Description

The THAT Digitally-Controlled Mic Preamp Demo Board allows developers to
evaluate the performance of the THAT1570 / THAT5171 chipset.  The demo
board provides a balanced audio input on a Neutrik “combo” connector with 48V
phantom power, and a balanced audio output on XLR and ¼” TRS connectors.
The supplied graphical user interface (GUI) controls all functions in the 5171 chip
via USB.  A prototyping area is available for adding or modifying circuitry.
