COMMON ANAlOGUE GROUNDING
ISSUES
Correctly connecting the Octadrive DSP-DN to ground has
several benefits. A full discussion of the issues involved can
be found at
http://www.duran-audio.com
;
Basic points to observe are:
1 . Safety .
The GND terminal of the PowerCon
®
mains
connector provides a direct low impedance path from the
metal parts of the chassis to ground. Always connect this
terminal.
2 . Reduction of RF emission .
Although the Octadrive
DSP-DN electronics are well shielded and external
connections are decoupled to prevent RF emission from
the internal high speed digital circuits, this protection will
not work properly if the chassis is not connected to ground.
3 . RF Immunity .
RF currents induced in the signal cables by
external RF fields are effectively shorted to chassis ground,
provided that the cable screen (shield) is of sufficiently low
impedance.
The pins with a “ground” symbol on the audio line
Input/Output connectors, ANS/Paging mic / PTT connector
as well as the temperature sensor connector are connected
internally directly to the chassis of the Octadrive. These
pins are for connecting the screen (shield) of the audio and
sensor cables.
