Features, Technical Data and Application Examples
Features: 
  • 127 step volume control from -52dB to 0dB attenuation with 12 LED level indicators
  • 5 Inputs with LED indicators
  • Remote control via universal remote control (RC5 code)
  • Options for shunt operation (-52dB to -6dB)
  • 5 way Silver alloy relay input switching
  • LED‟s driven on/off, not “multiplexed” to remove digital noise
  • Audio PCB includes option for fitting two LSK389A forming a direct coupled zero feedback J-Fet buffer to make a stand alone buffered passive preamplifier
  • Control PCB delivered as one PCB but allows “break-off” of the rotary encoder & LED parts connection via supplied 20-Pin IDC cables
  • A single Control PCB can control up to 3 Audio PCB‟s (6 channels single ended or 3 channels balanced)
  • Control PCB connects to Audio PCB via 20-Pin IDC cables (supplied)
  • Power Supply using schottky diodes and low noise regulators
