Well, I've just discovered ripple on 3.3V AVCC dual module (not the latest 3.5V) and this ripple is about 400 mVpp on both channels and frequency is about 274KHz. I wouldn't call it normal behavior. What should I do?

OMG, I was really dissatisfied with the sound of the Buffalo III, it was thin, edgy, harsh, rude, unlistenable actually and I thought something is fundamentally wrong either with my Buffalo setup, or my system as a whole but I would never expect that dual AVCC module can be a culprit with these oscillationsBrick wall. I had no desire to listen to music at all, sometimes for several weeks(months) at least on my system.
Last winter I removed Crystek 100MHz clock and went to synchronous road with Acko's pcbs but to no avail. I mean everything worked from the start but the sound was still unbearable.
I have the scope from the last November but it never occurred to me to probe the little buggers.Brick wall Brick wall Brick wall

And now, it's a long night ahead of me.

I am not shure if I have the latest version of the AVCC module. I ordered my second BIIIse in May this year ( with Tridents and AVCC ).

Brian ? Anyone ?

I'm quite sure it's the previous version. Brian just posted on the diyaudio forum that the new version is now readily available.

One SOIC-8 package -> Older version
Two SOIC-8 packaes -> Newest version

I have actually been shipping the new version for several weeks, but not all the way back to May :)

Hi Brian,

sorry for being overcautious.
If I'll order AVCC from Trident page now, I'll get AVCC new version - v3 or something (not v2.1 as it is now on Trident page)?

Thanks,
Fedor
