Talk:Nano 3G

Audio-codec ?

How do we actually know that the 3G-nano uses WM1870 ?

The only references to this chip on the internets are on ipod-liberating sites who all seem to be quoting the same single source.

There is no mentioning of this chip on the 'wolfson'-site, no data-sheets to be found anywhere, etc etc ..

Doesn't it make more business-sense that the nano 3G would use the same codec as the other ipod released in 2007 ('Classic')?

I doubt that it's a Cirrus one. The nano 3G uses the same SoC as the classic, but the power manager and audio codec seems to be different. A quick glance shows neither evidence of Wolfson or Cirrus, so feel free to dig into the disassemblies to find out more. --TheSeven 19:18, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
