A Stereo Digital Volume Control based on the CS3310 - The CS3310 is a
complete stereo digital volume control designed specifically for audio systems. It
features a 16-bit serial interface that controls two independent, lowdistortion
audio channels. The CS3310 includes an array of well-matched resistors and a low
noise active output stage....(data sheet added 07/07) |

An Inexpensive Tone Encoder - Figure 1 illustrates an easy circuit that can
be constructed with mostly Radio Shack parts on any general purpose circuit board.
The only rigid requirement is that capacitor C1 be stable over a wide temperature
range. Use only Mylar, Polyester or Metal film for capacitor C1. The frequency is
determined by the following formula: FREQUENCY = 1/R1C1 The specified values
should allow any tone between 100 to 300 Hz. Increase R1 or add another resistor
in series with R1 for lower tone frequencies.... [Radio Amateur Society of

Audio Level Meter - Audio levels can be monitored using a small panel meter
with this circuit built from discrete components. The circuit has a flat
frequency response from about 20Hz to well over 50Khz. Input sensitivity is 100mV
for a full scale deflection on a 100uA meter. Built on two common emitter
amplifiers, the first stage has a preset resistor which may be adjusted for a FSD.
The last stage is biased to operate at roughly half the supply voltage for maximum
ac voltage swing. Audio frequencies are passed through the 10u dc blocking
capacitor and the full wave bridge rectifier converts the signal to a varying dc
voltage....(schematic design added 01/2010) |

Audio level meter VU Meter - This circuit uses just one IC and a very few
number of external components. It displays audio level in terms of 10 LEDs. The
input voltage can vary from 12V to 20V, but suggested voltage is 12V. The LM3915
is a monolithic integrated circuit that senses analog voltage levels and drives
ten LEDs providing a logarithmic 3 dB/step analog display. LED current

Beetle Mk III - This project is based on our most stable FM transmitter. It
has a number of features, with a volume control to adjust the input level and a
small, neat box to make it easier to attach to a guitar. The volume control is
positioned at the end and when turned up fully, the transmitter provides fuzz

Build a simple, soft-action muting switch - 14-Oct-04 Issue of EDN The
circuit in Figure 1 adds a soft muting switch with power-up/power-down muting to a
line-level audio circuit. R4, C1, and JFET Q1 quietly ground a signal in 100 to
200 msec when you close S1 or release it when you open S1. Potentiometer R2, set
to twice Q1's cutoff voltage, makes the on/off transition times roughly equal....

Delay Unit For Surround Sound - The Mitsubishi M65830 Digital Delay IC has
been discontinued (for reasons beyond my comprehension), and so far a suitable
replacement device has not been found. This means (of course) that you will be
unable to build this delay circuit. I have left the project in place as reference,
and the overall connection schematic is still valid if (when?) a replacement for
the M65830 is located. The project will be updated at that time. In the meantime,
just ignore the delay circuit.... (schematic / Circuit design added 9/02)

Digital volume control has log taper - 11-Apr-02 Issue of EDN Digital
potentiometers provide a compact and convenient way to attenuate audio-amplifier

potentiometer in a nonlinear sequence to simulate a logarithmic taper.... [Design
