Looks very similar to this design:

which I have been considering building one for a few months, as the schematic and source code is out there.

What PIC did you use for your design, as that seems like a good price for a kit, except for the shipping charges!

That 's right. And if you can find some cdrom drive that have
digital out like my ASUS CD-S520. I use digital out to my DAC coupling by 30 turn on small ferrite ring core and sound good.

This 's show Playing.

Tonight I will take photo and show you.

ah, ok.

so, jason, i feel like an idiot, but there have got to be some newbies wondering... howe do you take those two pins and get a digital out? can you just goto a coax out?

jleaman · 19th March 2004, 05:17 AM

hey it is ok.. some cd rom drives dont have audio out or digital out. some are just ide or scsi..

You have to build a Dac Digital Anolgue Converter.. i am gong to build one and try this project asap as son as i get a job. ...

cowanrg · 19th March 2004, 05:23 AM

ok. i knew about the DAC thing.

i was just wondering how you got from a 2-pin to a coax...
can you just take the two pins and connect them to a RCA jack, then to a dac huh? if so, i think i might go for this project, it sounds good!
