  • docs: wiring a Pi-HAT DAC to the panel; Boards, the targets by role; pages follow the firmware Audio out gains the bench form of the DAC connection: a figure and a table of the three I2S wires, ground and the two I2C lines from the HAT's 40-pin header to J8, J6 and J5, with the power rule (the HAT on its own supply; J8 pin 2 is USB VBUS without a diode) and what the firmware logs at boot. Every pin reference on the page now matches the firmware that plays: BCLK GPIO 2, LRCLK GPIO 3, data GPIO 11, GPIO 12 spare, where the page had proposed GPIO 3, 12 and 11 before a wire was connected. The standing table, the firmware section and the bench list say what is proven (tone, FLAC at 44.1 and 96 kHz, MP3, the sink's volume) and what is not (tier 1 on J5, 32-bit slots, I2S slave). Boards is new: the ESP32 touch panels recorded as targets, read from the makers' pages on 19 October 2026, one table per role, with what a board must have to be a target and how to read a question mark. Hardware and Home follow: the stereo route is built and plays, the firmware crate exists, and the companion's crates come by tag where one exists.

  • docs(audio): Audio out as an options register against the panel's constraints; Hardware and Home follow No part chosen. Pi DAC HATs, bare I2S modules, TI (PCM5102A, PCM5122, TAD5242/5212), ESS (9023P, 9018K2M, 9028Q2M, 9038Q2M, 9039Q2M), a speaker amplifier (MAX98357A), digital out (WM8804 class) and Hymnal, each with clock, control, volume, output, tier and the maker's lifecycle word as read today. Carrier board shaped as a Pi header plus a module header on the same three lines; the PCM5102A kept as the worked example of a soldered part. Bench list extended for tier-1 boards and the slave role.
