  • High precision op amp upgrade for auto-cal

    LDR3x.V2.1 Auto-Cal High Precision Op Amp Upgrade

    $20.00
    We are no longer selling this item due to it being discontinued by the manufacturer.  Unless and until we identify a compatible op amp with superior performance, we will continue to use the LT1014 as our standard op amp for auto-calibration feedback.  

    This is a high precision, low noise upgrade to the auto-calibration (auto-cal) op amp used in the V2.1 version of the LDR3x Passive Preamp Controller.

    The current op amp upgrade is the Burr-Brown (TI) OPA4251 quad op amp. This is a very low noise op amps with 120 db power supply rejection ratio.

    The benefits of this upgrade include:

    1) Ability to power the LDR3x.V2.1 board with up to 30 VDC supply voltage (vs. stock ~12 VDC)

    2) Improved overall accuracy of your V2.1 preamp’s attenuation and channel balance which is critical to sound stage and stereo imaging

    3) Improved speed, accuracy and reliability of the auto-cal process.

  • Type A USB port with cable

    USB Port & Cable

    $15.00

    This 1 foot cable makes it easy to provide an externally accessible USB connection port to update firmware in a LDR3x Passive Preamp Controller located within an enclosure.

    One end of the cable provides a type A USB port that can be attached via 2 screws to a panel. The other end has 5 pin female header that connects to the J8 5 pin male header on the LDR3x board.

    For those with a V2 board that already has a micro-USB port board soldered onto the J8 header, you’ll need to first remove that board from the J8 header. We recommend this be done by carefully cutting up the micro-USB port around the pins using a plier/cutter and then using a solder iron to remove any remaining materials from the J8 pins.
