I'm pretty sure I know the answer, but I thought I'd ask anyway!
The only OEM module that decodes full digital (without any AUX/analog audio connection) is the Combox. Anything else -MULF, OEM HU with built-in USB- uses analog audio inputs with the iPod/iPhone.

USB sticks are 100% digital regardless of OEM module.
