buffer pedals Buffer PCB

buffer pedals Buffer PCBA tiny buffer circuit to use as part of another circuit or by itself. Simple layout and clean sound with unity gain. Use on boards with many true bypass pedals, or to buffer a longer cable run to prevent signal loss. Includes the circuit board only. The LED positive leg connects to the "LED" pad, and the negative lead connects to power supply ground. The 6k8 resistor may be adjusted to a higher value for a more dim LED, or lower value for a brighter

A tiny buffer circuit to use as part of another circuit or by itself. Simple layout and clean sound with unity gain. Use on boards with many true bypass pedals, or to buffer a longer cable run to prevent signal loss. Includes the circuit board only.

The LED positive leg connects to the "LED" pad, and the negative lead connects to power supply ground. The 6k8 resistor may be adjusted to a higher value for a more dim LED, or lower value for a brighter LED (330 Ohms minimum for 9V). If no LED is required, the 6k8 resistor may be omitted and the "LED" pad requires no connection.

The circuit may be run at 9V or up to 18V with the parts listed below.
