This module adds an analog audio in and out, a micro controller for IR receiver and sender, audio LED meter and an RS232 port to your Raspberry Pi. This board is currently in development and should be in production in Q2 2014. It connects to the Raspberry Pi board via the 26 pin GPIO header and the 8 pin I2S header.
