A phone connector (tip, ring, sleeve) also called an audio jack, phone plug, jack plug, stereo plug, mini-jack, or mini-stereo. This includes the original 6.35 mm (quarter inch) jack and the more recent 3.5 mm (miniature or 1/8 inch) and 2.5 mm (subminiature) jacks, both mono and stereo versions. There also exists 4.4 mm Pentaconn connectors.
A diagram of monaural sound. Monaural sound or monophonic sound (often shortened to mono) is sound intended to be heard as if it were emanating from one position. [1] This contrasts with stereophonic sound or stereo, which uses two separate audio channels to reproduce sound from two microphones on the right and left side, which is reproduced with two separate loudspeakers to give a sense of ...
Three RCA connectors - yellow for composite video, and white and red for stereo audio RCA connector: Widely used in consumer electronics for audio and video. A single connector must be used for each signal. SCART: Consumer electronics, mostly in Europe. Carries analog stereo sound, along with composite video and/or RGB video.
Although mini-DIN connectors are used for S-Video connections, composite video, component video, and analog audio (mono or stereo) all use RCA connectors unless the signals are sent via SCART. In the digital realm, however, combined A/V connectors are gaining ground: HDMI is commonly used today for consumer electronics; and DisplayPort , a ...
Mono equipment receiving stereo output will simply use the left (tip) channel as the mono input signal and lose the right (ring) channel of the stereo audio. The positive (tip) component of a balanced signal will be received, though without the full benefits of balanced audio, since the signal's negative (ring) component will be lost.
AES3 was designed primarily to support stereo PCM encoded audio in either DAT format at 48 kHz or CD format at 44.1 kHz. No attempt was made to use a carrier able to support both rates; instead, AES3 allows the data to be run at any rate, and encoding the clock and the data together using biphase mark code (BMC).
This applies to both mono and stereo transmissions. For stereo, pre-emphasis is applied to the left and right channels before multiplexing. The use of pre-emphasis becomes a problem because many forms of contemporary music contain more high-frequency energy than the musical styles which prevailed at the birth of FM broadcasting.
A bridge-tied load (BTL), also known as bridged transformerless and bridged mono, is an output configuration for audio amplifiers, a form of impedance bridging used mainly in professional audio & car applications. [1] The two channels of a stereo amplifier are fed the same monaural audio signal, with one channel's electrical polarity reversed.
