In this article we have short listed a few easy to follow steps to help you get the most out from our Discrete Opamps .
Further Optimize your Discrete Op-Amp
- Please solder your Discrete Op-Amp directly to the PCB board instead of using a socket. Silver loaded solder will yield the best result.
- Please solder a good quality foil capacitor (MKP caps) across the power intake pins (V+ and V-). You can try different value capacitor between 0.1uf to 1uf. Please see diagram below for the different pin setting on the single and double Discrete Op-Amp.
- Power coupling cap is another key to further enhance the performance of our Discrete Op-Amp. Some budget CD player will only have a few low value low quality power coupling caps for their audio stage. It is recommendable to change them to slightly higher value and better quality type (Elna Slimic or For Audio range, Blackgate and etc…). Our Discrete Op-Amp will take full advantage of the stable power and give you music in a way the musician intended.
