Grounding question regarding an active crossover

Alcaid · 18th March 2004, 01:48 PM

Is it important to keep seperate power- and signal-grounds and then connect them together at a single point, or can you just ground randomly in an active crossover?

I used one signal star ground and one power star ground per PCB (HP or LP channel) and then ran these all back to the power supply.

Was it a double sided PCB or a single sided? Have you got a picture of it (traces and component-overlay)
