True, but I need to fan out. Getting TTL (ish) enough to drive a 485 chip from a 0.6V SPDIF signal?

Thanks - a slightly different approach to the one I was thinking about. The SPDIF input goes into a 485 differential receiver. You think that would work reliably given the low SPDIF voltage? If so, I could just do a 485 diff i/p straight through to a 485 diff o/p feeding 3 xformers (I need a 1 to 3 fanout, isolated) -- Dirk http://www.transcendence.me.uk/ - Transcendence UK http://www.theconsensus.org/ - A UK political party http://www.blogtalkradio.com/onetribe - Occult Talk Show |
