we came to the conclusion that it's probably much easier to have the AOUT only output **unipolar 0 to 10 volt**, and design **a simple -5v level shifter board** that can be used as an add-on (or separate module with hands-on access to the level shifting) to **shift the output to -5 to +5 volt** where needed.\\ | we came to the conclusion that it's probably much easier to have the AOUT only output **unipolar 0 to 10 volt**, and design **a simple -5v level shifter board** that can be used as an add-on (or separate module with hands-on access to the level shifting) to **shift the output to -5 to +5 volt** where needed.\\ | ||

**Con:**dramatically increase the calibration range, i.e. exactly calibrating the outputs will get harder because the same angle of turning the pot will have much more impact.\\ | **Con:**dramatically increase the calibration range, i.e. exactly calibrating the outputs will get harder because the same angle of turning the pot will have much more impact.\\ | ||

+ | ====== MODs ====== | ||
+ | ===== MODE Resistor - Noise vs Distortion ===== | ||
+ | SSM2164 Pin 1 (the first pin) sets the "Mode" | ||
+ | ==== Class AB ==== | ||
+ | Pin 1 is Open, no Resistor to +12V (PCB Default)\\ | ||
+ | Lower current results in higher distortion/lower noise.\\ | ||
+ | ---i do want distortion and dont care about noise--- so i do not change anything, the pcb is fine. | ||
+ | ==== Class A ==== | ||
+ | Pin 1 is Connected to +12V via a Resistor\\ | ||
+ | Higher current results in lower distortion/higher noise\\ | ||
+ | lets look in the datasheet:\\ | ||
+ | {{:phatline:ssm2164-ab-a.png?600|}}\\ | ||
+ | Figures 11 and 12 show the THD and noise performance of the | ||
+ | SSM2164 as the bias current is adjusted\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | I_MODE = ( (V+)−0.6V )/ RB\\ | ||
+ | 1,52mA = (12V-0.6V) / 7,5K\\ | ||
+ | Leaving the MODE pin open sets the SSM2164 in Class AB with 30 μA in the Gain-Core\\ |
