Re: Thoughts on These Components for an EM272 P48 Mic Build
I have built a few sets of simpleP48 mics using Primo EM172 (matched pairs) or PUI AOM5024 electret capsules. My capacitors were little electrolytics, often salvaged from discarded electronics; my

Thoughts on These Components for an EM272 P48 Mic Build
What Do You Think of These Components for an EM272 P48 Build? I¡¯m putting together a P48 phantom power circuit for the EM272 mic and want top-notch audio quality. Here¡¯s what I¡¯m thinking: ?

Re: offcenter virtual ground, opamp mic with transformer
The other things that may be going on are secondary virtual ground conductance passes that affect the two 47K resistors, the transformer, i don't know exactly. The virtual ground works well with AC

"I'm guessing your friend was probably successful with his OPA1642 guard ring using an SOIC package?" Indeed, that was an SOIC. But the same guard ring design can also be applied when using a VSSOP

Re: Troubleshooting OPA142 circuit for noise-cancelling aviation mic
An update on this circuit. I finally had a clear day to prototype the left half of the circuit. I realised that an AD8220 was just an AD8226 with an extra FET stage in the input. Seeing as I've

Re: offcenter virtual ground, opamp mic with transformer
For hobbyist, guard rings might be difficult to apply correctly and implement on a PC board. But there are plenty of good examples on the internet of how to implement guardrings in combination with

Re: offcenter virtual ground, opamp mic with transformer
I agree that SOIC? - and especially? VSSOP - make guard rings very difficult - if not impossible! I've used 'air mounting' and scrupulous cleaning of the mounting adaptors - together with isolating

Re: offcenter virtual ground, opamp mic with transformer
Glad to read that decoupIing the TX has solved your offset problem. I think the removal of all the flux and dirt around the Hi-Z parts of an impedance converter is pretty important - this helps to

Re: offcenter virtual ground, opamp mic with transformer
I added a cap between the ground side of the transformer and actual ground. That sorted out the imbalance, the voltages now read perfectly. Next step is to try it with a capsule or maybe check the

Re: offcenter virtual ground, opamp mic with transformer
The latter term is more correct, but they actually are the same. The give-away is the identical units. I thought I read 17. My mistake. Well, 7dB can be a lot in a direct comparison. That's right.

Google "soic to dip" and you'll see several sources for little adaptor boards that make it possible to use those ICs in DIP sockets or protoboards. This would be handy at the experimental/development

I'm trying to understand this. the datasheets don't use exactly the same terms. is "equivalent input noise voltage" the same things as "voltage noise density"? TLE2071 gives "Equivalent input noise

Re: offcenter virtual ground, opamp mic with transformer
The noise voltage density of the TLE071 is 11dB higher tha the 1641. Depending on expectations, that may be a problem.
