oof no help here man, my backround is construction. you should change the title to something with the word schematic in it.
It should say right on the schematic "VCC", "GND", etc. I don't know why it doesn't. I can't make out anything from that.
1 = GND 2 = +Left 3 = (not shown) left jack ground 4 = right jack ground 5 = +Right 3 & 4 just ground the input jacks when you aren't using them so that the equipment won't hum. edit: There are no VCC and GND. It's a stereo input jack, not an IC chip.
Looks like a diagram of a RTS (Ring-Tip-Sleeve) input jack. This type of connector is most often used for the following: 1. If it is a mini-jack, then for a stereo L/R connection (like to a PC or MP3 player). 2. If it is a 1/4" jack, then for either a balanced line (microphone level) connection or a send/return (on a audio mixer) connection. A RTS jack has three wires, one connected to the ring (ground), one connected to the sleeve, and one connected to the tip. A 1/4" RTS looks like the following... http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&Partnumber=090-305 Notice the 2 black insulator rings separating the plug tip into 3 sections: ring, tip and sleeve.
Thanks for the inputs guys, i still can't get this work . I'm not sure if my 1/4 jack is correct. Its the switchcraft 11, it has a tip and a sleeve, i ground the sleeve and stick the tip into a IC. Still nothing. I tried the 3.5mm he said and it didn't make a sound. Trying to make a small amplifier. Would it just be easier to stick the output of the IC into a little speaker than to stick it to this 3.5mm jack to hear it thru headphones? Thanks
