Hi, Guys!
Use of French in the title is not arbitrary.
Chapeau ou non? literally translates to: “Hat or not?”. However,
chapeau is also frequently used as expression of admiration, approval, respect and is short for
chapeau bas (literally “hat down”) in a same sense as in English “I take my hat off”, “well done” or just doing the hat tip gesture. (

If
Chapeau ou non? in common language translates to: “Well done or not?”, why bother with French?
In this review I will take a closer look to a small DAC board that has printed PCM5102MK on it and I will refer to it as that (+ v2.0). As name suggests, it uses TI PCM5102A DAC chip. Usually, it can be found in entry-level Raspberry Pi’s (RPIs) Hardware-Attached-on-Top (or HAT for short) DAC designs.
However, PCM5102MK reviewed here is
not a HAT.
I hope by now you start to appreciate...
