Yep, we're working with a lot of BB-branded parts from TI--op-amps, etc.
I wish the DAC line had been kept up. It would be nice to have another alternate to ESS for the lower-end products at least. I keep asking TI, but they don't really understand what the price/performance needs to be to go up against competitors like AKM and ESS. I'm not surprised they aren't big on expanding in that market, though. I can't imagine it's a big opportunity for them, given their size in other areas. Another sometimes-bad decision. It could be the right decision for a different company.
In happier news, TI is now working direct with us for the higher-end DACs (DAC8812, etc) that are bottlenecks for other products. I expect to see Modi Multibit 2 in a week or so and Bifrost 2 later this month. Finally.
Does this mean that Modi MB 2 is going from AKM to TI like Bifrost 2/64?
