Cirrus Logic releases development kit for Lightning headphones

“Cirrus Logic releases development kit for Lightning headphones.

With Apple rumored to be doing away with the headphone jack on its new iPhone, Cirrus Logic is offering a development kit to aid headphone makers looking to simplify the switch to Lightning connectors. The company’s MFi Headset Development Kit includes reference designs for creating Lightning port connected headphones and a development board to be used in programming, debugging and testing audio performance. The design is compatible with earbuds.

I can see a world of iPhone only headphones all working via the lightning connector or more than likely improved Bluetooth headphones . Once Apple removes the headphone jack everyone else will too. If you can’t sell more phones just wait, manufacturers will be queuing up to sell you compatible headphones!
