Hey folks. I'm finalizing a major update in the Raspberry Hat family. I've straighten out the full lineup of DACs that I have developed and tested and all of them are available right now in a cost-efficient Hat shape (Media Center versions are coming up next). All of them available in 1X version, which is a simple stereo DAC; and a 2X version that is a Dual configuration that is possible to use on new Raspberry Pi 5 with both outputs available independently (so you can create multi-zone systems using a singe host device).
First in the line is HiFi Rasberry Pi Hat based on well known PCM5100 DAC
The next one is Loud Raspberry Pi Hat based on MAX98357A DAC (5W per channel with 5V at input)
Amped Raspberry Pi Hat is a PCM5100 DAC combined together with TPA3110 D-class amp. It is very easy to setup and it can drive large speakers, delivering up to 25W per channel (or about twice as much in bridge mode)
An the last one is well known Louder Raspberry Hat based on TAS5805M DAC, with around the same 25W per channel, but now with 2X version with a companion DACs connected together to drive 2.1 speaker set
This feels as a major achievement for me and I hope that anyone who's out there to do an audio on Raspberry will find something useful for themselves.
