Take care on the resonant frequency of L1 and C1. To avoid high Q factor you can add a 100R in series with L1. I measured the peak at 4.8MHz witch is not a noisy frequency.<\/p>\n<div class=\"internal-linking-related-contents\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.geh-tech.com\/index.php\/marantz-pm350-how-to-repair-a-vintage-amp\/\" class=\"template-2\"><span class=\"cta\">Lire la suite<\/span><span class=\"postTitle\">Marantz PM350 : How to repair a vintage amp<\/span><\/a><\/div><p>The input is a jack connection with an asymetric convertion. With this you can use a balanced and unbalanced microphone and XLR to JACK converter are also supported.<\/p>\n<h2>Amplification stage<\/h2>\n<p>First I wanted to use an instrument amplifier. But the bandwidth is really low if you need gain. So I use a standard opamp. The amplification is really basic. On the negative input there is a RC filter to rejects the low frequencies. For this application I used the TL081 OpAmp. Other can also be used as the LT1055 for example.<\/p>\n<div class=\"internal-linking-related-contents\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.geh-tech.com\/index.php\/isolateddmx_splitter\/\" class=\"template-2\"><span class=\"cta\">Lire la suite<\/span><span class=\"postTitle\">Isolated DMX splitter<\/span><\/a><\/div><p>With a standard microphone you will need +40dB gain. The potentiometer R3 is used to adjust the gain. I put a 5k multitour potentiometer and it is set at mid-range.<\/p>\n<h2>Output stage<\/h2>\n<p>The output has also a dc-link with a 1&micro;F cap. Than it&rsquo;s connected to RCA connector.<\/p>\n<h2>Power Supply<\/h2>\n<p>The power supply comes from an 9V AC adapter. I used this to have a symetrical power supply for the opAmp. To do this, only two diodes, one to push positive voltage and one to tied negative voltage.<\/p>\n<h1>&nbsp;Simulation results<\/h1>\n<p>The frequency response simulated with LT-spice is :<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.geh-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/PreAmp_Response.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-125 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.geh-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/PreAmp_Response-1024x279.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"821\" height=\"224\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The response is really flat over the audio frequencies. Maybe It could be good to filter more frequencies under 10Hz by reducing C3 to 10&micro;F. Otherwise seems OK.<\/p>\n<h1>Manufacturing<\/h1>\n<p>I have also an old small box. Drilling some holes and the power connector is fixed with glue. for the PCB i used a prototype board.
