Sound card input impendence

Sep 10, 2004 1 Replies

Hi all,



I'm using my sound card for data acquisition. It is inbuilt on my Intel 845GL motherboard, named Avance AC97 Audio.



I need to know the input impendence(line in port) for calculating coupling capacitor. Also interested to know max p-p voltage?



Any help in highly appreciated.



Thanks

it varies among sound cards a bit but 5k ohm on some Mic inputs and 50K on line inputs. these are just some. the levels for the line in are usually around .3 to .6 p-p and mic input levels can be very sensitive and very alot among sound cards. if you work around .050 for the max average i think you should be ok.
