Does any anyone know how one can get an application note of the new
bitstream chip from Philips, the 8350? I read some features in a
hifi magazine and they seem interesting. The chip has two one
bit DAC's, no digital filter and can interface with filters
of 16, 18 and 20 bits, with oversampling rates as high as 8!
It is now used in the very expensive Meridiam 603 converter
and just yesterday I read a review of the new Deltec PDM1 Mk2
converter which started using this chip too. The reviewer
said something about an upgrading kit for old Deltecs, but
any one else seems to know about it. He also says that
the digital filter is sourced from Yahama.

I tried getting the application from Philips, but got no answer.
