Hello,

We are at the design phase of a new embedded product based on a PowerPC
and Linux.
The device should have an audio output and an audio input, if possible
with a HW compression (MP3) and if possible with an USB interface.

Is there an audio chip with these spec supported (with a working driver)
by Linux?

i can't really help you, but have you considered using ogg vorbis instead of or at least in addition to mp3? you will avoid royalty headaches, and vorbis to many ears delivers superior quality when compared to mp3 at the same average bitrate, especially so with low bitrates (check out cbc radio for an example: http://www.cbc.ca/listen/ogg.html)
