Series/Parallel Equivalent Circuits in Excel: Summer Circuitscollection

This document describes a simple circuit designed to provide external access to an unused digital output of a CD or DVD drive in a PC. The circuit uses a Toshiba Toslink optical transmitter module to provide an electrically isolated interface. It can also be useful for connecting portable MD recorders, which typically only have digital optical inputs. The circuit provides additional decoupling for the transmitter module using an inductor, capacitor and two capacitors to reduce interference from the PC environment.

036 Series/Parallel Equivalent Circuits in Excel


K. Walraven
We all complain occasionally about Microsoft, but the advan-
tage of their monopoly position is that everyone has the same
programs. As a result, in spite of everything there is at least a
sort of standardisation. The program described here runs
under Excel and calculates the serial and parallel values of
resistors and capacitors.
You can enter up to four values in the input section, and the
output section displays the both the calculated value and the
result rounded to the nearest value in the E12 series. Enter the
values with all necessary zeros, thus ‘3400’ instead of ‘3k4’
and ‘4000000’ instead of ‘4 M’. If you want to leave a cell
empty, don’t type a zero, since the program won’t like this (due
to divide-by-zero problems). Instead, type any arbitrary value
and then delete it. You can also use decimal values, with a
period as a separator. You don’t have to enter commas to sep-
arate the thousands; Excel will generate them automatically.
The formulas behind this program are not especially complex.
A series circuit simply involves summing the values, and a
parallel circuit is calculated by adding up the 1/Rx values and
then computing the inverse value of the sum. computes the E12 value, see the article ‘E12 in Excel’ else-

025 Salida óptica S / PDIF


Este pequeño circuito está diseñado para proporcionar acceso externo a una salida digital no utilizada de una unidad de CD o
DVD en una PC. Proporciona una interfaz aislada eléctricamente. Además, este circuito también es útil para conectar una
grabadora de MD (portátil), ya que estos dispositivos generalmente solo tienen entradas digitales ópticas.
El circuito es una aplicación estándar para el módulo transmisor Toshiba Toslink. Debido a la gran cantidad de interferencia
presente en el entorno de la PC, L1, C1 y C2 proporcionan un desacoplamiento adicional para el módulo transmisor. Se puede
conectar un pequeño conector de alimentación de PC al encabezado del pin K1 (preste especial atención a la orientación; +5 V es
rojo). El cable para la salida S / PDIF del reproductor de CD o DVD se puede conectar a K2. Asegúrese de que la señal y los
cables de tierra estén correctamente conectado. Un cable apantallado adecuado a menudo se proporciona con un reproductor que
tiene una salida S / PDIF. De lo contrario, puede hacer su propio cable apantallado de un solo cable, con un conector bipolar para
un encabezado de clavija en cada extremo.
La mayoría de los variadores proporcionan un nivel lógico estándar en la salida de audio digital, y esta señal puede conectarse
directamente a la entrada del transmisor Toslink sin ninguna modificación. El circuito consume aproximadamente 13 mA.Solo
hay un comentario adicional. Parece que cierto CD y las unidades de DVD proporcionan una señal en la salida S / PDIF solo
cuando se está reproduciendo un CD (ni siquiera hay un reloj S / PDIF si no se está reproduciendo ningún disco). Esto significa
que una grabadora perderá una pequeña parte de la señal cuando comience a reproducirse un CD de audio, ya que el PLL del
circuito de extracción del reloj debe volver a bloquearse en la señal del reloj.
