What is the best ESP32 board and audio playback solution for a smart clock with NTP synchronization?
@Daniel kalu Firstly, you have to know the functionality of each parameter in your project,MAX98357A is an integrated I2S DAC and amplifier, simplifying design and reducing space, but it may exhibit distortion under certain conditions.The PCM5102A offers potentially better audio quality and lower distortion, but requires an additional amplifier, increasing complexity and size.While,SGTL5000 is a versatile codec suitable for various applications, but it is considered older technology☺️, raising concerns about future support and obsolescence. So you have to consider the choice of what you need from the project, For simplicity,MAX98357A should dominate during your project. Then,for a good audio quality ,go for PCM5102A or maybe it is the Versatility you are aiming at, go for SGTL5000.
