MMTS20 Stereo Encoder

The R.L. Drake MMTS20 Stereo Encoder is part of the Drake Mini-Rack family designed to optimize rack space. The MMTS20 is an MTS stereo encoder which accepts left and right audio inputs and generates a composite BTSC format stereo signal. The composite signal is applied to the audio input of a compatible audio/video modulator . The modular design permits convenient pairing with a mini-rack modulator such as the VMM600, VMM806, or VMM806AG in a multiple unit rack configuration.

MMTS20 Technical Specifications
Composite Output
Output Impedance:

100 Ohms, intended to drive high impedance audio input of paired A/V modulator.

Output Level:

10 mV/kHz, ±10%
1.1 Vp-p for a 100% modulated signal

Video Input
Input Level range:

0.5 Vp-p to 2 Vp-p

Input Impedance:

High impedance, intended to be paralleled with paired A/V modulator.

Audio Input
Input Level:

250 mVrms to 2.5V. with front panel adjustment

Input Impedance:

40K Ohms, balanced
20K Ohms, unbalanced

Stereo Performance     (Note: System performance is dependant upon paired modulator.)
Stereo Separation:

Greater than 20 dB

 Frequency Response: within ±1dB from 40Hz to 12.5KHz
Signal to Noise Ratio:

greater than 65 dB

Total Harmonic Distortion:

less than 0.25%

 Spurious Subcarrier:

-50dBc worst case

Test Tone
Frequency:
