[sdiy] dsPIC interfacing with multiple CODEC chips

[Seb Francis]

Yeah, it would probably solve the interface problem.  What put me off 
using a multichannel CODEC was the package.  I've never soldered SMT 
stuff before and I don't really feel confident starting with MQFP.  Plus 
I want to breadboard it and I can't find anywhere that sells 
MQFP-to-thruhole adapters.

Everything I found in TSSOP package was only stereo in/out.
