那就是Lightspeed Passive Attenuator了,
核心元件是光耦了。
Lightspeed Passive Attenuator
The Lightspeed Passive Attenuator designed by George Stantscheff (GeorgeHiFi on the audio forums) is by far the very best passive attenuator that I have heard. There is perfect clarity, a widened soundstage, separation of instruments, and seemingly infinite detail. What makes this passive preamplifier interesting is that there are no contact points in the form of a "wiper" as in the case of a potentiometer or "switches" as may be with a discrete stepped attenuator. The key components in the Lightspeed Attenuator are Silonex NSL-32SR2 Optocouplers (PDF - 34kB). The optocoupler device is a sealed unit which consists of a high performance LED that shines on a light dependent resistor (LDR).

光速被动衰减器
这由George Stantscheff(在音频论坛的George HiFi)设计的光速被动衰减器是到目前为止我所知道的最最好的被动衰减器,有着完美的透明、宽广的声场、良好的定位、和极为丰富的细节。这前置引人注意的是它没有像滑臂式电位器的滑动摩擦的触点或步进衰减器的转换触点。光速衰减器的关键元件是Silonex NSL-32SR2光耦(PDF-34KB),这光耦器是封装在一起的由高性能的LED照射光依赖电阻(LDR)组成。
The operating principle of the optocoupler is fairly simple. As the intensity of the LED varies, so does the internal resistance of the LDR (resistance decreases with increasing light). So in the case of the Lightspeed Attenuator, we change the volume (resistance) by changing the intensity of the LED. By using a series and shunt combination of optocouplers the attenuator can be configured to produces a constant input and output impedance, regardless of where the voltage control setting is.
It is worth mentioning that the Lightspeed Passive Attenuator is not for every audio system though. First off, it is a passive attenuator so there is no gain. Also, your source output impedance needs to be less than about 100 ohms which makes it suitable for use with several sources. The Lightspeed Attenuator works best with amplifiers that have input impedance greater than about 50k. If you would like to use the attenuator with a low input impedance amplifier best results are achieved by using a suitable buffer between the attenuator and amplifier.

这光耦的工作原理非常简单,由于LED光强度的变化,引起LDR内阻的变化(阻值随光强度的增加而减少)。因此对于光速衰减器来说,我们通过改变LED的光度来改变阻值。通过使用光耦衰减器的串联和分流相结合可以配置成恒定的输入和输出阻抗,而与控制电压无关。
光耦衰减器并不适用于全部的音频系统,首先,它是被动衰减器所以它是没有增益的,也要求你的音源输出阻抗小于100欧姆,这样可以适合用几个音源。光耦衰减器连接输入阻抗大于大约50K欧姆的放大器工作最佳,如果你想将这衰减器用于低输入阻抗的放大器通过用合适的缓冲置于衰减器和放大器之间可以获得好结果。 |
