marks speaker experiments). What is the current flavour of the month with ADC and DAC chips. A quick google, makes the PCM4202 look a candidate.
Any view?

Sorry Nick, I can't help with chip recommendations. But the board sounds very interesting. Could you use it for RIAA phono equalisation with zero phase shifts?
#3 Re: ADC
Like the way the Mytek sounds Nick, chip is the Sabre 9018 K2M, not sure if it's available for diy though.

Though I guess the package is not DIY friendly, but TBH, the moment you enter modern FPGA land, you leave the possibility of soldering by hand. The FPGA I was looking at a 238 pins in a BGA.
Its the ADC that is the key though, there are loads of DAC options.

Mytek also sell ADC's. I believe the 192 uses AKM 5394A. Lots of love for this ADC from what I've read.
#6 Re: ADC
I dont see why not. The next step is to wrap the ADC and DAC around a dev board like this.

Though at the moment I am fighting with USB drivers and not got much further than creating a micro blaze processor on it and sending Hello World out the USB port.
