just lookin at the intona datasheet bit confused as it says
LED Blink Codes
Flashing Standby, USB connection not established
Double Flashing Suspend, USB connection established and suspended by host
Slow Blinking (~1 Hz) Low Speed (1.5 MBit/s) data transmission
Blinking (~4 Hz) Full Speed (12 MBit/s) data transmission
Fast Blinking (~14 Hz)High Speed (480 MBit/s) data transmission
Always On Power supply or firmware error: power cycle the device
i assumed on sun if it was blinking at all there was no lock?
did we just think it wasnt working but it was only we didnt know it?

A 24/192 file only requires about 10mbps throughput but most USB audio devices now use high-speed protocol which is 480mbps so all signals & data are transmitted in both directions at this speed - the isolator needs to be able for this throughput.
Yes, Silanna was the company I was talking about in Tony's - the one that has done the equivalent of the Intona but on a single chip i.e. a high-speed USB isolator chip. Unfortunately they will only give details under NDA which means submitting company name website & annual turnover - so I guess they want to ship 1,000s of chips per order?

very little web info on the Silanna

whats the NDA worry about ? copys?

Nige I had the Blinking during operation disabled in case it caused any noise on audio when I ordered the Intona, they offered this option and I took it so normal blink codes do not apply.

Interesting. and even if this company only wants to deal with large scale OEMs, maybe they'll distribute through Farnell, Mouser, Digikey so we can get it. Also, if they can do it, I imagine others will have a similar device out soon.
The other thing I found interesting was the audiocircle thread was about running you music SSD through isolated USB with the olimex isolator, another thing I'll probably forget to try, lol
And I do have DSD, but mostly I listen to pcm these days. With my modded soekris dac, pcm sounds really good.

I just did the XLR connects on the Nigel's Regen (3.3v and 5v) and SEALED the box!!!!
Now my Sonic weld is not recognized true Regen anymore! It works perfectly from usb port.
When Regen is connected, Sonicweld is ON and I guess that I have 5v power, but how I can test if the data is going in.....or WHAT I'M GONNA DO NOOOOWWWW?!!!!!!

assume there's only three wires in your connection?
did you mix them up?
