NOS Dac noise when changing tracks

I made a board to put inside my Philips CD650 with two paralleled TDA1543 dacs, and OPA627 op-amps.
BTW, at least with op-amps, two TDA1543s sound much better to me than only one. It's one on top of the other (the top one is bypassed too).
I've got the I2S signals from the TDA7210.
For now I'm impressed with the sound, but there's some noise when hitting play or changing tracks.
I can hear the music starting to play for less than a second, then pause and the it starts.
I know that the TDA7220 internally mutes, but as I want NOS, I've got the I2S signals from the TDA7210.
Is there a way around this?
Thanks in advance.

P.S. I don't have the TDA7220 datasheet, I can't find it anywhere :bawling: , so I don't know if you can get NOS I2S from it.:scratch:
I don't want 4x OS...

Hi,

To restore muting just connect (wire "D") pin 23 of the SAA7220 to
pin 11 of the SAA7210.
That's all.
For muting schematic take a look at last picture on :

Hope this helps, courtesy of Marco Amboldi.

Datasheet of SAA7220 also on Marco's site.

He wants NOS, so no 7220

Bricolo,
If you have a look at the schematic you will see that this even works with a SAA7220 removed from the circuit.
Marco Amboldi' s NON-OS mod is to cut tracks on the PCB and to install jumper wires. I just remove the SAA7220.
The muting mod works in both cases.

I also installed the muting mod in my own CD650 and I can tell you it works!
:cool:
 
Hi Elso, nice to see you here.
Yesterday I looked again to the 650 schematic and I also think the solution is there.
The uP has a muting pin that intercepts the Data that goes to the TDA1541.
But your solution is really simple.
Thanks for the information Elso.

Bricolo, I downloaded the SAA7220 datasheet from the link you posted and the 3rd zip file is not ok...
I can't extract page 14.
Does anyone has page 14?

In fact, this tweak connects the 7210/7310's mute output to the bases of the muting transistors. Am I right?

If I am, how can I fix the same problem, but on a self made nos dac (with I2S, and TDA DAC), that of course hasn't muting transistors


PS: Elso, I got the Horowitz & Hill from my university's library. Time for learning ;)
I'll try to finish reading chapter 2 this evening (it's already late :( ), I like the book, things are soo clearly explained

Bricolo, no you are not right. No muting transistors are involved. [In fact I removed all muting transistors]. Muting comes from the servo panel, that is connected to pin 23 or pad of SAA7210 and goes straight to the pin 11 of the SAA7210. Pin 11 of the digital signal processor is a muting-in connection.
So the muting is done in the digital signal processor before the NON-OS DAC.

In my Philips CD931 I did not experience this muting problem when taking off I2S signals for my NON-OS DAC: [SAA7310]->[74HC125]->[TDA1543]->[OPA604]->[discrete ouputbuffer].


:cool:

Yeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssssss!!!
Hey Elso, the trick works wonders.
I made it yesterday at night, and it's beautiful.:bawling:
I don't have the muting transistors too, that's one of the first things I remove.;)
Now I have the internal TDA1541 in NOS mode (and muting:D ) and my board with TDA1543 in nos mode (and muting too:D ).
Gotta A-B that thing.:cool:
Gotta buy you a beer, man.:drink:

OK,


And how is the whole thing connected before any mod?

Decoder to 7220 mute in, and after?
