Every time I build an audio project I get an electric noise or a long beep on the audio output like the headphone out. This time Im working with an MP3 player that requires a 100uf capacitor in series with the line out. The noise is annoying?
Whats the problem? Grounding? Need to add extra components?
This is the mp3 im using

The circuit is on the pdf file at the bottom.
The noise is a noise! Like a long beep
Thanks!

My car has a noisy engine. What's the problem? :rolleyes:

Like that question I can't answer yours without more info.---

What type of noise are you having?

Show a diagram of how you are connecting it.

OK so what I learn is that never connect the audio ground to the power supply ground (-) it will make a noise. The audio ground must be connecter to the GND of the audio source (mp3 player, mixer board...).
I know is an onvious thing to do for you guys but it wasn't for me.
Thank you all!
