The Great Search: I2S microphone @DigiKey @Adafruit

These are nifty little all-in-one chips that have a microphone port plus I2S output. All you have to do is send BCLK and LRCLK and 24- or 32-bit data pops out, no configuration or amplification or filtration or digitization or quantization required. You pay a little more but for small builds, they're easy as pie.

I hope you guys keep doing this series forever. I use all the tips I learn for hobby stuff as well as professionally, and it’s like just having some cool friend you can browse DigiKey with. Thank you!

2:02 "But the analog voltage is kind of low. It's like a 100 V peak to peak" Talk about low voltage :D
