Jeg er lidt newbie i denne her elektronik verden, så vær lidt overbærende...
Affødt af tråden "Coax SPDIF til Optisk SPDIF" har jeg har fundet nedenstående diagram over hvordan man kan lave en converter fra S/PDIF til Toslink (optisk S/PDIF). Det er jo relativt enkelt, ser det ud til - men der står ikke hvor stor modstanden skal være. Hvordan finder jeg lige ud af det? Jeg har jo ikke lyst til at brænde noget af... Og er der nogen der har en idé om hvad sådan en diode hedder? Har kigget på elektronik-lavpris.dk men der er jo ca. 1 milliard forskellige dioder - og med mere end 2 ben. En pointer i den rigtige retning er meget velkommen :)

Very cheap optical S/PDIF output With TOSLINK modules available for as low as $10 it hardly seems worth it to bother with the trouble of making your own TOSLINK module due to the fact that the ones from Sharp have a built-in connector and are much easier to interface. But if you really want to make your own optical output interface, you can do it because S/PDIF optical (Toslink) transmitter is just basically a red LED coupled to the optical fiber. So to build a very basic output circuit you only need a red LED and a resistor, both available from any place where electronic components are sold.
The circuit is very simple:
_____ TTL signal -------|_____|--------+ | --- V LED --- | Ground -----------------------+
The idea of the circuit is that the digital data is fed through a series current limiting resistor to the LED (typically LEDs only require 5-30mA). A digital 0 is 0V and the LED is off. A digital 1 is +5V and the LED is on. That's it!
If for some reason the circuit does not work, try to change the LED and also try to connecting it better to the optical fiber. NOTE: Not all LEDs will work, so you may have to experiment a bit. Optimally, you want a high-brightness RED LED with a typical wavelength of 660nm.
If swapping the LED doesn't work, you might want to try using a hex inverter (7404 or similar IC) to buffer the signal. This might be good practice too, just in case the TTL SPDIF output of your source device isn't designed to handle a 20~30mA load this circuit generates.
