Danny's Interview on UAC2 at Embedded World 2023

In this chat Danny Fisher discusses Gowin’s new application-specific board for the LittleBee flash-based FPGAs. This board is designed to challenge the microcontroller-dominated USB audio interface market by utilising the on-chip USB PHY, which eliminates external components, reduces BOM, and results in a more compact end product while retaining up to 32-bit resolution and 768 KHz sample rate for extremely high-definition audio output.

Danny then shows us an example of an end-product USB audio amplifier that uses Gowin’s solution and is remarkably compact and discrete. LittleBee FPGAs are also suitable for home audio recording applications and could be scaled up from stereo to 8- or 16-channel audio as a lower-cost alternative to traditional microcontroller-based interfaces.
