Xbox 360 Slim Coax Digital Out
« on: April 03, 2012, 03:10:00 AM »
You need to convert the TTL signal to a coax one. I used the schematic from kilpatrick's site, but the link has been non-functional for a while, and google doesn't help.

The reason it may not be working is due to the limited fan-out of the spdif signal line. In which case, unsolder 25 and try again.

If you can't get the onboard to work, get a toslink transmitter off digikey (it's like $5), and connect 25 to signal, 27 to ground, and 29 to power - read the respective datasheet for which is which.

Here's an example:

Go to page 3. Use the SPDIF signal as input to the dual inverter-based driver, the voltage for voltage, and ground as ground. Remember that pin 14 of a 14-pin DIP is V_CC and pin 7 is GND. Parts should run you $10-ish + shipping.
