Title: Passive mixer question
Post by: SteveyD on June 10, 2012, 06:33:49 am

Jan,

In the MicroRDS user manual;

Figure 5.2.1
Simple Passive Mixer.

Is the resistor value of 1K5 on the Audio/MPX signal for a mono audio input?

How would you handle a Stereo Audio input for this circuit?

For stereo audio use two inputs instead of one and place two 3k3 resistors. So there will be three inputs and three resistors total connected to the sum point.

Code: [Select]

Left  o--[===]---------\     2x 3k3
                        \
Right o--[===]-----------*---->
                        /
RDS   o--[===]---------/     15k
Of course you will broadcast in mono as there's no stereo encoder.
