Hi guys,
I'm planning an ultra-portable stereo designed to hook up to a laptop. The plan is to have the DAC (I'm using diyparadise's Monica 2) and a custom class-D amp run off the same 12V switching power supply that the laptop is using, while the laptop runs in power-saving mode operated by a remote.
The general circuit tests out, and everything can run without hitting current output limits on the SMPS. However the problem is that there is inavoidably a lot of noise in the PS, whether it's from the class-D or the laptop or the PSU itself. Is there a simple LC-decoupling/bypassing circuit that I can use to decouple the entire noise-sensitive DAC without lowering the supply voltage? What would be suitable values?
Thanks in advance
