Pin name, function and remarks
Voltage
〈REC AGC FILTER〉
• REC AGC filter.
13
• The attack characteristics of the recording amplifier
can be adjusted using the CR circuit.
REC: 0V
PB: 0V
• Reduce the CR circuit GND-side impedance to
improve the common-mode distortion.

〈REC CURRENT SENSE〉
• Terminal for monitoring the recording current.
14
• Open emitter output.
• The REC AGC output current can be adjusted with
REC: 0.58V
PB: 0V
the R value.
e.g. 12Ω...48.2mAP-P, 15Ω...38.6mAP-P
15
〈REC OUT〉
14
• Recording amplifier output and head switch.
15
• Open collector output.
• The head switch turns on and off in accordance with
REC: 4.1V
PB: 0V
the REC / PB control signal
〈MAIN GND〉
16
• Earth for circuits other than the preamplifier.

—
• Reference potential for the IC
〈PRE AC-FB ch1〉
• AC feedback terminal for the playback amplifier
17
(ch1).
REC: 0V
PB: 0.8V
• The high-frequency characteristics of the playback
amplifier can be adjusted with the R value
〈PRE IN ch1〉
• Input terminal for the playback amplifier (ch1).
• The low-frequency cutoff characteristics can be
adjusted with the value of the input coupling
18
capacitor.
REC: 0V
PB: 0.7V
• The frequency characteristics can be adjusted so
that it is flat with the L value of the rotary
transformer, and the external capacitor C (100pF
etc.).
