That looks like the board sold in Europe by Audiophonics. It should do the job.

If it were me I would try this one as it uses the same Wolfson chip, it's bi-directional and it's cheaper! .... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WM8804-S-PDIF-TOSLINK-to-IIS-Converter-I2S-Codec-Project-integration-DIY-/141039832924?pt=UK_BOI_Electrical_Test_M...20d6a10f5c

Also this one won't block access to the gpio pins on the main P1 connector of the pi.

I don't know how you would get this working with another DAC for pure music to the pi though. Something to look into I guess.

thx for the link
as I understand it requires external PSU
